Meet Demi
Demi Schneider DHP, HPD, SFBT Dip GQHP
Clinical Hypnotherapist & Psychotherapist
Solution Focused Brief Therapist
Louise Hay Facilitator
Compassion Key Practitioner
I began facilitating workshops and retreats in 2002 and have since trained across a rich range of therapeutic approaches.
Over the years I have woven these into a deeply personal, intuitive and transformational way of working — shaped by both professional training and lived experience.
I founded Depression Busting Courses in 2010 and The Fundamental Shift in 2018.
I am also the author of two published books.
I am now in my third decade of supporting women through stress, anxiety, overwhelm and depression — guiding them back to clarity, confidence, self trust and a genuine sense of self.
My Approach
My work brings together therapeutic understanding, intuitive depth and real-life experience — supporting women to move out of struggle and into a completely different way of being.
In my private Devon Retreats we work through my powerful Three Pillar system in a deeply personalised way, supported by transformational resources, five follow-up sessions and a year of ongoing support, so you can confidently walk your new path.
In my Turkiye Retreats, I bring together the power of group work within deeply experiential sessions, giving individual attention, spacious reflection and soul-renewing experiences in beautiful surroundings. A detailed follow-up session and available ongoing support ensure this is far more than a week away.
A comprehensive follow up session and 12 months of ongoing support offers far more than just a week’s retreat.
Each retreat also has its own dedicated Companion File to provide everything that you need for ongoing integration.
Women say they leave feeling:
- seen, heard, acknowledged and authentically understood
- gently guided beyond where they felt stuck
- able to move forward in a new way
- clearer, lighter and more confident
- filled with greater love, direction and purpose
A Personal Note
I have been on this journey myself. I can understand how anxiety and depression can feel — and what it takes to move beyond them.
Over the past 30 years I have done that work in my own life, creating a way of living that feels grounded, joyful and aligned. Through recognising and redefining my patterns — including deeply held inherited dynamics — reclaiming my own authority, and learning to genuinely love and trust myself, the whole trajectory of my life changed — as well as what I began to attract and experience.
I decided my mission in life was to share all I’d learnt with as many other women as possible so they too could make this transformational journey for themselves — yet in a much shorter, simpler, easier way than the long, arduous route it took me!
My intention is to offer you a space where meaningful change can happen — in a way that feels supported, personal and real.
What You Can Expect From Me
I am known for my warmth, care, compassion and non-judgement.
I create a space where you feel safe, understood and supported — while being gently guided forward.
You are met with care, clarity and genuine presence throughout.
