Transformational Retreats for Women Ready to Move Beyond Anxiety & Depression

About Demi Schneider

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 range of therapeutic approaches.

Over the years, I have integrated these into a deeply personal and intuitive 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 individual retreats in Devon we work through my powerful Three Pillar system, with a clear focus for each stage, shaped entirely around you. Five follow up sessions and 12 months of ongoing support ensure that you can confidently walk your new path.

In my Turkiye retreats, we encompass the opportunities of group work within our experiential sessions, with individual attention for greater honing. The extra time allows inbuilt time for reflection and assimilation, as well as your soul-rejuvenation in the beautiful excursions.

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.

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.
