Our Practitioners

Valentina Cortini-Nutt is the founder of the first officially recognised Pranic Energy Healing Centre in Africa and the visionary behind Wings & Me and the NPC Pranic Energy Healing Africa.

Originally trained as an interior designer, Valentina spent many years transforming physical spaces before discovering her deeper calling: helping people transform their inner world. Since then, she has dedicated her life to studying, teaching, and sharing practical tools for healing, personal growth, and spiritual development.

A certified Pranic Energy Healing Instructor, she teaches Technology of Feeling Subtle Energy (TFSE) and Pranic Energy Healing Level 1, making ancient energy-based teachings accessible and relevant to modern life. She is also the creator of Somatic Neuroplasticity Therapy, a holistic approach that combines body awareness, mindset transformation, and self-healing principles to help individuals release limiting patterns and reconnect with their innate potential.

Valentina is the author of numerous self-development books, including Power Up!, The Quiet Mind, The Ultimate Grounding Guide, The Karma Cure, and Soul Awakening. Her writing reflects her belief that personal growth and healing should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their circumstances.

As a long-time practitioner of The Path to Arhatship spiritual path, educator, therapist and humanitarian, Valentina's mission is simple: to empower people to heal themselves, discover their inner strength, and live with greater purpose, joy, and awareness.

When she is not teaching, writing, or working with clients, she can often be found walking in nature, cooking for her family, or developing new projects that support healing, education and unity across Africa.

Resident Psychologist

Nicaela believes that every individual's story is unique and deserving of understanding, compassion, and respect. Her personal experiences, combined with her professional training, have shaped a deeply empathetic and holistic approach to psychological wellbeing.

Having witnessed both the power of meaningful connection and the challenges that can arise from feeling disconnected from oneself or others, Nicaela is passionate about creating a therapeutic space where clients feel safe, heard, and empowered. She understands that seeking support can be a courageous step and strives to foster a trusting relationship in which healing, self-discovery, and personal growth can unfold.

Her approach is collaborative and client-centred, allowing her to gain a deep understanding of each person's experiences, strengths, and challenges. Recognising the complexity of human identity, Nicaela works with sensitivity to the many factors that shape our lives, including culture, race, gender, sexuality, relationships, and life experiences.

Through therapy, she supports clients in developing greater self-awareness, resilience, and emotional wellbeing, helping them build healthier relationships with themselves, others, and the world around them.
