“Tameer has wholeheartedly accompanied my daughter since she was four years old in her journey to process, integrate and heal a parallel life trauma that has manifested as a very specific and paralyzing phobia.
After first meeting with me remotely, Tameer was able to connect with my daughter’s energy field and provide a thorough assessment, various healing modalities and parent education to help turn what was a daily crisis into a more manageable and hope-filled situation.
Tameer continues to promptly and enthusiastically support my daughter with any imbalances in her energy field and Tameer has helped us continue pulling off the layers of trauma like one would peel an onion.
Above all else, Tameer is a wise, loving and peaceful healer who will use her gifts to help you as she simultaneously empowers you to help yourself.” KS USA
About Tameer
Life Experience
Early Years
Born and raised in Vancouver, Canada, I attended UBC, and left to work in Browndale, a private residential Treatment Center on Salt Spring Island for "disturbed" teens.
At age 22 I traveled to the Swiss Alps with my boyfriend for a one month working holiday...
Which, unexpectedly morphed into a 4 year backpacking odyssey from Europe across Asia to Hawaii in the early '70s, when there were no travel books, internet shops or cellphones.
And postcards took a month to arrive home.
We lived on $5./day including food, transportation and accommodation.
We traveled overland, village to village on local buses and trains, from Greece to Turkey, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Persia, India, Nepal, Indonesia, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Philippines, Taiwan, Japan and Hawaii.
And finally home again to Canada, changed forever!
It became an amazing series of extraordinary exotic adventures into the unknown ... an endless parade of mind and soul challenging and expanding experiences.
In the early 80s I attended Alberta College of Art and Design.
In the mid 90s I graduated from Emily Carr College of Art and Design.
Shortly after, I founded and directed a non-profit Fine Arts Studio in Vancouver called Eureka, created for adult artists with multiple severe disabilities, most of whom had lived their whole lives in residential care.
As aspiring artists, they experienced themselves as purposeful whole beings with unique talents, often for the first time ever. Their lives became rich with potential and possibilities.
Critical to its success were the many volunteer professional artists and engineers, who supported the participants and created adapted tools and equipment as needed.
We all benefited, beyond words!
Later years
In the late 90s, in my late 50s, I resumed traveling, back to Asia, this time on my own.
I spent 16 years in Thailand.
The first 9 years I lived a simple uncomplicated life in a small bungalow right on the beach, on a small southern island called Koh Samui.
No hot water, sporadic electricity, single burner cooking, no phones or TV, no AC.
Endless sun with sandy beaches as far as the eye could see. Idyllic!
I then moved to the north, to Chiangmai city (2nd largest city after Bangkok) for my final 7 years.
In both places I lived for many years in or next to the jungle and learned how to be comfortable sharing accommodations with poisonous snakes, millipedes, scorpions and other local habitat.
I experienced what it is to live in a Buddhist culture.
While in Chiangmai I co-develped an English language program for young monks in local Buddhist temples. And co-created a program to help financially support a traditional Lanna Herbalist in his goal to provide free traditional remedy treatment for poor rural AIDS patients.
With local support, I also created a travel tour inviting healers from the West to visit with and learn from northern Golden Triangle traditional Hilltribe healers . They graciously shared their basic primitive homes and Shamanic ways of life, rituals, remedies and medicinal therapies.

While living in Thailand I also traveled extensively to nearby India, Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, China and Hong Kong exploring new cultures, indulging a growing interest in healing and personal spirituality.
During this time I trained in Biodynamic CranioSacral Balancing and studied various other local holistic modalities.
In Chiangmai I co-created a Healing Center called Healing Light.
I made regular trips by invitation to Hong Kong, where I provided healing for a private group of children with special needs and their families. Life was wonderful...!
In 2012 I returned to Canada to be with my family ... and thus began this current phase of my life, on Vancouver Island, as Grammy to my exceptional grandson who lives with autism.
Healing Modalities
Over the past 25 years I have received accreditation in Biodynamic CranioSacral Balancing (2005), EFT (2006), Reiki (2002), and Eden Method Energy Medicine (2016). During that time I taught myself Quantum Touch, Breath and Visualization techniques as well.
My healing sessions are now a smorgasbord of various healing modalities, depending on what is needed by the individual person or animal with whom I am working, in the moment.
Internationally, I have facilitated individual and group Energy Healing sessions and Healing Art workshops for people of all ages and abilities, in various different cultures, communities and countries.
I first started visiting ashrams in India in 1985.
This passion for presence, awareness and self-healing continues to this day.
I particularly enjoy working with beloved house pets, horses and all other animals (domesticated and wild).
“For a number of years I volunteered offering healing sessions for street dogs in a local Care for Dogs Rescue center in Chiangmai, Thailand.
I found my dear companion dog Hannah in this center. She was one of 60 abandoned street dogs in various states of ill-health.
Six months earlier she had been hit by a car and left for dead in the street. I chose her because she was so happy and full of joy.
When she came home with me, she had only 2 front legs with which to get around. Her spine was severely curved and contracted. One back leg was a stump, cut off below her hip bone, and the other was withered, dragging behind her like a wet noodle. Within a week after daily 30 minute treatments, her spine uncurled, straightening and decompressing.
After a year of weekly sessions, the muscles in her withered back limb began to strengthen to the point where she could stand on that leg. Such is the body's capacity for healing itself!
Unfortunately, she wasn't able to figure out how to walk upright on 3 legs ... too much time had passed.
I had a cart custom made so she could scoot around upright (seen in photo).
We lived in the jungle and she and her cart regularly toppled over. Ultimately, she decided it was safer and easier to use only her 2 front legs to get around while dragging her rear end ... and she was remarkably fast.
Although she was incontinent and had to receive daily hind leg stump duct tape bandaging, Hannah experienced immense joy in her life ... and she shared it generously with everyone around her.
She lived with me for 5 years before life became too difficult for her.
She taught me that happiness is a choice. ”
