Empowering You to Heal at the Root
Integrative mind–body therapy for lasting change.
Integrative mind–body therapy for lasting change.
At Nature’s Purpose, we go beyond managing symptoms to work at the root of what’s keeping you stuck.
We believe the answers aren’t outside you. Many challenges come from unprocessed stress, emotional blockages, and protective belief patterns that no longer serve you. Your body carries the wisdom of what it truly needs. Our work is about helping you access that inner knowing, gently bringing awareness to what’s ready to shift, and activating your body’s natural capacity for healing.
Each pathway is tailored to meet you where you’re at. Listen to your body and choose what resonates.

New Client FormRoot Cause and CTC sessions involve prep. Once I receive your details, we’ll arrange your appointment within a day or two.
You’ll be asked to lie down face up and simply relax. I’ll guide you much like a meditation or light hypnosis, so your only job is to stay present, breathe, and follow along. The more you let go, the easier it is for your mind to slip into a calm “theta” state—the same state we enter just before sleep or when daydreaming. That’s where deep healing and release can happen most naturally.
Most of the time you won’t need to talk during the session, except in Somatic Reflection sessions where sharing what arises is part of the process. Otherwise, you can just allow the process to unfold while I guide the work for you.
Many clients notice immediate shifts—relief, renewed energy, and clarity to make empowered choices. After addressing root causes and clearing emotional blockages, your mind naturally begins sorting through old “schemas”—the mental patterns and beliefs you’ve carried. Some will no longer fit who you are becoming.
This is a time of integration. You’ll be invited to build healthier pathways that serve you now, supported by simple practices and tips after your session. Like any therapy, growth continues between appointments—the more you put in, the more you’ll receive.
As new layers surface, you may feel called to return and explore further. I’ll be here to support you, but the heart of this work is empowering you to step fully into your own strength and potential.

I’m Matthew Barrie, an integrative therapist based in Napier, Hawke’s Bay. My specialty is helping people clear the root causes of what’s keeping them stuck — whether that’s stress, trauma, recurring patterns, or life transitions.
Alongside these, I draw on muscle testing, somatic awareness, and other tools to create tailored sessions that meet you where you’re at.
Why I do this work: From an early age, I saw how unprocessed stress, trauma, and limiting beliefs can shape our lives. As a child, I struggled with chronic fatigue and countless food intolerances, which made eating a daily challenge. Traditional Western interventions, focused only on treating symptoms, were largely ineffective. My experience taught me that true improvement—especially with chronic conditions—comes from listening to my own body, not just relying on outside opinions or diagnoses. When I finally discovered CTC, the root causes of my food intolerances were transformed, and I’ve never been the same since. Now it is my passion and joy to share what I’ve learned, raising awareness and supporting others on their own healing journeys.
