What I offer

My approach is grounded in a person centered approach, with specialisation in somatic based therapy and trauma resolution. As and where appropriate I integrate traditional wisdom and healing practices, larger systems theory (studying the social and individual impacts of culture and systems such as racism, sexism, consumerism, etc). I believe that we heal and evolve as a collective, and that our individual healing is part of the collective healing and vice versa. 

I work to support clients to accept and welcome all of themselves, and all of their experience; and tune into and nourish their inherent sense of self compassion, connection and wellbeing…. I will support you to position yourself in relationship to your self: your past, present and future: in a way that is life affirming, and to thrive where your two feet are planted, at any given moment.

In my career I have helped individuals and organisations to depathologise, understand and resolve the impact of individual and systemic trauma in their lives; and befriend and dance with their innate capacity for self compassion, well being and joy.  

I use a variety of tools and modalities and tailor them to each individual client, their therapeutic goals, time line of our work together and each cleint’s personal preferences.

My work as a practitioner is to support you to reinhabit your expereince and body safely, identify and live from your strengths, nourish intentionally what nourishes you, find your own solutions, live and love more fully, honouring what you value and construct a creative, compassionate and empowering frame to hold yourself and circumstances within.

I also integrate psychodeducation into sessions and love sharing tools and information that change the way we think, feel and relate: enriching and transforming our sense of self, relationships, lives and society. 

I offer both short and long term therapy. I work in a culturally sensitive way, drawing from the modalities of Somatic psychotherapy; Psychoeducation, Ecopsychology, Trauma informed stabilisation, parts and integration work (including IFS work) and (for in person clients) Equine Facilitated Therapy.
