My initial consultation sessions are free of charge and carry no obligation. Please use the menu on the right to learn more about what I offer, or view this slideshow.
I use an integrative approach; this means that different models of therapy are used together creatively, making a unique blend for each individual client. Whatever requirements you may have in terms of bodywork treatments and counselling, whatever you need, I am very happy to tailor sessions to suit you. If you're not sure what would be best, feel free to call or email me.
I am a Humanistic practioner and a member of the UKAHPP. The following statements are part of our core beliefs:
The aim of personal growth is self awareness and actualisation This means in part:
1. to bring oneself to a state of wholeness and completion in whatever way one experiences this;
2. to gain sovereignty over one's life, to be authentic;
3. to be emotionally competent and to further one's creativity and one's search for truth, meaning, love and relationship with oneself and with others;
4. to relate to others in ways that demonstrate awareness of and respect for difference;
5. to heal past and current wounds and traumas;
6. to achieve integrity and autonomy while acknowledging mutual interdependence with others and with the environment.
Bodymind Integration is powerful and genuinely holistic way of helping you heal the past and make sense of the present to make more of your future. It uses hands-on deep bodywork integrated with a variety of supportive methods to create deep and lasting change.
Postural Integration is a deep bodywork method structured around a series of 10 systematic 'bodyfocus' steps that involve deep tissue manipulation in all areas of the body, allowing fresh energies to emerge and improving your sense of well-being.
Pulsing is a wonderful treatment to help you move more freely and feel more alive. It is a rhythmic, rocking, movement-based bodywork and is perhaps the most deeply relaxing and most nurturing form of bodywork.
Whether you're struggling with stress, anger, diet or anything else I can help you manage your difficulties and equip with you with practical tools to assist in everyday life.
The aim of trauma therapy is to help you reduce levels of post-traumatic stress (PTSD) and improve the quality of your day-to-day life, to re-establish your sense of control, diminish the anxiety and rebalance the body's systems.
This is supportive talk-based counselling, but combined with some gentle breathwork and movement awareness, connecting you to the resources available in your body, while focussing primarily on your need for support.
Bioenergetic massage treats you as a whole person; it carries all the benefits of conventional massage, but additionally works with connection and energetic charge to ensure your whole being benefits.
I incorporate the use of subtle energy in many of my hands-on bodywork approaches. I am also happy to offer sessions of healing energy work using specific methods such as Metamorphic Technique and Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki.
People exploring alternative spiritual & mystic practices often find they have insufficient support in making sense of their experiences of altered states, alternate reality and liminal spaces. I can help you gain clarity about your experiences and provide support and advice.
I offer online and telephone counselling and support for those whose circumstances do not allow them to travel or who simply prefer not to meet face-to-face.
