In My Practise
In my practice I predominantly work with women from every season and story. I utilise somatic practices, techniques and interventions supporting women to move into a more conscious, creative, embodied, and manageable relationship with themselves and their life experiences. Not all interventions are suitable for every individual and as such, I adopt and tailor each session specifically to clients’ need at the time -
This technique uses a structured approach similar to Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). Drawing on the healing principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, tapping works much like acupuncture — but without needles.
By gently stimulating points along the body’s meridian system, it helps release blocked emotions, shift limiting beliefs, and support the healing of trauma, allowing energy to move more freely and restoring balance to the mind and body system.
Developed by Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a therapeutic approach now widely recognised for its effectiveness in supporting healing. It helps the brain naturally process and integrate difficult experiences, allowing trauma, deeply held patterns, limiting beliefs, and unhelpful behaviours to shift and resolve over time.
Bilateral Stimulation Processing, which grew out of EMDR, offers a gentle yet structured way to support this process. It’s client-centred and natural, working with your body and mind’s innate ability to move towards healing, integration, and growth — often in ways that feel organic and deeply supportive.
For centuries, traditional cultures have known the quiet power of ritual to heal. It speaks not in words, but in the language of the unconscious—through symbol, metaphor, and embodied enactment. All other work—talk, reflection, insight—may bring us to the doorway, but ritual is what gently opens it, inviting us to step across the threshold into deeper transformation.
The psyche is not a single, unbroken vessel, but a constellation of inner parts shaped by life’s trials, wounds, and challenges.
Trauma and difficult experiences can scatter these pieces, leaving the self-divided. Through mindfulness, we cultivate the strength and clarity to bear witness, to meet each part with attention and care, and to guide them into dialogue—so that the fragments may gather, and the inner world may find its harmony once more.
Trance is the quiet river that flows beneath the surface of our waking lives. Sometimes we dip into it knowingly—through dance, ritual, or guided therapy—feeling its current shape our thoughts and hearts.
Often, it carries us unseen, in daydreams, in the hum of a car, in the turn of a page, or in the shadows of our fears. Hypnotherapy is simply a lantern on this hidden river, illuminating the unseen patterns of the psyche and inviting them to reveal their secret wisdom.
Through creative therapies—painting, sculpting, drawing, movement—we step into this sacred terrain. Here, the psyche speaks in symbols, dreams unfold like constellations, and the heart of our challenges reveals their own secret paths toward wholeness.
Developmental trauma moves quietly through the body and mind. The Chakra system offers a map of energy centres—each a doorway within. By combining this ancient wisdom with modern science, we can see childhood wounds as patterns of energy, waiting to be understood, balanced, and transformed into wholeness.
Our dreams are doorways to the wisdom of the deep Self. Together, we gently explore what the unconscious—our “Dream Maker”—is trying to reveal. Sometimes the message comes quickly; sometimes it unfolds slowly, revealing its patterns and themes over time. This can bring insight into what’s happening to us on a deeper level.
