About  
In our sessions we will work holistically, honouring the different connections between body, mind and spirit. I am passionate about exploring the interplay between our physical and mental experiences, and helping to untangle the different patterns that often cause suffering and tension. As an integrative counsellor and psychosomatic bodyworker, I hold space for what naturally wants to emerge and unfold within your nervous system. Each session is personalized and takes place in a safe, grounded environment where we discuss your current needs and co-create a unique treatment plan together. My approach blends traditional talk therapy, somatic counselling, psychosomatic massage, and music therapy, for an intentionally integrative experience. For those seeking the comfort and convenience of their own home, I also offer online sessions. Using a somatic perspective, I adapt my approach to bring the depth of body-centred counseling into a virtual space, allowing you to access healing support wherever you are. After over a decade of study and experience, I have developed a multifaceted approach to address the complex issues that affect both body and mind. My toolkit includes a range of therapeutic methods, including Reiki Energy Healing, and practices inspired by Shamanic and Earth Medicine traditions. I also hold qualifications in Subtle Body Yogic Anatomy, Thai-style massage, Theta channeling, therapeutic Sound Trance, Rebalancing bodywork, and am a certified Yoga Teacher. Alongside these alternative therapies, I incorporate trauma-informed approaches from integrative psychotherapy including Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and somatic therapy, providing a comprehensive yet grounded healing experience. I look forward to connecting with you and discovering how I can support you in feeling more embodied, whole, and free.
