"I believe in the transformative power of self-discovery self-expression and personal growth. Each individual possesses true self energy, aliveness, strengths, experiences, and aspirations waiting to be discovered and honoured."
WHY WORK WITH ME?
1.
SAFE, SUPPORTIVE & EMPOWERING SPACE
I create a trauma-informed, non-judgmental, confidential space - where your whole self is welcomed, and you don't have to have it all figured out.
With deep attunement and care, I hold the container where your nervous system can soften, your truth can surface, and your power and self-trust can return.
I empower you to become your own embodied guide, and reconnect with embodied choice led by your true self.
Together we cultivate the kind of safety, that makes deep growth and authentic change possible and sustainable.
2.
​INTEGRATIVE
MIND
& BODY
MODALITIES
My coaching approach bridges the intelligence of the mind, with the wisdom of the body, and the expressiveness of your whole being.
My 1:1 work weaves psychology, neuroscience, somatics, somatic internal family systems, cognitive and somatic coaching modalities.
In some of my 1:1 work, group workshops and classes I fuse somatic coaching, with embodiment coaching, expressive, movement and flow arts (influenced by my experience and relationship with dance).

TAILORED
&
INTUITIVE APPROACH
I believe every individual is unique. I strive to understand your specific needs, so we can support your growth. Together we honour your unique rhythm, and go at a pace you and your body are ready for.
I incorporate modalities and practices that resonate with and best serve you and your goals. For instance, movement is a part of somatic work, however, not everybody feels a connection to expressing and releasing through dance movement. I only add this as an option with those that do.

MY CORE VALUES
Connection
We are wired for connection. It's how we heal, grow, and remember that we belong. Connection invites us out of isolation, into intimacy with ourselves, others and the greater web of life. It's a felt experience of being seen, met and received just as we are.
We are also connected to and supported by all the nature animals and wildlife around us, and community.
Aliveness
Aliveness is vitality.
It's the pulse of pleasure, pain, rage and stillness. The spark of desire. The flow of passion.
When we reconnect with our full emotional and sensory range, we feel more here, more human. Aliveness doesn't always mean feeling good, it means being in contact with grief and joy, contraction and expansion. Aliveness is what makes life rich and worth living.
Courage
Courage is not the absence of fear, it is the willingness to feel deeply and act anyway - in service of what really matters.
It's a meeting point between intention and embodied action.
Courage is the capacity to be with fear and step into the gap between. To choose from something deeper - to act in alignment with our values and deepest intentions - even when our mind doubts or our nervous system comes online. Courage lives in big acts, and small radical ones e.g. breathing through discomfort, setting a boundary, revealing a part of our self that longs to be seen.
Expression
Expression is the unfolding of our inner world into form -through voice, words, emotions, movement, breath, sound, sensation, and story.
It's how we let others feel us, and how we reclaim parts of ourselves. True expression isn't about performance, it's about being honest in real time. It's the body saying "this is what true for me now". It's a liberation of the whole soma.
Growth
Growth is the ongoing journey of becoming. It is often non-linear, uncomfortable and deeply rewarding.
Its about unfolding what's already whole.
Shedding old skins and embracing our deeper layers and truths.
Growth asks us to meet resistance, show up for ourselves honestly and consistently, stretch beyond what's familiar, and keep choosing what aligns with who we are becoming.
