about
As a therapist and facilitator, my intention is to meet you exactly as you are in a safe, supportive, impartial space and to share simple resources and techniques to support you to reconnect with your body, your health and to balance within and without. Welcome home.
Our values are mutual respect and non judgement. In our sessions there is no imposition, we work together establishing your concerns and intentions. A variety of techniques and practices are tailored to you providing a supportive hand with wisdom and experience to resource and facilitate resolution of any concerns you are encountering. The modalities I offer I continue to explore myself and have found them invaluable in navigating my own challenges from traumatic events, grief and loss through to pain and injury.
