A mind-body approach to therapy.
Helping people process trauma , anxiety,
and food & body issues.
My approach
Change and healing require three things; safety, trust and connection. I aim to offer my clients a space in which they can experience all of these things, allowing room to explore and transform issues and challenges. I use a somatic or body centred approach, moving beyond talking to work with the mind-body connection.
Are you struggling with any of the following?
Anxiety / Panic
You may have generalised anxiety disorder or are highly stressed and anxious and having panic attacks. Or your fast paced life is catching up with you and you need help slowing down your nervous system.
Chronic Pain / Illness
Often the pain or illness is one thing but the anxiety and despair it causes adds another layer of struggle. Removing this layer of struggle can often help.
Food / Body Issues
You might be anywhere on the spectrum of disordered eating, from clinical eating disorders to everyday pervasive and perpetual thoughts of food and body that interrupt your life.
Depression / Low mood
Depression may be long term or short term and tied to undesirable circumstances. Your low mood could be stopping you moving forward and causing you to feel stuck and lost.
Trauma / PTSD
Trauma can lie at the core of many mental health issues. You may have experienced a specific event or string of events, including a challenging early childhood or attachment trauma.
Health / Wellbeing
Do you feel like you want to improve your health but don’t know where to star? We can explore what might be holding you back from living at your full health potential.
