Where is there already
space, strength & softness?
This is a portal into our wholeness.
When life has left us dry, depleted and stuck on overdrive, we contract and constrict, all in the name of self-protection. This can start to feel like our normal, as if we are still under threat, when we are actually already safe.
The shape of our bodies constellates into survival patterns which are no longer congruent with what we want for our lives. We may find ourselves overwhelmed, looping the same old stories, unable to sustain the change we desire.
Working through our body opens up space for our body’s wisdom to create and embody transformation over time. We begin to touch more deeply into our wellspring of life energy to skillfully shape the reality we are always co-creating. When we can sense more of ourselves from within, we create more choice on how we respond to life.

A life that feels lush inside.
You’ve tasted the sweetness.

Q&A
-
Somatics derives from the Greek word soma which translates as our ‘living organism in its wholeness’. When our mind/body/spirit are in coherence, life feels easier, even if the challenges are still present.
Somatic Coaching is a fluid, emergent process where we open up into an embodied inquiry into what’s here. Your intention and vision guides what wants to happen.
We will collaboratively explore what is ready to happen, creating more choice and capacity to move towards what really matters to you.
Somatic Experiencing® deeply informs my approach in how I relate to you. I weave in SE principles throughout our work. -
Somatic Experiencing® (SE™) is a body-oriented relational approach for healing trauma and other stress disorders from a nervous system lens. Trauma, from an SE lens, is focused on how it shows up in the nervous system and how stuck patterns of fight, flight or freeze impacts life.
SE facilitates the completion of self-protective motor responses and the release of thwarted survival energy bound in the body and nervous system, by gently guiding someone to develop increasing tolerance for difficult bodily sensations and suppressed emotions, building their capacity for containment and resilience.
The purpose is to diffuse the power of the trauma narrative and remap the body memory to regain aliveness and flow.

I am currently an Advanced-level student in the SE™ Professional Training. -
Contrary to what we've been sold, our fears and desires are doorways into a more loving, generative relationship with ourselves and the world.
Whether you are a creative, healer, visionary, caretaker or simply a human who identifies as a sensitive soul in a harsh world with revolutionary dreams, somatic work can support you in responding to your body's needs in real time, instead of overriding our bodies' clever cues.
We’re here to move the needle. Create positive, practical changes towards your intentions, dreams and visions with ease and dare I say, pleasure?
While Somatic Coaching may feel therapeutic in nature and enhances your overall emotional and mental wellbeing, coaching is not counselling or psychotherapy and does not substitute for counselling, psychotherapy or medical advice if needed.
Coaching does not prevent, diagnose, cure, or treat any mental illness. -
All sessions are held virtually via Zoom.
-
I offer single sessions as a soft, subtle doorway into longer term work, and a flexible option for you to book in more sessions as you wish.
Somatic work builds steadily as you increase your somatic capacity to track and stay with your inner experience while you expand towards your dreams. Longer-term work can yield potent transformation over a longer period of time.
You’re welcome to book in a free 30 minute call with me to ask any questions you have and get a sense of what it might be like to work with me.
