I offer English Speaking Counselling & Somatic-Based Counselling, both online and in-person.Counselling offers a space to explore your internal world, through thoughts, feelings, and experiences - in an open and non-judgemental space.Somatic-Based Counselling works with the whole person. It recognises that the body holds its own intelligence, and that stress, emotion, and experience don't just live in the mind, but become held patterns in the body.I work primarily through the body. Not because the mind doesn't matter, but because the body often holds what the mind hasn't yet found words for.In sessions, we listen — to thoughts and emotions, yes, but also to what the body is quietly communicating. The subtle sensations, the impulses, the inner rhythms that often go unnoticed in daily life.When we slow down and give these a voice, something opens up. A natural wisdom. A deeper sense of coherence and groundedness that was always there, waiting to be heard.As a Counsellor, I am trained in Psychodynamic theory, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and in holding space for complex emotional processes.As a Somatic-based Counsellor, I integrate body awareness and relational skills to help people find creative, embodied pathways toward greater balance, connection, and vitality.

What is biodynamic massage?

We all carry tension we've stopped noticing. Patterns held so long in the body they've become part of how we move, how we breathe, how we feel day to day.Biodynamic Massage offers a way into those deeper layers — the held tension, the stored experience, the parts of ourselves we don't always have access to through words or thought alone.Through mindful, relational touch that follows the body's own rhythm, a dialogue opens up between body and awareness. Something that was held begins to soften. A deeper sense of yourself starts to emerge.A session begins with a short conversation before moving into hands-on work — an organic process of coming back to yourself.It's a quiet but powerful form of self-discovery — one that works with the whole of you.
Tell me More about Somatic Work
Somatic Counselling is a school of Counselling that acknowledges the connection between the mind and body. and seeks to understand the unique natural pattern of each individual. For example, When we're stressed, our muscles are tense, and sometimes we get headaches and tightness around the face and jaws. In Somatic Counselling, we use these signals from the body to help us understand what might be happening underneath, we listen to hear what is the story the body is trying to tell us. In Somatic Counselling we understand that while the brain holds value in thought and reason, the body holds feeling and wisdom. Much of the psychological unrest felt by people suffering emotionally is due to the disconnect between mind and body, as our culture supports us to 'just get on with things', we instead look at what we need to feel well.
