WELCOME
I’m a somatic counsellor, group facilitator, embodiment practitioner.
For three decades, I’ve been exploring what it means to be human; how we heal, how we belong, how our bodies carry our stories, and what helps us find our way back to ourselves and one another.
My work has taken me from humanitarian and community settings to therapy rooms, organisations, retreats, rituals and Circles. Today, I work one-to-one and with groups, weaving together somatic therapy, yogga, nervous-system awareness, grief work, mindfulness, ritual and the intelligence of relationship.
Beyond the titles, I’m a woman, mother, wife, friend, daughter and granddaughter, continually shaped by love, loss, relationship and this messy, beautiful experience of being alive.
I’m less interested in fixing people than in creating the conditions for something deeper to be heard.
Growing up mixed heritage taught me early that belonging can be complicated. I learnt to move between worlds, read rooms, notice who was included and who wasn’t, and sometimes adapt myself in order to belong.
That experience became one of the threads that led me here.
My work has been shaped by three decades of humanitarian and community work, alongside my studies in mindfulness, yoga, embodiment, trauma-informed practice, nervous-system work, social justice, grief tending, ritual, therapy and group facilitation.
I have learnt from extraordinary teachers and elders.
I have learnt most from life itself: motherhood, love, loss, identity, relationships, grief, and sitting beside people at some of the most tender thresholds of being human.
Through it all, I have come to understand belonging as something we practice, within ourselves and with one another.
MY WORK IS ABOUT COMING BACK INTO RELATIONSHIP
With ourselves, our bodies, one another, and with this beautiful, complicated world we belong to.
Whether I’m sitting with one person in therapy, holding a Circle, teaching people how to facilitate groups or working within an organisation, I’m interested in the same fundamental question:
What becomes possible when we are able to be more fully here?
When we can recognise our patterns without being ruled by them. Meet grief rather than outrun it. Hold boundaries without hardening. Stay present through difference and discomfort. Repair when relationships rupture. Trust what our bodies are telling us. And offer more of who we are to the world.
For me, this is where personal healing and collective change meet.
Not in becoming perfect versions of ourselves, but in becoming more present, more relational and more deeply connected to what matters.
Awaken. Remember. Belong.
