Services Overview
Are you seeking to break free from destructive habits?
Are you tired of living on an emotional roller-coaster?
Do you want to feel more comfortable in your own skin?
If you do then I'm here to support you.
Life can be hard...If you're struggling with the stresses of everyday life, are feeling stuck or disconnected and want to find a way to move from surviving to thriving then you're in the right place.
What Integrative Well-Being is:
Being deeply heard is invaluable, but going over the same story again and again doesn't necessarily help you feel less stuck... So I meet you as a whole person and draw on a range of theories and methods to best facilitate your process of healing and transformation.
As well as having the space to talk through what's going for you, you also have the opportunity to use creative methods like expressive art, drama or guided visualization to go beyond words.
We can also use the complementary therapies of BodyTalk and Reiki to help your body-mind come back into balance, to shift energy blocks and to gently release stuck emotions.
My work is trauma-informed; which means that I have an awareness of the complex ways that trauma can impact on the body, mind & soul and work in a safe way where experiences can be revealed, processed and learnt from at your own pace, in a way that is not overwhelming or re-traumatizing.
My approach is underpinned by Mindfulness and Buddhist Psychology which invites vibrant, open-hearted encounter with self, other and the natural world.
I help people to rebuild their self-esteem, break-free from addictive behaviours such as over-eating or drinking, develop healthy ways of responding to stress and find greater meaning in life using an Integrative Well-Being technique & my Break-Free method.
Do you wish you could be less 'triggered' by certain things and live life more on an 'even keel'?
Brainworking Recursive Therapy (BWRT) is a powerful, neuroscience-based form of psychotherapy that safely facilitates rapid changes in the brain, directly diffuses triggers and takes the charge out of traumatic memories. It has found to be highly effective for anxiety, fears, phobias, trauma, depression and stuck habitual patterns of behaviour.
We usually think that we are consciously choosing to act in certain ways, logically thinking through all possible outcomes before making a deliberate choice. However, research has shown that the ancient Reptilian part of our brain responds rapidly to things and begins to direct our behaviour before we've even started thinking about what action to take, with the Reptilian brain 'firing up' approx a 1/2 a second before we've even become aware of having the impulse to act! For example, if you're driving along and a squirrel suddenly darts out in front of your car, you quickly brake; you don't need to think about the need to brake and then put your foot down, it happens automatically and is instigated by your reptilian brain's rapid response to the situation and activating well-established neural pathways to do with the need for braking and how to do it. BWRT is a solution-focused form of Psychotherapy that changes the way the brain responds to triggers and changes unhelpful patterns of behaviour. By working in the 'cognitive gap' between the habitual reaction to a trigger becoming activated, and that reaction reaching cognitive awareness, it can facilitate rapid, safe and lasting change.
Practitioner Profile
I am a warm, intuitive and open-hearted queer person with a deep commitment to my own self-development and a passion for supporting you in your unique life journey. With direct experience of addictive tendencies I know how frustrating and disheartening it can be being stuck in negative cycles, and I also know what can help liberate! I have worked with a diverse range of people in the UK and abroad. Having been on this path for over 10 years I have experienced for myself and witnessed in others, how real change and transformation is truly possible and often ripples out in ways we’d never imagine! My work is supported by my long-standing engagement in Yoga & Buddhism and I am active environmentally.
