different ways to enter, depending on where you are
Most of what you've been told about healing has been organised around language: what happened, what it means, how to think about it differently.
This is different.
This is where body-based work begins. It begins with what you sense, not what you understand.
You may have done therapy. Perhaps even a lot of it. Talking helped, until it didn't, or helped with the understanding and left something else untouched. Something that still surfaces at the wrong moment, in your body, in your words, patterns, behaviours. A familiar tightening, a reaction that doesn't match the present.
This work is for people who have begun to suspect that what they're carrying is stored somewhere words don't reach.
In a way only lived experience can give you, I'm familiar with early loss, parental neglect, and the difficulty of growing up inside a family influenced by a parent's addiction. These experiences shape the nervous system early. They don't always resolve through cognitive work alone. If you've been through something similar, it can help to know you're not alone.
how I work
Yoga, with emphasis on its therapeutic aspect, is where my practice finds its roots. Breath, gentle movement, body awareness – not as exercise, but as a way back into the body's own language. A way of learning to listen to what is already there.
Alongside this, I work with Somatic Experiencing, developed by Peter Levine, a modality in which I am currently training. It works with what the body held when there was no room to complete what was activated. Not the story of what happened, but the sensation that arrived and never fully moved through.
The container around working with the body and the nervous system is Internal Family Systems, in which I am Level 1 trained. An evidence-based psychotherapy model developed by Richard Schwartz, IFS works with the internal landscape: the parts that protected, the parts that withdrew, the parts that are still waiting for something they needed long ago.
When we’re caught in fear, uncertainty, or shock, something shifts inside us. Different parts of us react differently — one part wants to flee, another freezes, another keeps pushing through as if nothing is happening. These reactions are not weakness. They are intelligence. And they deserve attention.
The orientation across all of it is toward sensation first, not narrative. Not what happened - but what you notice happening now, in the body, in this moment. That shift is quieter than it sounds. Sometimes more disorienting, because we are so trained to think our way through.
Sessions are unhurried. There is no pushing. The nervous system needs to sense it can stop before it can fully move. Creating that safety is not preliminary to the work - it is the work.
Completing what was interrupted, not fixing what is broken.
