Hello

I am a qualified biodynamic craniosacral therapist and wellbeing coach using solution focused and trauma informed practices.

My approach is entirely client led and built on trust and mutual respect. I use relational models of working with stress and trauma, encouraging self efficacy and self healing.

I listen without judgement, curiosity and an open heart.

I maintain a daily meditation practice and spend as much time as possible in nature. I feel passionate about community and believe that by reconnecting with ourselves, each other and our natural world, we can help to address the increasing mental health challenges.

Rita is a 5 year old Miniature Schnauzer, a certified therapy dog and most wonderful family pet. She loves nothing more than to be around people, being petted and fussed over and is just as happy sitting indoors for cuddles as she is on nature walks.

I have never known a more gentle animal, she is a wise old soul that has a gift for seeking and comforting those in need.

Miniature Schnauzers are hypoallergenic.
