Therapy | Cultivating Connection

My therapy practice involves being with the process of moving through the many stages of life. Discovering and rediscovering capacity, attunement and stability to respond to inner experiences and external events with more awareness. Through my work I have come to understand that life is shaped by many interweaving feelings and experiences often happening at the same time. An element of therapy is a connection to becoming less of a surprise to ourself.

My approach is relational and integrates embodied existential understanding and working with how past experiences are present in the here and now. From a affirmative perspective, I work with the layers of lived otherness and difference.

I am a member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), adhering to their ethical framework and professional standards. I have been a therapist with national and local community organisations, and have experience in   mental health NHS services. 

Feldenkrais | Integrating Movement

My Feldenkrais practice of teaching Awareness Through Movement and Functional Integration has evolved through years of working with children, teenagers and adults.

I'm a member of the Feldenkrais Guild UK (FGUK), subscribing to their code of ethics, holding full insurance and current DBS clearance. I previously served on the FGUK board as International Representative. Being on the staff team as an Experienced Practitioner on the Professional London Training Programme I support students during training segments and in my private practice. I work as a Practitioner in a special needs secondary school.

Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, Access | Facilitating Inclusion 

My specialism in equity, diversity, inclusion, and access (EDIA) developed originally within the charity and arts sectors in 2009, leading me to facilitate EDIA workshops internationally. Today, I work alongside organisations and individuals to create space for deepening learning to clarify the nuance layers of welcoming inclusion and what shifts when we exclude to include. I work to understand and to find ways for people to be in spaces that meaningfully work for them while  supporting organisations to anticipate needs.
