SERVICES
As we now live in a busy and challenging urban environment, just coasting along, hoping for a long, healthy and vibrant life is simply not enough!
We need to be proactive.
Are you attending to your wellbeing – that is, your physical, emotional, mental, spiritual wellness?
There are two key paths of work that I offer: Complementary Health and Somatic Psychotherapy.
In my work as a Natural Health practitioner, I draw on an ancient Chinese paradigm to address
the current challenge of maintaining personal wellness. In each appointment we explore various aspects of your Wellbeing and you will take away some simple, effective and practical tools that you
can easily integrate into your day to day routine. These may include some complementary remedies which will dynamically assist your body to address a specific imbalance or restore your energy, improve digestion and quality of sleep.
PSYCHOTHERAPY provides a safe, non-judgmental space and relationship in which to explore problems of living. These can arise as difficulties in work, in relationships, in parenting, in achieving one's goals or in repetitive painful states such as depression, anxiety, confusion, negative feelings or low self esteem.
The safety of the therapeutic relationship can allow one to explore and unravel old patterns of feeling, thinking and behaving and to find new meanings and action in the world. Psychotherapy provides conditions of empathy, acceptance and mindfulness so that people can grow and develop in ways which may not have been possible earlier in their lives.
Psychotherapy can soothe anger and distress, celebrate joys and achievements, unravel shame, make space for grief, help build tolerance for changing states of being, enhance resilience and the ability to trust and engage with others.
Soma is a Greek word meaning "the living body". Somatic psychotherapy is grounded in the belief that psyche and soma form a single holistic entity, the bodymind. Thought, emotion and bodily experience are understood as inter-functioning aspects of the person's whole being.
As well as working verbally in the relationship with the client, somatic psychotherapists are trained to engage directly with the client's dynamic bodily experience. This includes patterns of breathing, posture, sensation and movement, and also working with body image, metaphor and through touch when appropriate.
Body-oriented psychotherapy can be used to facilitate exploration and expression, to develop self awareness, self regulation and a sense of vitality and aliveness. This approach can help deepen a sense of connection to oneself and to others. Somatic psychotherapy can improve body sensing, relieve stress, balance the nervous system, mobilise posture, explore patterns of contraction and expansion and develop a sense of vitality and aliveness and movement.
