I may be a bit of a unicorn when it comes to listening to people. It’s one of my favourite things to do. To hear and hold peoples deepest truths, seeing and accepting them fully. A lot of healing can take place when you’re simply able to speak with a skilful listener.

I’ve always been empathetic. When I was 6 (at my strict catholic) school I wrote about denouncing God, because I couldn’t believe in someone who would allow so much pain in the world (I lived in a very low income community surrounded by family violence). I couldn’t use the word God for a long time. I was so angry about the guilt and shame ‘he’ placed on people. I couldn’t connect with religion, but I was desperate for spirituality. I’m happy to say that now I have a good relationship with the divine and identify that energy by many names. I believe that spirituality is non dogmatic, it’s not about a certain path or set of rules, it’s the innate, undeniable truth of the universe.

In facing and reckoning with my own inner pain, childhood trauma and perceived limitations, I’ve acquired the tools to listen, to be a safe space holder, and to guide.

Healing, growing and connecting has literally been my job. I’ve lived and breathed it for so long. More officially as a Yoga Teacher and Bodyworker, unofficially in the hundreds of hours I’ve spent looking for answers, real answers, not just money makers, but real ways to support myself, and others.

Authenticity is what I live for. I’m usually looking for the barriers I put up between myself and others, and the barriers between others and their own world. Vulnerability is how I connect, to stay soft and playful in a world that can seem so dark at times.

Yoga has provided for me big time, it’s been the bedrock of my spiritual discovery, nervous system regulation and self enquiry (well that and plant medicine). It provides the tools, daily, to come back to myself and to balance my mind, body and soul.

If you’re feeling stuck, if you’re in pain, if you need guidance…I’m ready to be your space holder. I’ll artfully guide you, provide you with tools that actually work and an opportunity where you can unravel and reclaim your wholeness.

DISCLAIMER

*This is not a regulated modality, but rather a coalescence of various studies and a response to requests for one to one support. I have seen this way of working with my clients to be gentle and beneficial for helping centre and build resilience to “be with” life.

*If you are working with complex trauma I would be honoured to be on your support team. My work may compliment the work you are doing by developing body awareness and body based skills for growing through trauma, however I can not offer you care as your primary carer.
