I have five years experience working with the body in developmental trauma, and emotional neglect. Through working with body awareness, somatic body work and mindfulness breathing, my work will help you to understand how feelings as they rise, and why your body responds and behaves the way it does; why you say things and act as you do. As you become aware of the effect of this on yourself and others, you can make informed decisions and choices on how to change this so that you live your life fully and authentically.

Based in Winterton, Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire

I have more than twenty years experience of massage, energy work and mindfulness practice and over thirty years` personal practice in meditation. This journey led me to train in Hakomi, with the Hakomi Education Network. This body-centred psychotherapy is an elegant way of bringing outmoded habits and self-limiting beliefs into consciousness. Hakomi, Mindfulness and Massage seem to provide a coherent menu of modalities. Effective when used individually or as a complement to each other. In the light of embodied awareness the effects of unhelpful patterns may be reduced

South East
07941300871
I have been practicing as an embodied psychotherapist for over thirty years. Over the years, I have been exposed to many, often competing, psychological theories and most of the various models of psychotherapy. The body is a greater resource than any theory and felt experience can reliably guide and correct our ideas about our lives. The feeling that the body makes about our life situations can unfold step-by-step and with each step comes deeper understanding of what is really going on for us. This natural process is called Focusing and it can be added to any other model.

07905 147968
I count myself as fortunate to have worked as a therapist since 2003. I’ve always been fascinated by the connections between our thoughts, feelings, body sensations, faith, ‘nature’ and the rest of life. This fascination shapes my work as a relational body psychotherapist, Wild therapist, facilitator and supervisor, co-creating the work in the room – or sometimes the work outdoors. Another love is word weaving, and I’ve written/co-edited four books, the most recent ‘#MeToo: counsellors and psychotherapists speak about sexual violence and abuse’ published by PCCS Books.

I am an enthusiastic existential and somatic psychotherapist and psychologist working in private practice. As a 'wounded healer', I have experienced immense value in combining talking- and body-based therapeutic modalities from both sides of the treatment room.
Now, 15 years since seeing my first client, I have built my practice to include somatic therapies mainly from Japanese healing traditions. For me, it's all about listening therapeutically to what mind-body-me have to say as my clients make their authentic and autonomous healing journeys with me alongside.

In therapeutic relationship with me, I invite you to experience what is happening in the body as well as in thoughts.
Can we listen and pay attention in our bodies below the thinking in our heads? How to make sense of what we find in this less familiar territory?
Can we know this as the wisdom of that which is struggling or stuck in us? Can we find the support and guidance these places need there?
Can we be willing and curious? Can we experience the opportunity to find more space, relaxation and openness to life? The chance be freer of what is holding you back?

I'm a body psychotherapist who works with the whole of you, not just your body. From time to time, as I listen to you, I will invite you to notice what's going on in your thinking, your emotions (or feeling) and sensations in your body. Then we can then work together to explore what's happening without me telling you, or appearing to knowing more than you do. This way, we can often discover a clearer sense of what needs to happen which perhaps has been hidden from you, and then explore what might help it feel safe to allow that in.

A yoga & somatic movement therapy session is time-out-of-time to experience, notice and be. Exactly how we work depends on your individual needs. For many people, particularly those bringing experiences of childhood trauma, what we do is very simple, based on noticing different parts of self, using dialogue techniques to get to know them, and bringing awareness to any physical sensations that arise. I have been in practice since 2003 and specialise in working with childhood trauma. I am Autistic and love working with neurodivergent people. I am IAYT and ISMETA registered.

I’ve been practising as a Person-Centred therapist for over 13 years in southwest Surrey. My psychotherapeutic work is fundamentally relational and body focused, working somatically with the client’s internal experiencing to explore the emotional energies within our nervous system. To understand how and why we respond and react in certain ways and through a gentler eparative process of collaborative exploration, build in increasing self-awareness, safety and trust as a result.
I work mainly with women and much of my work is trauma based with a focus on shame.

I’ve been around for a long time. I started my journey into body psychotherapy first in my own therapy then onwards. My first course was in Reichian therapy and my main trainers were Nick Totton, Em Edmondson, Pete Armstrong & William West. I was at this threshold in 1994. I’ve also been a body worker since the beginning of the ‘90’s and run a massage training www.massage-training.co.uk
I have extensively studied in Hakomi and am also a trainer in this method, founded by Ron Kurtz. I have a Bsc & an MA in Psychological Therapies.
