What Happens in Personal Sessions

The first session is a free consultation and an opportunity for us to meet and for you to decide whether my practice is the right fit for you.

In the course of the sessions, we will work together to form a clear and specific picture of your true longings, hidden dreams and desires. Together, we will explore the origins of the behaviours and mindsets that are blocking you in the present.

Our bodies hold memories and imprints of past experiences. The trauma at the root of our anxiety, depression and compulsive behaviours cannot be resolved without the body finding a way to release these memories and imprints. Through the practice of Somatic Experiencing (SE) the symptoms of trauma and other mental health problems can be discharged and even overcome by focusing on the body’s sensations in a safe space. SE goes beyond the benefits of talk therapy by enabling the body to discharge trauma in your nervous system.

Having articulated your vision with clarity through images and words, and having worked to identify and discharge the behaviours and messages holding you back, we work together to develop a detailed action plan to identify the steps you need to take and the resources of help you will need in order to achieve your goals.
