About Me
I'm not a big fan of talking about myself, but here goes...
I'd probably describe myself as an experienced, intuitive, and attuned facilitator. Before I began training in Somatic Experiencing in 2011,
I was at different times an acupressure massage therapist, energy worker and yoga teacher from 2002. I recently completed the Taijiwuxigang (Chi Gung and Taichi 13) teacher training and the IFSCA training in Internal family Systems (IFS) Therapy.
My own healing and personal development journey began in the 1990s, when I could no longer deal with the combination of alcohol, drugs and chronic health issues. I subsequently spent time with different therapists, teachers, elders and mentors on a meandering road of self-discovery. I mention all of this because it hugely informs the way I work professionally with clients, often in quite mysterious ways - especially if there is a lot of resonance with the person I'm working with.
Beyond my work... I’m also a singer-songwriter who loves to be outdoors as much as possible in all weathers. I've been an integral part of the Oxford community for over 20 years, co-creating acoustic music gigs, producing 5rhythms dance workshops, and leading devotional singing gatherings. I also co-founded and ran the much-loved independent shop Indigo until we closed our doors in 2022.
I'm currently offering one to one sessions in Oxford and online.
