I welcome and acknowledge people of all backgrounds, experiences, bodies and identities.
home body
I'm a fully qualified Somatic Stress Release Practitioner, Trauma Centre Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) facilitator, counsellor & 600HR yoga teacher.
I've spent my career in community & leadership roles, supporting individuals to navigate life’s challenges through 1:1 work, innovative program development and policy change. My programs have been awarded and received recognition for innovation & service to the community.
In addition to 1:1 work, I also run regular events and retreats in Newcastle, Sydney and online.
Somatic work has helped me overcome burnout, anxiety and to work through the many faces of childhood trauma – my promise to you is to provide an authentic, grounded & embodied approach to everything I share.
