About
​
For as long as I can remember, I have had a deep interest in holistic healing.
​
Growing up surrounded by addiction and unhealed trauma, I found myself wandering through life without direction. My quest for understanding led me to study a variety of holistic therapies including kinesiology, massage therapies, bush flower essences, aromatherapy and breathwork.
​​
I began my professional training in somatic psychotherapy in 2004, seeking a deeper understanding of the effects of personal and generational trauma. I spent over a decade learning about the intimate relationship between our mind and body through movement, breath and awareness. These practices remain at the core of my work with my clients.
​
​
My somatic trainings also include therapeutic touch, energy healing and creative therapies.
​
​​I am a professional member of the Australian Counselling Association and engage in ongoing learning and supervision with trauma specialists and leaders in the fields of healing and post-traumatic growth.
