In my work I have found that, when given the chance, people can discover their own routes into vitality through tuning into the stories of the body. I find that in doing this, it is not to cover over the difficult or challenging but rather to make room for all that needs to be felt. Through talking, moving and making, I offer a way of unfolding these stories so that we might witness their transformation.

Movement is how I have always made sense of the flux of life. I am grateful to the teachers who have guided me, and guide me still, in practices of Dance, Movement, Martial arts and Meditation. My approach is rooted in the knowledge I receive from these practices. This knowledge offers learning in living sustainably with self, others and the more-than-human world.

My interest in facilitation, therapy and creative and embodied practice emerged through being involved in social justice movements. I am, and always have been, passionate about supporting the nourishment and sustainability of communities through creating spaces of belonging, collaboration and dialogue. I have experience working in a range of different charity and third sector settings using integrative methods of trauma informed body-based therapy and expressive arts.
