Factors such as sensory amplification, processing differences, cumulative stress, and past or ongoing adversity can influence how our bodies respond to challenges as they arise. I take these factors into account (whether or not they are part of a formal diagnosis) in order to help people navigate complexity and intensity. My expertise is in the realm of building neurophysiological capacity so that the sensations of life are less overwhelming and draining, and freeing up resources for life-doing.
Sessions are contained and collaborative, and work towards building shared insight into the links between emotional, cognitive, physical and behavioural factors. This can include strengthening functional coherence and wellbeing across domains through structured support plans.
Feel free to message me with any questions you might have. There's a lot more info on my website.

My approach is based on the understanding that the mind lives in the body, where it exchanges information with the wider world through inputs and outputs. This perspective can be helpful in making sense of the (often mystifying) experience of being a human. It can be worked with in creative, experiential and psychoeducational ways, depending on what's needed.
