My practice is grounded in Hakomi Somatic Psychotherapy, best described as body-centered, mindfulness based, assisted self-exploration. Explorations in mindfulness enable clients to access 'core beliefs': deep seated ideas and attitudes about self, the world and our place in it. Usually out of conscious awareness these beliefs influence relationships, self-image and drive habitual patterns of response and reaction. Exploring both the resources and limitations held within these old patterns, opens the possibility for increased choice and ease with ourselves others and the world around us.
In order to meet each person individually, at times our work together will be influenced by my training in other approaches (including trauma focused & psychodynamic psychotherapy). Together we discover the approach & pace that feels right, not imposing...rather honoring & supporting the natural impulse for healing & growth present within each person.
Working in a variety of health roles for 40+ years (nursing, midwifery, addictions counselling and bodywork) in New Zealand/Aotearoa and abroad, has given me a broad perspective of wellbeing, including physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects and I strive to meet and support each person in their wholeness.
