Kia ora, I’m Dan. I offer a relational and trauma-informed space where talk therapy meets creative and body-based tools. My practice centers on emotional and physical safety, supporting people who may be navigating stress, life transitions, or a sense of being stuck in their heads. I am here to journey alongside you, offering a grounded space to reconnect with the wisdom and insights held within your body.
I blend talk-therapy with movement and creative focus to reach the parts of us words alone cannot. We might use breathwork or visual art to help your nervous system settle, no artistic skill is needed. These are not art projects, but tools to help you find ease in a relaxed and inclusive space.
I know that starting therapy can feel like a big step. My space is relaxed and low-pressure; there is no right or wrong way to be here. If you are looking for a place where you can be heard, feel grounded, and explore new ways to move forward, I would love to hear from you. We can take it at a pace that feels right for you.
