Freedom doesn’t always come from ‘letting go’ or ‘moving on’. It comes from connecting with the parts of ourselves that don’t feel safe to be seen.
I have a special interest in trauma-informed therapy, using evidence-based somatic techniques to promote wellbeing.
Somatic therapies, combined with trauma release techniques like Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), can calm the nervous system and help improve focus, memory, and sense of presence.
My therapy focusses on collaborative pattern breaking without the need to dig into past traumatic experiences. If you would like to learn more, check out my therapy page or get in touch.
For professionaIs, I co-facilitate the “Alexander Technique Interweaves for DBR-Trained Practitioners” workshop with Martin Warner, an advanced Deep Brain Reorienting workshop. I also assist Frank Corrigan (the originator of Deep Brain Reorienting) in Levels 1,2 & 3 DBR training in Australia.
I also serve as an accredited senior facilitator of Trauma-Informed Stabilisation Treatment (TIST), founded by Dr. Janina Fisher.

- Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)
- Internal Family Systems (IFS)
- Trauma Informed Stabilisation Treatment (TIST)
- Sensorimotor Psychotherapy
