About Me
My Practice
My Practice includes Somatic Experiencing and Focusing and I’m a member of SEAUK (Somatic Experiencing Association UK), BFA (British Focusing Association). I am currently training in NeuroAffective touch in person with Aline LaPierre.
I also bring to my practice my own experience of working through significant developmental trauma, as well as 26 years of experience working within therapeutic social care and educational settings.
