counselling

Using a mindful, person-cantered approach, I integrate aspects of sensorimotor psychology, the practical application of the polyvagal theory and acceptance and commitment therapy to counterbalance the effects of traumatic experiences, toxic stress and overstimulation of the central nervous system.

 I am dedicated to supporting embodied integrity in an affirmative way as a foundation for a fulfilled purposeful life. 

This includes supporting neurological diverse people in embracing who they are on a soul level.

Offering empathetic, non-judgemental listening in a safe space, a skill I practiced throughout life.

To find out more, or to clarify, I offer a 15-minute free call.

you can also get in touch via email.

Biodynamic Craniosacral Balancing is a gentle and non-invasive therapy using light contact of hands and fingers to support the body's innate ability to self-regulate. 

Tuning into the breath of life and heart wisdom.

Issues that can be addressed include:

- General stress management 

- Supporting a healthy sleeping pattern

- May reduce headaches and migraines 

- Support to regain flexibility after physical traumas

- Calming effects on an overstimulated nervous system e.g. toxic stress to support physical integration after a traumatic experience

Other light touch techniques might be applied such as orthobionomy.

A typical series encompasses 4-6 sessions. This can vary depending on individual circumstances. meditation program

working with body mind and soul 

  Body: shaping my distinct treatment approach, with laying the fundament in 1986 graduating as a physiotherapist in Germany, a journey starting with manipulative treatment styles which changed slowly to deep listening and following the bodies expression and tensions. The physiotherapy foundation allows me to understand anatomy well and spot obstacles and blockades and my heart- intuition will guide my experienced hands to support the return of a natural flow throughout the body using light touch treatment styels.

Mind: Supporting every treatment with understanding how our thinking and believes can keep our bodies in stressful postures and tensions as if we are expecting the next negative experience even when we are held in a safe environment. experiential counselling can support finding back into balance, regardless of what had been in our way and kept us repeating what we have learned even though we may wish for a different life experience. 

Spirit and soul: embracing shamanic practices and psychosophy elements, alongside a spectrum of meditation styles from dynamic to Vipassana and heart focused meditation. This also includes understanding of how past live experiences can still actively interfere with our daily life decisions.

An integrative bodywork session may include all 3 areas of the body-mind-soul unit. 

counselling includes the integration of our somatic symptoms 

Deeply enjoying the mysteries of life, I remain curious with a love for learning and deepening my understanding of the connectedness between Body-mind and soul/spirit with all life on earth.
