PRIVATE SESSIONS
Cultivate intimacy and vitality
Private sessions are devotional spaces crafted uniquely for women where you are guided into intimate relationship with yourself through dialogue, embodiment and tantric practice. These sessions are designed to bring you into depth relationship with your body, your sensual experience of the world, and your own self-energy. Sessions are offered as three or six month journeys.
Each journey is unique, and will move through themes including embodiment, sensuality, relationships, creativity, symptoms, identity, life direction, intimacy, meaning, spirituality, dreams and voice. Sessions weave together movement, meditation, creativity, dialogue and gentle body-based touch to support you into deeper relationship with yourself and your body.
I think of my work as ‘threshold’ work, that is work that supports individuals through the tender and profound process of change. I work in depth alignment with a cyclical understanding of life - every ending gives rise to a beginning. From the seconds to the months to the years of our lives, everything must begin and everything must end. Each breath, each heartbeat, each moment containing both a creative spark and an ending. I believe our health lies in our ability to be in right relationship with these processes. Beginnings and endings of relationships, life cycles, professional projects, creative processes, these sacred moments where the end of one cycle meets the beginning of the next.
When we work with the body, the first part of the journey tends to be a descent into the earth of your being, to see what lives inside you. This is followed by a process of acknowledgement - ‘I see you’, ‘I hear you’, ‘I feel you’, which paves the way for a deep process of release. Grief, and the composting of matter and experience that no longer serves us and blocks the flow of energy in the body. Once space has been cleared, the transformative practice of creation takes over, and we move into the ‘new’, the creative unknown, the space where your future has all the air it needs to unfold.
This is not a linear process, many of the stages overlap and intersect. We follow the map of your body - what I like to think of as an ‘animate cartography’ - and its unfolding moment to moment. Nothing is imposed, nor prescribed. This is an active practice of self expression. And once your body has the imprint of being allowed to express itself freely, without interference, projection or control, that experience ripples out into the rest of your world. This is radical, liberatory work for women who have had their motions, desires, and appetites controlled from their youngest age. This is a transformative practice of self reclamation that is rooted in the very earth of our being - our bodies.
This is a transformative container that lays the foundations for true consent, liberated self-expression, and a soft and fierce openness to life. This is the art of being intimate with yourself, and creating pathways to a life that is true to you.
I work with people who want to live with depth, compassion and honesty. People find their way to this work for a wide array of reasons. You might relate to some of the following experiences:
you feel disconnected from your body
you often feel stressed and anxious
you want more depth in your relationships
you are caught in cycles of conflict and/ or avoidance your key relationships
you have lost purpose in your work
you want to reconnect with your body and your sense of self after childbirth
you want to give full expression to your sensuality
you have lost contact with your body after sexual trauma
you are recovering your sense of self after a damaging relationship - romantic, friendship, professional, or other
you find yourself at a threshold point in your life - the end of a relationship, the beginning of a creative project, grief, illness, burnout, parenthood
there is a deep desire in you for change
And many, many other questions of body, movement, expression, desire, peace, ease, creativity and soul. If you would like to find out if I can support you with something specific in your life, feel free to reach out and we can arrange a relaxed chat. Explore what might serve you, and how you can nurture your relationship with your own magical body and essence.

Sessions last 90 minutes and will take place either online or in-person. The arc of each session is designed to gently and carefully bring you into your body.
We will begin with a practice to open the space and a grounding meditation. We will then begin to explore the theme that has emerged for that week. We will begin with conversation and follow what feels most relevant or alive.
We will use a range of modalities to do this, including movement, breathwork, free-writing, drawing, poetry, role play, meditation, creative dialogue, silence and body based touch. They will be offered depending on your process and what is coming up in the moment. You are always at choice to decline or redirect. Each practice is chosen to help understand and express your experience from a fresh angle.
At the end of the session we will reflect on what has emerged, integrate, and close the space.
