I offer two complementary forms of one-to-one therapeutic work: EMBODY, which works primarily through the body and breath & TRANSFORM, which works with thoughts, emotions, moods, and recurring patterns. You don’t need to know in advance which is right for you – many people find their way to one through the other, and a free consultation is always available to help you decide.

EMBODY is for anyone who wants to release physical tension, slow down, and feel more at ease and connected in their body – whether that is chronic tightness, stress held in the shoulders and jaw, restricted movement, or simply a sense of being disconnected from yourself. Each session is adapted to you and may include Shiatsu, Thai Yoga Massage, therapeutic massage and structural bodywork, together with guided breathing where it is helpful. Some sessions are deeply relaxing; others focus more specifically on particular areas of tension or restriction, and others on building life-energy and flow. This work draws on eighteen years of study in Japanese Shiatsu and Traditional Chinese Medicine, training with Japanese masters Wataru Ohashi, Shizuto Yamamoto and Pauline Sasaki, & Chi Kung Master Mantak Chia alongside fascial integration through the work of Structural Integration in the tradition of Tom Myers. It also draws on my fifty years of breathwork training in Chinese, Indian Yogic, Tibetan & modern Western schools.

TRANSFORM offers support if you are experiencing anxiety, feeling stuck, noticing recurring patterns in your relationships or behaviour, or sensing that past experiences are still shaping your present. Rather than working from one fixed method, I draw on Clinical Hypnotherapy, EMDR, Parts and Shadow Work, Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Yogic contemplative practice, and adapt each session collaboratively to what you need. My role is not to tell you who to become, but to support you in understanding yourself more clearly and reconnecting with your own capacity for change and to unleash your potential.

Qualifications & Experience
My work is grounded in a background in evolutionary and neurobiology, alongside decades of training and practice across bodywork, breathwork, clinical hypnotherapy, yogic and contemplative traditions. I am a Certified Trainer and Practitioner of NLP, trained in EMDR and Parts &
Shadow Work with the London School of Hypnotherapy, and authorised to teach in Vedic and Tibetan lineages. I now integrate this work through my own framework, the Evolving Coherence Method (ECM), and I am co-author of The Evolving Breath, Volumes One and Two. My training and workshops have been delivered to organisations including Macmillan, Google, the University of Bristol, the University of Greenwich, Hawksmoor and many other organisations.
