About Me
A little about my little life
My heritage is American-Swedish, but I was born and raised in London Town. In 2007 my life radically changed direction for the better and I am so grateful that I was given a second chance at life. A life where I can be of service in a clear and humble way. Where I can really be present. For me, there has been a deep recognition of the immense wisdom to be found in meeting our experiences and our wounding openly and trusting in our capacity to be with the uncomfortable, with the unknown. When we can do this our outlook on life changes, our relationships change, life transforms along with our inner landscape.
You can call it personal growth, healing, recovery, digging deep, looking inwards-but that is what started in 2007 and I am still journeying on that road. What I have learnt as I have walked is that the more we can feel into ourselves, the more we can connect and feel others. The inner journey creates an outward depth to life. For me the work is never done, life is a constant unfolding, a constant discovery, staying focused on our inner self creates focus in the world. If I stop growing, the places I can go to with my clients becomes limited.
A therapist’s job is to know themselves as much as they can and go into the places that are hard and difficult. We are the way-showers, the Wounded Healers and I take that responsibility incredibly seriously.
My Qualifications
MA (Psych)
Diploma in Integrative Psychosynthesis (psychotherapy and counselling)
Psychosynthesis leadership coaching
Certificate in supervision
Certificate in Group Facilitation
Certificate in Breathwork Facilitation
* Breathwork is one of our most potent healing modalities and practitioners need to have thorough training over a substantial time
I am currently a member of The Global Proffesional Breathwork Association
Additional Specialist Trainings
I also have a certificate in somatic EMDR, Inner Dance facilitation, and have completed trainings in psilocybin-assisted therapy and shamanic medicine work. These complement my core modalities by deepening the energetic, somatic, and expanded-state dimensions of my practice.
Further trainings
My continued professional development includes training in complex and developmental trauma (including birth trauma), Polyvagal Theory, Attachment Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I have specialised in working with addiction and bulimia, and have trained in integrating altered states, anatomy-informed trauma work, and the intersection of ADHD and addiction.
I’ve studied dreamwork and re-entry, visualisation, guided journeying, and the chakra system as a guide to embodiment. My training includes The Soul’s Journey in psychotherapy, addiction and Twelve Step integration, dissociation and trauma recovery, functional breathwork (Oxygen Advantage), Holotropic Breathwork, bioenergetics, body mapping, tantric approaches, BPD support, and spiritual integration. I’ve also undertaken depth study in shamanism, mysticism, and transpersonal healing. Over the years, I’ve trained in many modalities—some of which I’ve chosen not to integrate—when they proved misaligned with the depth and integrity of my work.
Professional Integrity & Supervision
Over the past year I made the decision to step away from the UKCP and BACP after finding their models increasingly rigid, outdated, and misaligned with the evolution of my work. As my practice deepened more into transpersonal, somatic, energetic, and expanded-state approaches, it became clear that these institutions could not hold the scope or nuance of what I was offering. Their frameworks, rooted in a narrow paradigm, often felt patriarchal and unable to meet the fluidity required for this kind of depth work.
I remain deeply committed to integrity and professional rigour. I will always continue to learn and evolve as a practitioner. I believe that the moment I stop growing, my capacity to hold others begins to stagnate. I receive regular supervision for all aspects of my work—retreats, group therapy, and 1:1 intensives—and consider this an essential part of ethical and embodied practice.
Things I get up to
I Dance
I dance...all around the place. I love ecstatic dance, five rythms, live DJ events. Dance for me is the expression of being in my own body and being alive. The connection of the music and my body is a spiritual experience and an amazing therapy.
I BreatheRegular conscious connected breathwork has been one of the best therapies I have found. A deeply somatic, spiritual, mental and emotional practice.
I Love I love my family. I love my friends. I love my clients. I love this world, this life. I have learnt how to trust enough to really allow love in my life.
I ChallengeI question and I am not scared of disrupting. I will never ‘just go along with things’ because its easy, we have to feel discomfort in order for change to happen and I believe we all have the power to change things.
I Eat Choosing it, eating it and cooking it-after such a complex, shameful and painful relationship with food and my body, food is a relationship I am always tending to... I tune in, I listen and connect to what I am eating. So for me it is whole local organic plant foods and home cooking. Every day. It is the most simple way that we can connect with our body and the earth around us.
I am with nature
I watch the plants and trees, I feel the environment. I connect with the animals, I hear their voices, their song, their roar. I watch the shifts, the growth, the movement. I root in. I root deeply into the earth around me. I trust in its wisdom, its teachings and its love.
I Do Groups
My monthly group therapy is super important for me to keep noticing my projections, owning my shit, calling things out, being witnessed in my vulnerability and speaking my truth
I Do 121 Therapy & lots of other deep inner work
This is the cornerstone of my work. The further we descend, Inscend the more we ascend, the deeper our trust in all of life becomes. This is the clarity this is how I can keep deepening my offering to my work.
I Move
I do various regular movement. Some structured (pilates, weights) some wild and free (dance). Movement for me needs to come organically in many forms I follow where my body needs to go. I love to walk. To feel my body touch the air around me.
