My journey into this work began with personal experience. I suffered extreme sleep deprivation with my eldest and spent years silently navigating anxiety, exhaustion, and burnout. When I sleep trained my younger two daughters from just three months old, it completely changed the energy in our home — and my ability to show up as the mother I wanted to be.

As the girls have grown older, juggling life with three young children has brought its own challenges — and at times, reawakened my anxiety. This led me to discover Somatic Therapy, a practice I now return to regularly to support my own emotional wellbeing. That ongoing healing journey continues to shape everything I offer to others.

Today, I support families not just so their children can sleep, but so parents can reconnect with themselves and find calm in the chaos.

I offer: Sleep Training Programmes, 1:1 Therapy Sessions, Birth Trauma REWIND Therapy, Human Design Readings, Reflux Support.

My therapeutic approach combines Somatic Therapy, Trauma-Informed Techniques, and Human Design to help you:
Heal emotional wounds (past or present)
Reconnect with your body and inner resources
Understand your unique emotional and energetic makeup
Regulate your nervous system for greater calm and clarity

This work is deep, nurturing, and grounded in the belief that you don’t have to do it all alone.
