Issues I support

1. Chronic Illness & Stress

• Supports emotional wellbeing – Helps process feelings such as grief, frustration, or anxiety that often accompany long-term illness.
  
  

• Encourages mind-body connection – Promotes awareness of how emotions, thoughts, and stress can impact physical health, and supports gentle practices to restore balance.
  
  

• Provides a safe, non-judgemental space – Offers a compassionate environment to explore the lived experience of illness without pressure or expectation.
  
  

• Strengthens inner resources – Helps build resilience, self-compassion, and a deeper sense of agency, even when the body feels limited.
  
  

• Supports lifestyle and self-care – Encourages small, meaningful steps towards rest, nourishment, and supportive habits that honour the body’s needs.

2. Stress & Anxiety in Children

• Childhood stress, anxiety, and trauma can deeply affect a child’s sense of safety, self-worth, and ability to cope.
  
  

• These challenges may show up as worry, sleep difficulties, physical complaints (like tummy aches), anger, withdrawal, or trouble concentrating.
  
  

• Holistic therapy provides a gentle, supportive space where children can feel safe, seen, and understood.
  
  

• Using creative, body-based, and relationship-focused approaches, therapy meets each child at their own pace.
  
  

• It helps children process their experiences, rebuild trust, and strengthen their natural resilience.
  
  

• With the right support, children can grow into a greater sense of calm, confidence, and emotional wellbeing.

3. Gut Healing / Food Intolerance 

• The gut plays a central role in our overall health — not just physically, but emotionally and mentally too.
  
  

• A balanced, healthy gut can support clearer thinking, more stable moods, and reduced anxiety or low mood, thanks to the close connection between the gut and the brain (often called the "gut-brain axis").
  
  

• Healing the gut may help ease symptoms like bloating, food intolerances, and low energy, while also improving how nutrients are absorbed and used by the body.
  
  

• Gut health is closely linked to skin health — issues like acne, rosacea, or eczema often reflect deeper imbalances in digestion or inflammation.
  
  

• Hormonal balance is also influenced by the gut, as it plays a role in regulating and detoxifying hormones — supporting menstrual health, mood swings, and even sleep.
  
  

• When the gut is supported through nutrition, lifestyle, and stress reduction, many areas of wellbeing can improve naturally — leading to more energy, clearer skin, steadier moods, and a greater sense of vitality.

4. Fertility Issues

• Support hormonal balance –  may help regulate menstrual cycles and support ovulation naturally.
  
  

• Reduce stress and anxiety – Mind-body practices such as mindfulness, breathwork, and massage can ease emotional tension, which is known to impact fertility.
  
  

• Improve circulation and energy flow –  reflexology can enhance blood flow to the reproductive organs and promote overall vitality.
  
  

• Encourage emotional healing – Holistic approaches provide space to process grief, disappointment, or anxiety that may accompany fertility struggles.
  
  

• Support the body’s natural rhythms – Holistic treatments aim to restore balance and alignment, helping the body return to its own optimal state for conception.
  
  

• Complement medical treatments – Many people choose holistic therapies alongside IVF or other fertility treatments to support their body and wellbeing throughout the process.
  
  

• Nurture overall wellbeing – A holistic approach looks at the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—creating a foundation of health that can support fertility.

5. A Therapist Space

• Dedicated space for rest and reflection – Quiet areas where therapists can pause, recharge, and reset in their life.
  
  

• Opportunities for self-care – Encouraging therapists to prioritise their own physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing during their workday.
   

• Stress management and resilience – Providing tools and techniques to help therapists maintain balance and avoid burnout.
  
  

• Creating a culture of wellbeing – Fostering an environment that recognises the importance of therapist self-care as essential to quality client care.

6. Overwhelm & Burnout 

• Chronic stress and overwhelming workload – Constant pressure without enough downtime drains energy and focus.
  
  

• Emotional exhaustion – Carrying the emotional weight of clients’ struggles can leave therapists feeling depleted.
  
  

• Lack of boundaries – Difficulty saying no or setting limits leads to overcommitment and exhaustion.
  
  

• Insufficient self-care – Neglecting physical, mental, and emotional needs undermines resilience.
  
  

• Perfectionism and high self-expectations – Constantly striving to be flawless can increase pressure and self-criticism.
  
  

• Isolation and lack of support – Feeling alone in the work or without peer connection reduces coping capacity.
  
  

• Unrealistic workload or unclear roles – Taking on too many tasks or unclear job demands causes confusion and stress.
  
  

• Poor work-life balance – When work consumes personal time, it becomes hard to recharge and maintain wellbeing.
  
  

• Resistance to asking for help – Pride or fear of judgement can prevent seeking support when it’s needed most.

7. Supporting Trauma Gently and Holistically

Trauma can leave deep imprints—both in the body and the nervous system. You may not always have words for what you feel, but you know something’s not quite right. Whether it's anxiety, chronic tension, emotional overwhelm, or feeling stuck in the past, trauma often shows up in ways that are hard to name.

My approach to trauma support is gentle, non-invasive, and led by your body’s pace. Through therapies like Biokinesiology, Family Constellation Therapy, and Reflexology, I help you:

• Create a sense of safety in your body
  
  

• Release stored tension and emotional blocks
  
  

• Build resilience in the nervous system
  
  

• Gain insight into unconscious patterns or inherited stress
  
  

• Reconnect with a sense of calm, strength, and wholeness
  
  

I also use tools like Aura-Soma, which can offer intuitive guidance and emotional clarity, supporting your process in a non-verbal, symbolic way.

Above all, trauma healing is not about “fixing” you—it’s about gently meeting what’s there, with compassion and curiosity, and allowing space for integration and change.
