Evolve Manual Therapy

10/11/2025

Over the past year, my work — and this space — has been quietly shifting.

The new Evolve website reflects this evolution: a return to simplicity, presence, and what feels most alive in my work.

Alongside therapy and education, two new pages mark this next season.

Clinical Supervision — a space for practitioners to deepen their practice through reflection, embodiment, and awareness.

For Creatives — a space for artists, dancers, and makers exploring how body, emotion, and imagination move through the creative process.

Both represent the growing edges of my practice — where teaching, therapy, and creative inquiry begin to meet.

I would love for you to check out what I have been working on and let me know what you think.

I have been keeping something close for the last year while I developed my voice as a poet.

It is now something I feel drawn to share and I would love to invite you in to this part of my work.

If you are drawn to poetry exploring descent, return and the inner journey, join me on my instagram creative account.

What parts of us enter the room when we’re holding space?

As therapists, we don't just witness our clients—we feel them. Their stories stir something in us: grief we haven't touched, anger we've tucked away, patterns we've yet to name. This is the realm of countertransference. In this upcoming lecture, we’ll explore how our own inner terrain quietly enters the room, and how tending to it can transform the space we hold.

Join me for "The Inner Terrain of the Therapist: Self-Reflection and Inner Work in SomatoEmotional Release" (Online Lecture)

Thursday 28th August / 7pm ACST (Live Online*)

*if you are unable to attend live, a recording will be available with subtitles in multiple languages for translation support.

What if your presence is your most powerful tool? Discover how inner work cultivates deep, ethical, and transformative therapeutic presence.

Join me for an online lecture (“The Inner Terrain of the Therapist: Self-Reflection and Inner Work in SomatoEmotional Release”) as we explore the essential role of the therapist’s inner life in the practice of SomatoEmotional Release (SER). As therapists, we journey alongside our clients through deep emotional terrains, past traumas, preverbal memories, and existential longings. The client’s psychological, emotional, and energetic patterns inevitably shape the therapeutic field—just as our own capacity to witness and hold space profoundly influences the process.

This lecture will emphasise the necessity of cultivating a self-reflective stance—grounded in ongoing inner work, embodied awareness, and an ethical commitment to presence. We will draw on theoretical frameworks, somatic perspectives, and practical examples to illuminate this inner dimension of practice.

You will be invited to examine how your own inner world may be mirrored in the client’s process, and how consciously engaging in your personal inner work allows you to become a more integrated therapist—one who can hold the complexity of the client’s experience with clarity, safety, depth, and grace.

AUDIENCE

This lecture is designed for CranioSacral Therapists engaged in SomatoEmotional Release, as well as for therapists from all modalities who support clients in navigating emotional process work. Whether you work hands-on or through verbal and relational fields, if your practice invites clients into deep emotional territory—grief, trauma, early memory, or existential longing—this space is for you. The lecture will speak to those who recognise that their own inner life inevitably shapes the healing field, and who feel called to deepen their presence, refine their boundaries, and tend the ethics of emotional holding from the inside out.
