I help clients to overcome challenges and relieve diverse types of difficulty, stress, and pain. I use a mind–body mindfulness and re-educational method called the Alexander technique to help clients retrain harmful unconscious habits and responses to stimuli. This minimises pain and encourages positive and meaningful growth and development. The Alexander technique teaches you how to work with your mind and body to change harmful habits and how you react to stressful stimuli in everyday life. It is an embodiment practice that works with the nervous system, the physical startle pattern, and the fight–flight–freeze and fawn stress responses affecting body alignment and posture to retrain unconscious habits and reactions to stress. As part of this, we retrain how you hold and live in your body and how you move. I teach with an emphasis on reaction change, mindfulness, and personal growth and have an in-depth understanding of how trauma works in the body. Another interest is in working with those who are ‘wired differently’ neurologically – the neurodivergent, the highly sensitive, those ‘gifted’ with ‘overexcitabilities’, and those with sensory processing issues. I also work with clients with hypermobility and chronic pain-related issues, including those with the Ehlers–Danlos syndromes. If you think I may be able to help you, please do reach out. I teach one-to-one in-person lessons in the Alexander technique. Note: I am a WINZ registered supplier.
