Three sessions to shift what hasn’t shifted yet.
You’ve been managing. You know your patterns, at least some of them. But knowing hasn’t been enough to move you forward. These three sessions work at the level where the pattern actually lives; in the stories and language and in what the body holds. What happens? You leave with more options than you came in with. You get choice, instead of stuckness.You get a combination of:
My approach is a unique mix. I’ve been coaching people since 2019. I’ve navigated my own crises (grief, loss, trauma) over the past two decades. I know what it’s like when your body won’t cooperate with your mind. That’s why I do this work.
Does this sound like you? Let’s talk.
One 55-minute private session. Experience this work and see if it’s right for you. Good for addressing a specific issue or getting a feel for how we work together.
For people in group classes with me, ready for more support: Private sessions can deepen your group practice.



Some people who have tried a lesson, or a session, or the Move Beyond Habit package go on for the 8-Week Embodied Transition Intensive, where the sessions can be closer together with added support. Eight weeks of private Feldenkrais sessions and embodiment coaching. We work together weekly to help your nervous system settle, your body feel safe, and your mind regain clarity.
You’ll also get:
As a movement and life coach, we talk when you both enter and leave the room, and in the middle of the session I use slow, attentive movement, to help your body and brain recalibrate. What we are doing is learning, and rewiring your system … so that you have more choices and potential. I am someone you can see alongside both talk and physical therapy, and other movement practices. My work is a complement to them.

Come to an Awareness Through Movement lesson. This is a slow gentle manner of deconstructing your unique movement patterns and habits, so you can piece them back together with awareness and using more of yourself. You move towards increased self knowledge in this engaging head, heart hand process, which is not demonstrated but guided through words.
Eight-week somatic course for people who are ready to move what you’ve been carrying from the body to the page. This is not a writing course as such – you don’t need to be a writer. You’ve got something inside you haven’t been able to say yet. To receive more information or ask more questions about the course, please fill in your details and message.

I’ve experienced traumatic loss, carrying our middle child to full term knowing for the most part she might only live a short while. Ivy eventually died, in fact on the day before she was born. This experience taught me how to hold space for people navigating reproductive loss, infertility, and the grief of a life that looks different than they imagined. I’ve also lived for long periods in three different countries. Because of that I need to feel at home in my body first, before a new land can feel like home.
Accepting that loss is part of life, understanding the nature of change and suffering, being able to progress in life, and learning to do that through movement, has been such a rewarding experience for me that I wanted to bring back an ease of being in one’s body to other people.
