About me
I’m an Integrative Clinical Hypnotherapist, Rebirthing Breathwork & Somatic Practitioner, Sexuality & Intimacy Coach, LGBTQ+ Mentor & Founder of Breathnosis® and Sensual Serenity®.
I hold space for high achieving neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ women to reduce stress, heal trauma and feel calmer and more connected to themselves and their bodies. Through a blend of therapeutic and coaching modalities, I help you slow down, cultivate confidence, experience more pleasure, aliveness and vitality, and have deeply present, intimate relationships.
My style is warm, person-centred, compassion-focussed, holistic and bespoke, centring your health history, beliefs, preferences, pace, discernment and desired outcomes.
I'm passionate about creating safer, trauma-informed, inclusive and affirming spaces for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent people and bring clinical knowledge, expertise and CPD training as well as through my lived experience.
I integrate a bespoke combination of therapeutic and coaching modalities which work with your conscious, subconscious and unconscious mind, body and spirit. These include: clinical hypnotherapy, rebirthing breathwork, conscious connected breathwork, breathwork relaxation techniques, somatics, parts work, meditation, mindfulness, transformative coaching, existential coaching, sexuality, love and relationship coaching, Emotional Freedom Technique, inherited family trauma work, and embodiment practices.
With seven years of experience working with private clients and clinical supervision, I developed Breathnosis®, a trauma-informed, integrative and bespoke methodology. Breathnosis® combines the science and holistic healing benefits of clinical hypnotherapy, rebirthing breathwork, breathwork relaxation and somatic awareness techniques.
Breathnosis® opens a gentle gateway to reconnect you to yourself and your body, process emotions, heal trauma and rewire your unconscious and subconscious mind and body & optimise your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being.
You can work with me 1:1 over 3-6 months through Sensual Serenity®, a bespoke holistic therapy & somatic coaching package or through booking a single Breathnosis® Therapy session package, including recordings from our session and integration support on Telegram.
