Individual Therapy
(Online)



I am currently offering sessions at Altum Health



Each session will be guided by your specific needs and where you are in your journey. My approach to therapy is holistic and informed by the many trainings I have done in Eastern and Western psychology.


I draw from the frameworks of Transpersonal Psychology, Buddhist Philosophy, Vedanta, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and Enhanced Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Eating Disorders, (CBT-E).


Work with me

When a woman enters the labyrinth of recovery she follows a twisting, turning, winding path to her centre where she reclaims her inner authority. Finding the essence of who she is as a woman, she exists the labyrinth, integrating this vision with a new way of being in the world."

Interoceptive Awareness and Emotion Regulation



Key skills for sustaining and moving toward a full and lasting recovery.



Emotion regulation is a key skill not only for recovery but also for life. Effective emotion regulation must include the body and not only the mind. In my approach, the body is viewed as a wise teacher, a direct pathway for helping you develop a trusting and nourishing relationship with yourself.


These techniques work by helping you enhance your self-trust and interoceptive awareness. Interoceptive awareness refers to your ability to identify, assess, and appraise your internal bodily sensations and how your emotions are manifesting in your body. This will help you learn how to regulate the stressors and anxiety you hold in your body in a skilful way (i.e. in a way that does not perpetuate your struggles with body image and food).


I believe that these skills are key for sustaining and moving you toward a full recovery. Through our work together, you will learn techniques that you can practice at home, and as you go about your daily life. These techniques are based on neuroscience and the practices of yoga and meditation.

Meditation Training



£90 / 1 hour
Learn how to cultivate mental and emotional balance.



Meditation is a technique for stilling the mind and body, connecting with the deeper dimensions of your being, building concentration, and for understanding the true nature of phenomena. It is a wonderful tool for cultivating clarity, wellbeing, and resilience.


These sessions will help you develop the confidence to establish a daily meditation practice, and to apply the art of mindfulness in the moment when difficult mental and emotional states arise.


You will also learn how to create a space at home to support you in maintaining a daily practice. I typically recommend 8 weeks of dedicated 1 to 1 mentoring.
