Welcome. I’m a somatic practitioner and educator based in Oxford, UK, specialising in listening — to bodies and their subtle communications.

Through touch and embodiment work, I help people develop greater literacy in their own bodies, so that their inherent signals can become guides rather than problems.

I’m interested in the ways our relational and emotional experiences inhabit tissues, and in the interplay between biomechanics, biochemistry and the nervous system.

I understand the body as responsive, adaptive, relational and deeply intelligent — continually communicating about how we are experiencing our relationships, work, communities and the wider world, and what we need to heal.

I see health as inseparable from the systems and relationships we live within, and believe we have profound capacity for healing, change and repair. The relationships we come to heal within can be as significant as the modalities we choose.

I’ve been in clinical practice since 2009 and teaching since 2017. In 2023, I co-founded The School for Ethical Touch with Pamela Samuelson, and I assist Kimberly Johnson with Jaguar workshops and Mothering the Bones intensives in the UK.

Please note that I’ll be on maternity leave from mid-October 2026 until late summer/autumn 2027. If you’re interested in working together, you’re very welcome to join my mailing list here. I’ll be in touch when I return.

And, so that you don’t miss my emails, please add my email address to your contacts or address book — otherwise I may end up in your spam folder!
