Embodied Therapy
Embodied Therapy is a gentle, nervous-system-aware approach that invites your body into the healing process.
Healing begins by listening to the wisdom of your body.
There are times in life when talking alone isn't enough.
Your body holds stories your mind may not yet have words for. It carries the imprint of stress, burnout, trauma, grief, chronic overwhelm, and the countless ways you've learnt to survive.
Embodied Therapy is a gentle, nervous-system-aware approach that invites your body into the healing process.
Rather than asking you to push through or simply think differently, we begin by listening. Together we'll explore the language of your nervous system, reconnect with your body's innate wisdom, and gently build a greater sense of safety, regulation, and trust from the inside out.
Every person's journey is different, which is why I draw on a range of body-based approaches, always guided by your goals and the pace of your nervous system.
Whether we're working through counselling, yoga, mindful movement, or other somatic approaches, the intention remains the same:
To help you come home to yourself.
Yoga Informed Therapy
Where your body is gently heard - and softly beings to trust again
This isn’t a class. It’s not about stretching deeper or holding longer.
It’s an invitation inward — into a space where your body can soften, your breath can slow, and your nervous system can begin to feel safe enough to let go.
In these 1:1 sessions, we blend somatic counselling with trauma-informed yoga practices — gentle movement, stillness, and breath — at a pace that meets you exactly where you are. Together, we honour what your body is holding, without force or pressure to change it.
These sessions are for you if:
You feel disconnected from your body or unsure how to feel safe inside it
You live with chronic tension, fatigue, or nervous system dysregulation
You’re healing from trauma, grief, burnout, or emotional overload
You long for deeper body-based support that is therapeutic, not performative
We listen not just with words, but with movement.
With the subtle language of fascia, breath, emotion, and energy.
This is a space where nothing is too much — and you don’t have to explain everything to be deeply supported.
What to Expect
- Grounded check-ins woven with nervous system attunement
- Gentle movement sequences to meet your energy state
- Restorative postures, breathwork, and somatic release techniques
- Trauma-aware space: you’ll be invited, not instructed
- Emotional tracking, resourcing, and co-regulation throughout
Sessions unfold based on your body's needs — no two are ever the same.

Sensorimotor Psychotherapy® (Coming soon)
I'm currently undertaking advanced training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy®, a body-centred therapeutic approach developed for working with trauma, attachment, and the nervous system.
This approach recognises that our bodies often hold experiences that words alone cannot access. By gently integrating awareness of movement, sensation, emotion, and thought, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy supports healing that honours both the wisdom of the body and the stories we carry.
As I continue my professional training, I'll be thoughtfully weaving these learnings into my broader embodied approach to counselling and nervous system care.
A note from Kate
As a counsellor with additional training in trauma-informed yoga and somatic practices, I offer sessions for women who have talked through their struggles but still don’t feel settled in their bodies.
For some women, talking alone isn’t enough. The nervous system needs gentle, embodied support.
My approach to integrating movement and counselling is informed by specialised training with Dr Lauren Tober, including Mental Health Aware Yoga and an extended mentoring program focused on ethically blending therapeutic practice with trauma-informed movement. This ensures that any embodied work within our sessions remains grounded, clinically appropriate, and responsive to your nervous system’s capacity.
We begin slowly. With steadiness. Following your body’s lead.
Whether you’re navigating chronic stress, burnout, illness, spiritual trauma, or ongoing overwhelm, these sessions offer space to reconnect with your body in a way that feels safe and supported.
We start with one breath — and build from there.
