Many of us are coming to the realisation that not all of our symptoms can be resolved through more traditional therapies, that there is an innate wisdom in the body that stores and organizes our experiences, and that in order to fully integrate and heal, we need to engage with this wisdom.
This is where somatic therapy works as bridge between body, mind and experiences. Soma, the Greek word for ‘body’; the whole of an organism including all of its parts and layers. In somatic practices we start in the body and are guided by the body, working from the ground up, so to speak. Grounded in biology and physiology, somatic therapy is underpinned by the body’s natural drive toward homeostasis and wellness.
I guide people who feel lost, unfulfilled, disengaged and disenchanted by helping them heal the subtle systems of their bodies through somatic healing. Using intuitive guidance, embodiment practices, mindfulness, meditation, contemplation, reiki and breathwork I help them re-connect with their true selves, find joy, wellbeing, peace and happiness again. I am trauma-informed, actively engaged in Somatic Experiencing certification and have spent years exploring and harnessing the power of breathwork, meditation and embodiment practices.
"I feel very fortunate to have had incredibly healing experiences facilitated by Dawn.
The safe and caring space she held opened possibility for transformational breakdowns and breakthroughs. By the closing of each session I felt a deep level of peace that has been embodied and carried with me through my everyday. I am eternally thankful for the gentle wisdom that Dawn gifted me with and I look forward to more of her presence and connection."
"In a virtual breathwork session, I was amazed at the depth and power of the session. Dawn is a fantastic facilitator. She holds space fully & continually and provides caring & loving instruction for the session. Her voice is a grounding tether as the process unravels.
I felt safe and connected to her despite the distance between us."
"I have had the pleasure of being a part of several breathwork sessions with Dawn. The experience is transformational. The sessions I’ve had have opened me up to a deeper understanding of myself and connection with the consciousness of the Universe. I often leave the session in a state of euphoria as the release of the emotions are so pure and satisfying."
