How does it work?
-
All sessions are co-created, with the intent of providing a safe and open space for you to explore whatever sparks your curiosity.
Session Structure
Opening Conversation: The first part of each session is dedicated to setting the tone for our work together. We’ll talk about what brings you to the session, clarify your intention, and collaboratively decide on the focus and direction. This first part of the session is a conversation, allowing us to align on what you want to explore.
Exploration and Practice: In the main part of the session, we’ll put your intention into practice, guided by our initial conversation. This can include a range of approaches, from somatic therapy and body-based coaching to touch-oriented exercises designed to explore specific issues.
Radical acceptance, non-judgment, and ongoing consent are foundational, allowing our exploration to unfold in different directions. While this openness may take some getting used to, the process itself is a powerful part of the work.
Reflection and Integration: The final part of the session is for reflection. We’ll digest and integrate the experience, considering insights or new awareness gained. This helps you begin to internalise the learning from our work.
A Process of Growth
This work often initiates a longer-term journey of growth and self-reflection, where learning unfolds over time. We will practice engaging mindfully with this process, helping you stay connected and open to the ongoing exploration beyond each session.
-
Each session lasts approximately 2.5 hours. This is longer than standard talk-therapy sessions because of the intimate and deep nature of the work that we do. I tend to keep my sessions to around 2.5 hours because I find that any longer can feel too much to integrate and digest — but I never book clients back-to-back, and so I am happy to give clients a bit more time if needed.
-
I charge 100 pounds per session (with each session lasting around 2.5 hours).
The rate is the same, whether for individual or couples work.
-
In-person.
Online sessions may be an option in certain cases, depending on the nature of the work you are interested in.
-
I see clients at The Practice Rooms in London, near King’s Cross (N1 9RD).
Depending on individual circumstances, I am happy to consider other arrangements, including seeing clients in their own private spaces.
I find there are pros and cons to doing the work in different spaces, and it may be interesting to play with the different feelings around safety, comfort, familiarity, etc.
-
No.
You will not ‘have to’ do absolutely anything, ever. What happens in our sessions is entirely up to you, and discussed and consensually agreed in our sessions.
Depending on the sort of work we agree to do, and subject to your (and my) limits, comfort level, and ongoing consent, you may choose to be naked (totally or partially) for part of your session, or you may ask to be touched — but these are merely possibilities that are available to you and that we can consider together.
-
No. Our sessions are focussed on you, on your relation to your body, etc., and so touch is generally one-way only. But we can certainly explore together questions such as, why would you like me to be naked?, or why would you like to touch me?
-
Depending on the sort of work we agree to do, and subject to our limits, comfort level, and ongoing consent, you may ask for our session to include touch.
Touch may be to any body parts we agreed, and it could be aimed at exploring emotional reactions, shame, pleasure, etc. It could be external or internal (including genital or anal), depending on the intention for our work, agreements, limits, and consent.
-
Yes, totally (of course!).

Certo!

Get in touch! …and we can talk about anything else
