I work primarily with children who have experienced trauma, and adults who care for them. Perhaps you are a parent or professional, struggling with issues of self-regulation, motivation and burn-out. Whether activated by issues from your own childhood, or navigating complexities of practice, I can help you reflect and transform how you show up at work and in your creative life. Reconnect with what you love, and have more available for others.

Together, we will playfully explore a range of arts, movement and meditative activities designed to support your own lived experience and personal expression. Trauma-informed play support is incredibly impactful at all ages. We can meet online or outside and practice simple skills of flexibility, creativity, resilience and connection.

Maybe you know what you love and want support in doing it more often, or feel detached from what used to make you happy. Therapeutic playwork can help individuals and teams reorient towards more ethical and aware collective practices.
