Ancient Mother Spiral Journey

A deeper, longer-form therapeutic journey through transformation.

The Ancient Mother Spiral© is a framework I have developed for those moving through a profound threshold — when an old way of being is changing and something new is beginning to emerge.

This is a 1.5-hour therapeutic journey, offering more spaciousness than a standard session for deeper exploration, embodiment and integration.

The Spiral is not a linear programme. We work with its movements as a living map, using the Ancient Mother Spiral floor map to help orient the journey and reflect on what is unfolding.

Depending on what feels right for you, our work may also move beyond the therapy room. I make use of a private woodland setting, where walking, nature and the physical experience of the Spiral can become part of the therapeutic process.

Creative and symbolic practices may also be woven into the work — including imagery, writing, sound, objects, sandtray and other forms of expression.

There is a more ritual and intentional quality to these journeys, while remaining grounded in therapeutic relationship, trauma sensitivity and your individual needs.

The intention is not to rush towards an outcome, but to create enough time and space for something deeper to be heard, felt and integrated.

This may be especially meaningful if you feel called towards a deeper, more immersive therapeutic journey alongside your psychological healing.

Non-Dual Embodied Inquiry

For some people, therapeutic work naturally opens into deeper questions about identity, consciousness, awareness and the experience of separation.

Non-Dual Embodied Inquiry is an aspect of my work that explores these questions through presence, embodiment and direct experience.

It is not something you need to choose as a separate therapy. Where appropriate, elements of this inquiry may be gently woven into our work, particularly when you are exploring spiritual awakening, existential questions or profound shifts in your sense of self.

Presence-Centered Psychotherapy — 1:1 Sessions

A space to slow down, listen inwardly and reconnect with yourself.

I offer intentional one-to-one psychotherapy for people who are navigating change, overwhelm, trauma, identity questions, relationships, burnout or a deeper sense that something in their life needs to shift.

My work is grounded in Presence-Centered Psychotherapy© — a trauma-sensitive, relational and embodied approach that begins with the understanding that you are not broken and do not need to be fixed.

Together, we create a space where you can slow down enough to notice what is happening beneath the surface.

We may explore your emotions, relationships, thoughts, bodily sensations, patterns and the parts of yourself that have learned to protect, adapt or hide.

I don't apply a fixed set of techniques to you. Instead, I draw from a range of therapeutic and embodied approaches according to who you are, how you process experience and what feels appropriate in the moment.

This may include:

• Internal Family Systems (IFS)

• Somatic and embodiment practices

• Trauma-informed mindfulness

• Jungian psychology and shadow work

• Family and ancestral exploration

• Creative and symbolic work

• Embodied inquiry and contemplative practices

The relationship between us is central.

You don't have to arrive knowing exactly what you need, and you don't have to trust me immediately. We can begin with what is actually happening for you.

This work may be especially meaningful if you are:

• navigating motherhood, identity or a major life transition

• living with neurodivergence, burnout or chronic overwhelm

• working through trauma, anxiety, grief or relationship difficulties

• feeling disconnected from yourself or your sense of belonging

• questioning an old way of living that no longer fits

• experiencing a spiritual awakening or profound inner shift

• longing to reconnect with your body, intuition or creativity

• a therapist, healer or practitioner seeking deeper personal integration

The intention is not to turn you into a different person.

It is to create enough safety and presence for you to meet yourself more fully — and to discover the wisdom, agency and wholeness that may already be there.

This is the main 1:1 therapeutic work I offer.

How We Might Work Together

Therapy doesn't always have to happen through words alone.

Depending on what feels supportive and appropriate for you, our work may include movement, nature, imagery, sound, writing, creative expression or symbolic exploration.

We might work with:

• Nature & Walk-and-Talk Therapy — using movement and the natural environment to support reflection and embodiment.

• Creative Expression — through imagery, journaling, poetry, voice, sound and other forms of creative exploration.

• Sandtray & Symbolic Work — using miniature objects and images to give form to experiences that may be difficult to put into words.

• Embodied Practices — gently noticing sensations, impulses and responses in the body.

• Archetypal & Imaginal Work — exploring symbols, stories and images that may illuminate something deeper within your experience.

There is no expectation that you need to be “creative” or have any artistic ability.

These are simply different doorways into experience.

We follow what feels meaningful for you rather than forcing a particular method.
