About me
How are you feeling? maybe you are looking for some emotional support and want to find a way to release stress and/or anxiety.
Anxiety and stress can show up as body tension, a racing heart, struggling to sleep, headaches and difficulty to focus etc. Besides talk therapy, I also show you various techniques to relax the mind and body, including EFT/tapping. I can also help support you to release any limiting self-beliefs, fears, or phobias. So that you can thrive and achieve whatever you want in life going forward.
In online sessions, I can help you naturally release these stresses. EFT is explained below, but it is better experienced than explained! Online and Face to Face sessions are available, click 'Book a Session' above. Free discovery calls are available.
From personal experience, I know how it feels to have that horrible racing heart, sweaty palms, shaking and difficulty taking a deep breath. We often want to hide that from the people around us, not wanting to burden them, feeling embarrassed or ashamed we can't "hold it together". But, there is hope of living more comfortably in your own body, and I am here to support you do that. Drop me a message if you'd like to learn more about working with me, a free 20-minute Zoom call is available if you like to get to know me more first, no obligation, it would be great to chat with you.
EFT: Emotional Freedom Techniques, also known as Tapping. This is a specialist type of talking therapy, which includes fingertip tapping on acupressure points(self-applied technique) on the face and upper body. EFT is a powerful way to comfortably release anxiety, stress, low self-belief, and to increase your confidence and happiness levels. EFT can also remove tension regarding upcoming stressful events that you may be apprehensive, nervous or scared about. I can support you in moving forward and working through anything you feel is standing in your way of living the life you deserve.
I can also support you in overcoming various other issues such as self-limiting beliefs, emotional blocks, fears and phobias. Even if you don't know where your issue stemmed from, working together using EFT to release anyway.
Do you identify as a people pleaser? maybe you struggle to say no or to set boundaries confidently. I can support you to learn to let go of people-pleasing, to increase your self-worth and to gain control of your well-being.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How can I feel better about asking for help? I know it can be nerve-wracking reaching out for the first time, please ask me any questions you think will help you feel more comfortable during a session. EFT/tapping focuses on relaxing the nervous system by getting your body out of the fight/flight/freeze/fawn response. So these sessions aren't designed to trigger you, we go at your pace, follow your thoughts and I'll support you through your journey of self-discovery. I promise it will be at the speed you need it to be!
- What happens in the first session? firstly, we can have a chat and see what kinds of struggles you are looking for support with. You can let me know what your priorities are, and what you are looking for from sessions. We will make sure we feel we are a good match for each other. I'll introduce you to Emotional Freedom Techniques, and how we'll be using them during sessions and make sure you are comfortable.
- Do I need to know where my issues stem from? No, we can talk it thought bit by bit and a big part of EFT/tapping is noticing your body's sensations during times of stress etc, the tapping can work with the subconscious mind to release the underlying issues
- For online sessions - If you aren't confident using Zoom, then don't worry, we can do a little run-through together so that you can get comfortable with it. Please ask me.
- For face-to-face sessions - If you are worried about anything to do with coming to "The Happy Body Wellness Centre" just ask me. We can do a virtual run-through with photos/videos, and use EFT tapping to get past any fears about visiting the venue. No pressure, I will support you through the process.
