01 · Breathwork Therapy

Breathwork is at the heart of my practice, because, quite simply, it works

Not in a shiny "fix your life in three sessions" kind of way, but in the slower, more honest way of helping people come back into relationship with themselves.

I offer guided breathwork sessions that support nervous system regulation, emotional resilience and deeper connection to the body. My approach is grounded, trauma-aware and practical. I'm less interested in peak experiences and more interested in helping people feel safer, steadier and more alive in their everyday lives.

I primarily work with Conscious Connected Breath (CCB), alongside other reflective and body-based practices including somatic sensing, journaling, inner-inquiry work, myofascial release, IFS work and Trauma Release Exercises (TRE).

Breathwork has been an important part of my own healing journey, supporting me through experiences of trauma, ADHD, burnout and body dysmorphia. I bring this lived experience into the room, whilst trying not to take myself too seriously. I trust the body's innate intelligence deeply. My role is not to "fix" people, but to help create the conditions where healing, insight and reconnection can happen naturally.

I offer

  • 1:1 breathwork sessions
  • Group breathwork journeys
  • Online and in-person sessions
  • Retreats and workshops
  • Breathwork integrated into leadership and organisational spaces

Particularly supportive for people navigating

  • Burnout & overwhelm

  • Nervous system dysregulation
  • Social & environmental justice work
  • Creative block or loss of direction
  • Reconnecting with voice, purpose & boundaries
  • Body dysmorphia
  • ADHD & overwhelm, especially in women

How to work with me

1

A discovery call

We have a free 15-minute call to work out together what you need and your intentions. I share the principles of breathwork and how it might support you.

2

Your session

We book a 1.5-hour breathwork session, in person or online, where the real work happens.

3

Integration (optional)

We have a follow-up debrief and coaching session on your goals and what you're working with.

02 · Grief Tending

Grief is a healthy response to living in a world that is hurting

Whether it's personal loss, climate grief, burnout, heartbreak, injustice or simply the ache of being human: grief needs somewhere to go. It needs to be metabolised. For those of us born into late-stage capitalist, post-industrial societies, we were never taught how.

I create spaces where grief can be named, witnessed and integrated with care and honesty. Sometimes that looks quiet and reflective. Sometimes it looks messy, funny, angry or unexpectedly relieving. Grief is rarely linear, and I don't believe we need to pathologise it. I see griefwork as making space for what's real, without rushing to fix, tidy up or move on from it.

My work in this area has been shaped by years in environmental and social justice movements, where grief, exhaustion and moral injury are often sitting just beneath the surface.

I offer

  • 1:1 grief support
  • Group grief circles
  • Grief-informed breathwork sessions
  • Workshops for organisations and activist spaces
  • Ritual and reflective practice for times of transition and loss

I fundraised for, co-conspired on and edited Weaving Grief, the Body and Transformative Justice, alongside Camille Barton and Healing Justice London, and trained as a Grief Doula with the International Doula Life Movement.

At its core, this work is about helping people stay connected to themselves and each other, even in the midst of uncertainty, heartbreak or change.

03 · Facilitation

Fifteen years helping groups have the conversations that matter

I've spent over 15 years facilitating conversations in activist spaces, charities, conferences, community projects and international gatherings. I'm especially interested in helping groups have difficult conversations without collapsing into avoidance, blame or burnout.

My facilitation style is warm, grounded and relational. I care about creating spaces where people can think clearly, speak honestly and stay connected, particularly when there are differences in power, perspective or lived experience. I bring a mix of structure, intuition and humour, alongside a strong understanding of group dynamics, nervous systems and conflict.

I support groups and organisations with

  • Facilitation and hosting
  • Team culture and communication
  • Navigating conflict and tension
  • Burnout and resilience
  • Embodied leadership
  • Strategy and reflective retreats
  • Difficult conversations around justice, power and identity
  • Designing thoughtful, inclusive group processes

My work integrates trauma-informed practice, somatic awareness and reflective process design, but always in a way that feels human and accessible rather than overly clinical or abstract.

04 · Coaching

Collaborative, practical, and rooted in honest conversation

I tend to work with people who hold a lot: leaders, carers, activists, founders, facilitators, people in transition, and people trying to do meaningful work without losing themselves in the process. Together we slow things down enough to hear what's actually going on beneath the noise.

Sometimes people come to me because they're burnt out. Sometimes because they've lost direction. Sometimes because they're carrying responsibility for everyone else and can't hear themselves anymore.

I'm not interested in performance coaching or hyper-productivity. I care more about helping people make decisions that are aligned with their values, bodies and actual lives.

Areas I commonly support people with

  • Burnout & chronic overwhelm
  • Women in leadership
  • Navigating conflict & responsibility
  • Leadership transitions
  • Purpose & direction
  • Grief & emotional resilience
  • Values-led decision making
  • Sustaining long-term work in change spaces

My approach draws from coaching, somatic work, systems thinking, breathwork and years of working alongside people trying to create change in complex systems.

+ Organisational Coaching & Culture Support

Healthy organisations are built by humans, and humans need space to breathe

I support organisations, networks and teams to build healthier ways of working that are resilient, relational and sustainable over the long term.

A lot of organisations working for positive change are carrying exhaustion beneath the surface. Good people become overstretched. Conflict gets avoided. Urgency takes over. Teams lose connection to purpose and to each other. My work helps teams pause long enough to reconnect with what matters and build cultures they can actually thrive within.

I support organisations with

  • Team facilitation and retreats
  • Leadership development
  • Organisational culture and communication
  • Burnout prevention and resilience
  • Conflict navigation
  • Embodied leadership practices
  • Reflective strategy processes
  • Trust-building and shared responsibility
  • Values-led ways of working

I work with charities, grassroots organisations, social justice movements, networks and purpose-led organisations navigating complexity and change.

05 · Food Systems Change

Food and farming have been central to my life for over 15 years

Before I was facilitating breathwork sessions, I was organising conferences, running campaigns, working with farmers, artists, activists and food organisers, and asking big questions about how we build food systems that are fairer, more connected and more alive.

I was Conference Manager for the Oxford Real Farming Conference, one of the UK's leading gatherings for agroecology and food systems transformation. That experience deeply shaped how I think about collaboration, movement-building and creating spaces where difficult but necessary conversations can happen well.

I also co-led the Stop the Rot campaign with This Is Rubbish, a creative national campaign exploring food waste, food justice and the absurdities of our broken food system, combining activism, public engagement, art and storytelling.

Over the years I've worked across

  • Agroecology and food sovereignty
  • Regenerative farming and local food systems
  • Movement-building and campaign work
  • Conference and event leadership
  • Community food projects
  • Creative public engagement
  • Facilitation across the food and farming sector
  • Storytelling, belonging and connection to land

Farming, breathwork, facilitation and systems change might seem like different worlds, but to me they're deeply connected. All of them ask the same questions: How do we stay connected? How do we build resilience? How do we create conditions for life to thrive?
