About Me

My own healing journey has shaped everything I offer today. Having been through childhood trauma, I began experiencing pain symptoms at around 15 years old, which eventually led to a diagnosis of fibromyalgia in 2014.

 

In my late teens, I turned to counselling to help myself heal. While it was supportive and beneficial, my progress often felt slow. I would often find myself stuck looping through thoughts in my head but not feeling able to do anything to change them. It was as though understanding alone wasn’t enough.

 

Discovering yoga became a significant turning point. It helped me realise that much of what I was experiencing was embodied - not just held in my mind - and that reconnecting with my body was an essential part of healing. Through yoga and meditation, I learned to be present, feel more at home in myself, and develop a loving relationship with myself. From that place, I was finally able to make the changes I needed to support my wellbeing.

 

Along the way, I explored many different healing modalities. Whenever something genuinely helped me, I felt drawn to train in it too, both to deepen my own healing and better support others.

 

Over time, I found myself wondering whether there was a way to bring together everything I’d found most helpful under one holistic, therapeutic roof. Eventually, I stepped away from structured counselling and developed my own approach, The Swan Method.

 

I believe I’ve created the therapy I needed myself… a deeply intuitive, holistic and compassionate approach that prioritises nervous system support, helping to reduce the overwhelm and trauma-triggering that other therapies can sometimes unintentionally create.
