'The changes in my system are profound, the most amazing of these being a total freedom from a headache that had lasted 43 years. What I love most about working with Frances is the simplicity of her technique, it cuts straight through to the centre of the trauma without overwhelming or re-stimulating. Coming from a place of deep trauma, I now feel more rested in myself and safer in the world.' (Kay, June 2010). Read more...
Body-Mind approaches can facilitate very clear and functional connection with the person's own wisdom
I believe each individual has the innate ability to heal themselves. I assist each person to explore these abilities, in ways that work for them: click here. I've studied and practiced many models and techniques from Family Systems to Somatic Experiencing, with the belief that the more I know the more professionally and knowledgeably I can do my work.
My specialty areas of treatment are:
Shock Trauma and post traumatic reactions
