Welcome, friend
The structural and the emotional are one conversation
There is a moment, in the quiet of a session, when the body begins to reveal what's going on underneath.
I have spent my career learning to listen for it. With a background woven through chiropractic, health sciences and psychology, I came to understand early that the structural and the emotional are not two separate conversations. They are one. The body holds what the mind has carried. The nervous system remembers what words cannot always reach.
My work centres on women moving through the seasons of their lives, on babies arriving into the world with their own unspoken stories, on children growing into themselves.
“I follow the body. I let it lead.”
I have found that healing rarely happens in a single dramatic moment. It happens in the gentle accumulation of sessions, in a nervous system that slowly learns it is safe, in a body that gradually releases what it no longer needs to protect.
I believe you are not broken. I believe you are patterned. And patterns, with the right attention, can change.
Who I Work With
A clinical lens for women, babies & children
Symptoms rarely tell the whole story. A feeding difficulty may be a cranial story. A mother's persistent neck pain may be the weight of everything she is holding. A teenager's rounded shoulders may have less to do with posture than with how it feels to take up space.
Women
“A mother's persistent neck pain may be the weight of everything she is holding.”
Care for women across the seasons of life: preconception, pregnancy, postpartum, and the years beyond. Webster Technique certified for pregnancy, with attention to the structural, hormonal and emotional layers that move with you.
Babies
“A feeding difficulty may be a cranial story.”
Gentle paediatric and cranial chiropractic for babies arriving into the world with their own unspoken stories: feeding challenges, tongue-tie and oral restriction, settling, sleep, head shape and reflux.
Children & Teens
“A teenager's rounded shoulders may have less to do with posture than with how it feels to take up space.”
Care for children growing into themselves, from early developmental milestones through to teenage postural patterns, attention, jaw and breathing concerns, and the emotional landscape of growing up.
