offers a gentle, heart-centered approach that blends proven somatic therapy practices to support self-regulation in the face of overwhelming feelings, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, and self-sabotaging patterns. These patterns of conditioning may once have protected us in childhood but, over time, often replaced our innate sense of connectedness with ourselves and others. Together, we work to heal early emotional wounds, balance the nervous system, rebuild inner safety, nurture resilience, and find authentic connection, with yourself and with those around you.<\/p><p>At the heart of this work is a process grounded in mutual connection and co-regulation. This embodied relational experience, grounded in our neurobiological system for social engagement, helps establish the safety and trust essential for a secure therapeutic relationship. In practice, this means deeply attuning to your needs, and offering you a grounded and stable presence with clear and healthy boundaries.<\/p><p>BME is rooted in mindful embodiment: the integration of body and mind through awareness. In relation to trauma healing, this involves gently revisiting unfinished survival responses such as fight, flight, or freeze. These experiences are carefully tracked and paced, allowing the body-mind system to complete what was once interrupted. In doing so, stored tension is released and greater physiological regulation and emotional resilience can emerge. This reflects the principles of <b> Somatic Experiencing\u00ae (SE)<\/b>, the foundational somatic therapy modality at play. Alongside SE, BME also draws strategically on <b>Bodynamic\u00ae<\/b>, a body-oriented psychotherapeutic method of analysis that integrates psychological development with muscle awareness and tension patterns to address trauma, deepen self-awareness, and support personal growth through the body\u2013mind connection.<\/p><p>Trauma healing unfolds through sensory awareness, breath, movement, safe exploration of emotions, and, where appropriate, therapeutic touch. BME incorporates <b> NeuroAffective Touch\u00ae (NAT) <\/b> \u2014 a unique method combining regulating, hands-on contact with a caring relational presence. NAT further addresses the attachment and relational imprints of developmental trauma wounding. In addition, BME also benefits from the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a title=\"Wheel of Consent\" href=\"https:\/\/www.schoolofconsent.org\/wheel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b> Wheel of Consent <\/b><\/a><\/span> framework, supporting clients in understanding and communicating their needs, boundaries, and desires.<\/p><p>With time, the body\u2013mind integration process helps release the imprints of trauma held in the body and softens the grip of lifelong conditioning. In doing so, it supports the rewiring of the nervous system, strengthens the capacity to navigate stress and relationships, and opens the path toward a more grounded, resilient, self-empowered, and whole way of living.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-31619033\" data-id=\"31619033\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2bfe813f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2bfe813f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a title=\"Somatic Experiencing\" href=\"https:\/\/www.somaticexperiencing.com\/somatic-experiencing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Somatic Experiencing<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-13e1a7eb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"13e1a7eb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>SE is a trauma-focused therapy developed by Dr. Peter Levine that helps release trauma-related stress and tension stored in the body by focusing on bodily sensations rather than just thoughts or emotions.

This has helped me to be more grounded and present in challenging moments in my life, and to choose healthier and more self-compassionate responses. <br><br> The in-person NeuroAffective touch sessions have also had a big impact on me by helping me learn to feel safe in the presence of another person and helping me learn how to feel and express difficult emotions, in a safe and controlled environment. <br><br>I have always found Fernando to be a genuine, sensitive, compassionate, supportive and kind person. He is a highly attuned and skilful therapist, who makes our sessions feel very safe and comfortable. This has been true both online and in person, where he is always cautious to respect boundaries and personal space, and to ensure I am comfortable with any physical contact during the session. I quickly felt able to trust him and have found our sessions together to be extremely valuable at a difficult time in my life.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-meta\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-meta-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-name\">Tim, 35<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-job\"> <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7789a92 elementor-view-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"7789a92\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon elementor-animation-grow\">\n\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-quote-left\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-df21f6a elementor-widget elementor-widget-testimonial\" data-id=\"df21f6a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"testimonial.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-content\">I also just wanted to say a big thank you for all the support you\u2019ve given me over the time working together.

I was in a state of total emotional numbness, had lost my sense of self, my creativity, my ability to connect, I couldn\u2019t even cry, I really was at crisis point. <br>\nOver 8 months I worked first on a weekly, then bi monthly basis with Fernando, the work we did was life changing. Fernando\u2019s approach was gentle and encouraging, I never felt like I was pushed too far, he has a 6th sense for knowing at exactly which point to pause and feel through the difficult emotions that come up.\nThe techniques he taught me were so empowering, for the first time in my life I actually know how to feel and work through my emotions, whereas before had often avoided them because they often became overwhelming.\n<br>\nThis kind of work takes time, you have to trust the process and the slow unravelling as you get in touch with a deeper sense of yourself, but the commitment to the work will pay off over and over again.\n<br><br>\nI cannot recommend Fernando enough for his expertise and gentle approach to the work he does, I always felt incredibly safe and supported in our sessions (Something that is crucial as a survivor of SA), and he\u2019s also helped me to notice my own patterns through his keen attention to the details in my behaviour.\n<br><br>\nIf you are looking for a therapist who is deeply passionate about helping his clients to succeed, a therapist who can help you work through deep traumas in a compassionate manner that will never push you too far, but just the right amount to do the deep work, then Fernando is the person for you.\u201d<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-meta\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-meta-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-name\">Sylvia, 29<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-job\"> <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5ef9242 elementor-view-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"5ef9242\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon elementor-animation-grow\">\n\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-quote-left\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-72a9d5f elementor-widget elementor-widget-testimonial\" data-id=\"72a9d5f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"testimonial.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-content\">Over the past two years, working with Fernando has been proper good.

With his expertise and guidance, the intensity of the fires that raged so fiercely within me have quieted, leaving me more grounded in the rhythm of daily life. His joy is contagious; you cannot help but smile, and his playful spirit spurs alchemy, bringing lightness even to the heaviest of moments. It is clear that he cares, both for the work he does and for those he supports. <br> \nThrough this journey, I have discovered the experience of connecting with another person.

My work is somatic and integrative rather than clinical sex therapy. I do not offer clinical diagnoses or treatments.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">I support people with sexuality through a body-centred, trauma-informed approach, with a particular focus on emotional regulation and the embodied patterns underlying sexual behaviours. This can include sexual trauma, difficulties with relationships and intimacy, and compulsive sexual behaviours such as problematic pornography use, or sex &#8216;addiction&#8217;, which I view as an impulse control disorder rooted in emotional dysregulation \u2014 an area I can definitely help with.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">I also support people healing from sexual abuse, unwanted or coercive touch, experiences of force-feeding, and other experiences in which their bodily boundaries or choices were not respected, as well as difficult or invasive medical experiences, such as painful pelvic examinations or gynaecological procedures. These experiences can deeply affect our sense of safety, trust, intimacy and connection with the body, and can be particularly difficult to talk about.<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>What does your role involve, exactly?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">I am a Somatic Therapy and Trauma Healing Practitioner, supporting body\u2013mind integration with a focus on developmental, or childhood, trauma.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">My role is to offer a safe, compassionate and attuned space for clients to explore and process their experiences within a somatic therapy framework, drawing primarily on <em>Somatic Experiencing<\/em>, helping you develop greater emotional regulation, resilience, inner safety and choice.<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>Do I need to have experienced trauma to benefit from somatic therapy?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">Not at all. Somatic therapy is not exclusively for people who identify as having experienced trauma. It can also support those navigating chronic stress, anxiety, persistent tension, emotional overwhelm, depressive symptoms, or difficulties with emotional regulation and relationships.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\nYou do not need to consider yourself traumatised, or identify particular experiences as traumatic, to benefit from this approach. We can begin with what you are experiencing in the present, exploring bodily sensations, nervous system responses, and the resources that may help you develop a greater sense of inner safety, emotional balance, and freedom of choice.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">What matters is not whether your experiences fit a particular label, but how they are affecting your wellbeing and what you would like to explore or change.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\nIn the case of depressive symptoms, it is also important to assess whether this approach is appropriate for the person&#8217;s needs and whether it may be beneficial alongside clinical care, when necessary.\n<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>What is Body-Mind Experiencing (BME)? <\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">Body\u2013Mind Experiencing is my own evolving, holistic approach, integrating body, mind, and spirit, and acknowledging our inherent connection to the Earth \u2014 through gravity and grounding, for example.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">BME goes beyond trauma healing. It can support you in finding your voice, speaking your truth, reconnecting with your creativity, and expressing more fully the vitality that is already within you \u2014 whether you are an artist, a professional, or simply someone ready to live with greater freedom, authenticity and aliveness.<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>What does a Body-Mind Experiencing session look like in practice?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">A BME session typically starts with whatever is present for you in the moment. We sit with it briefly, and if something feels potentially overwhelming, we bring a supportive resource into the foreground.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">The focus is not on staying in the story or analyzing the descriptive details of an event. Instead, we track what arises moment by moment \u2013 becoming aware of body sensations, feelings, imagery, movement, and breath. The verbal narrative simply serves as an entry point into the body. The intention is to feel the felt response to a story rather than thinking about or analyzing it; meaning and insight emerge naturally in their own time. Generally, the path forward is to slow down the pace of the mind so we can stay present with the wisdom of the body.<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>What is <em>NeuroAffective Touch<\/em>?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">NeuroAffective Touch (NAT) is a polyvagal-informed somatic approach that integrates relational and psychodynamic psychotherapy with the therapeutic use of touch and bodywork. By highlighting the primary role of body awareness and emphasizing its equal importance to the mind, NAT addresses emotional, relational, and cognitive developmental deficits that cannot be reached by verbal means alone. This approach transcends the limitations of talk therapy for healing core relational wounds.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>What symptoms might indicate that <em> NeuroAffective Touch<\/em> could help you?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 You feel that you missed out on the safe, consistent care, warmth and attunement you needed in early childhood \u2014 perhaps experiencing abandonment, neglect, abuse or betrayal before you even had words to understand what was happening.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\n\u2013 You carry a deep sense of tension, insecurity or unease that feels as though it has been with you for as long as you can remember.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 You often feel disconnected from your body or emotions, or have a sense that you are not quite \u201cwhole\u201d, while emotional or physical closeness may feel difficult to tolerate.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 You live with a body that feels constantly on guard \u2014 like you&#8217;re bracing for something to happen \u2014, tense, overwhelmed or unable to fully relax.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 You find yourself caught in recurring cycles of self-judgment, shame or guilt, without knowing how to break free from them.<\/div>\n<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>What to expect in a therapy session of <em> NeuroAffective Touch<\/em>?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 <strong>Setting and clothing:<\/strong> You remain fully clothed throughout the session. You may lie comfortably on a padded treatment table or sit in a chair, depending on what feels most comfortable and supportive for you.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\n\u2013 <strong>Initial conversation:<\/strong> We begin with a gentle check-in about how you are feeling, what you are noticing in your body, any relational patterns you may be experiencing, and what you would like to explore.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 <strong>Somatic awareness:<\/strong> I may invite you to gently notice your internal experience \u2014 your breath, physical sensations, areas of tension or numbness, or places where you feel more connected or disconnected from yourself. There is no need to force anything or get it \u201cright\u201d.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 <strong>Attuned touch:<\/strong> Unlike massage, NeuroAffective Touch uses light, slow and supportive contact rather than manipulation of the body. This might include warm pillows or blankets, or gentle contact with areas such as the back, shoulders or feet.<strong> Touch is always optional, fully consensual, and guided entirely by you. You remain free to pause, change or stop the touch at any time<\/strong>.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 <strong>Body-Mind dialogue and integration:<\/strong> Throughout the session, we stay connected and work collaboratively, paying attention to what you are experiencing in the moment. Together, we gently explore the relationship between your mind and body \u2014 including where you may feel connected, disconnected, or more at ease within yourself. You may notice emotions, memories, sensations or subtle shifts in your body. We give these experiences space and time, allowing your nervous system to gradually find greater safety, regulation and connection.<\/div>\n<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>Why is touch important in therapy?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">Touch is at the foundation of our earliest relational experience. From the beginning of life, nurturing and respectful touch plays an important role in the infant\u2013caregiver relationship and in our developing sense of safety, connection and belonging.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\nWhen care and attuned touch are missing, inconsistent, or experienced as unsafe, these early experiences can remain with us in ways that are felt in the body, even when we have no words or clear memories for them.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">Gentle, supportive and respectful touch can offer a profoundly restorative experience \u2014 creating an opportunity to encounter the body with safety, care and attunement. For someone who has never experienced healing touch in this way, that experience can be deeply meaningful, helping to restore a sense of connection, trust and hope.<\/div>\n<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>Can I benefit from a <em>NeuroAffective Touch<\/em> session without having a history of trauma?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">Yes, absolutely. You do not need to have a diagnosis \u2014 or even identify with the word \u201ctrauma\u201d \u2014 to benefit from this work. A NeuroAffective Touch session can offer an opportunity for deep relaxation, grounding and balance: a restorative opportunity to slow down, reconnect with your body and simply experience being supported.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\nAt the same time, the deep rest and gentle sensory awareness that NAT can invite may bring sensations, memories or emotional states into awareness that you had not previously noticed. This is not necessarily a sign that something is wrong; it can simply be part of becoming more aware of your inner experience.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">A one-off session may not be the most appropriate starting point if you have a history of difficult, invasive or non-consensual touch, particularly if the usual physical setup of NAT \u2014 lying fully clothed on your back on a cushioned treatment table \u2014 might evoke discomfort, vulnerability or distress. In these circumstances, we can first explore what feels safe and appropriate for you, including possible adjustments to the session, such as sitting on a chair instead of lying on the treatment table, and consider whether a more gradual therapeutic approach would be helpful. Your comfort, boundaries and freedom of choice remain central throughout.<\/div>\n<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>In summary, what Somatic Therapy and Trauma Healing can help me with?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\u2013 <strong>Anxiety, fears, panic attacks and nervous-system activation:<\/strong>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 1.0px;

The patterns I work with often follow a cycle: emotional discomfort \u2014 such as stress, fatigue, boredom, loneliness, anxiety or shame \u2014 leads to an impulse to engage in a behavior that brings quick relief. The relief fades, and guilt or renewed discomfort can reinforce the cycle. I work with:\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px; margin-left: 32.0px;\">\n\n\u2013 <strong>Problematic pornography use or compulsive sexual behaviour;<\/strong>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 5.0px;\">\n\n\u2013 <strong>Doomscrolling and compulsive social media use;<\/strong>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 5.0px;\">\n\n\u2013 <strong>Compulsive video gaming when used to avoid difficult emotions;<\/strong>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 5.0px;\">\n\n\u2013 <strong>Overworking and workaholism.<\/strong>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px; margin-left: -32.0px;\">\n\nMy somatic approach helps you recognise how impulses are experienced in the body \u2014 such as tension, restlessness, or a strong pull to act \u2014 and develop greater capacity to pause, regulate difficult emotions, and choose how to respond. The behaviour is understood as an attempt to cope, rather than a character flaw. The aim is not necessarily abstinence, but a healthier relationship with the behaviour and greater freedom of choice.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\n<strong>This is different from addiction treatment<\/strong>, which requires specialised clinical training and approaches. Some forms of addiction, particularly substance use, can involve physical tolerance and physiological withdrawal, which may carry medical risks and require specialised support. Gambling disorders may also require safeguards such as financial protections and structured relapse prevention. <strong>I do not work with substance addiction or compulsive gambling.<\/strong>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">This work may be a good fit if you find yourself repeatedly turning to a behaviour for emotional relief, have struggled to change through willpower alone, and want to understand and shift the underlying pattern, including through greater body awareness.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>Can I work with you if I engage in self-harm, such as cutting, or experience suicidal thoughts?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">Engaging in self-harm, such as cutting, or experiencing suicidal thoughts doesn\u2019t automatically mean somatic therapy isn\u2019t right for you. I have experience supporting clients who struggle with intermittent or recurring self-harm, as well as those who have suicidal thoughts without an active intention or plan to act on them. I approach these experiences with compassion, sensitivity, and without judgement, recognising that each person&#8217;s circumstances, needs, and capacity for support are different.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\nWhether we can work together is considered on a case-by-case basis, taking into account your current emotional stability, personal safety, existing support, and whether my approach can offer an appropriate and sufficiently safe therapeutic environment.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\nAs a non-clinical practitioner, I do not provide crisis intervention or specialist suicide risk assessment. My practice does not extend to individuals with a history of suicide attempts or those experiencing active suicidal intent, including those who are making concrete plans or preparations to end their lives.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\">\n\nWhere additional or more specialised support is needed, I will communicate this openly and sensitively, recognising that working with a qualified mental health professional may be more appropriate, either alongside or instead of somatic therapy.\n<div style=\"margin-top: 10.0px;\"><strong>My priority is not simply whether we can work together, but whether the support I offer is appropriate for you, with your safety, wellbeing, and dignity at the heart of that decision.<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<dl>\n \t<dt style=\"display: list-item; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 1px;\"><strong>\nCan I work with you if I have a psychiatric diagnosis?<\/strong><\/dt>\n \t<dd style=\"margin-left: 0; margin-top: 5.0px;\">Having a psychiatric diagnosis does not automatically mean that somatic therapy is unsuitable for you.
