TESTIMONIALS

" I am experiencing things are shifting in my life. The dynamics, the interplays between the people, the difficult people in my life, they're changing, and this work really supports it. Thank you, and I really honour you, your courage, your commitment, your passion and your calling."

SOFIA

"Having previously worked with Karen one to one, I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the group format, but I genuinely loved it. It brought so many unexpected benefits, and the space felt deeply held and safe throughout.

Now, a month on, I notice how much more grounded and resourced I feel. I’m stepping into this year feeling readier for its challenges, and honestly quite grateful to myself for committing to this depth of work."

ANNA, WORKSHOP ATTENDEE

"I still can't believe what happened, it was by far the realest I've felt anything through all therapies. There is no denying that somatic work is the real deal! Still think its fuc**n crazy! (Good crazy of course."

JAMES

"Karen's warm and strong presence allowed me the space to be present with the tension and trauma within my body, I felt truly seen and heard in the space. And the use of Karen's singing voice felt like a hand was holding mine as we unlocked several doors of unreleased emotions."

TOM, MENTAL HEALTH WORKER

"Something in me shifted from the session and in the days since I've felt a calm sense of serenity. Thank you Karen for your light and your gift."

KAREN, BODYWORKER 

"Of all the different healing modalities I have tried this work has done more for me in two sessions than the last two years."

JESS, STAY AT HOME MOTHER 

"When I left I felt like a better version of myself, I had so much more positive energy. I have tried a few different healing modalities with other practitioners but this is on another level! I would definitely recommend Karen."

COLIN

"It's difficult to explain or understand but I feel a deeper sense of peace. I've also felt my intention being carried forward into my daily life. "

GEMMA, MENTAL HEALTH WORKER

"Karen holds a beautiful safe space which allows you to feel deeply and to be seen and heard. She has a calming energy which enabled me to settle and relax, connect with my body and go deeper. To trust and feel what arises from within."

FIONA, MENTAL HEALTH WORKER AND BODYWORKER

"I have been able to let go and feel there has been a definite shift and sense of healing, both physically and emotionally. I am journeying a little lighter and brighter now. I would highly recommend a session with Karen. 

SARAH, YOGA TEACHER

"An environment was created for me to feel comfortable enough to be vulnerable and share what I was feeling and where I felt the anger. Karen helped me release anger when she stomped on my behalf. I left the session being so aware of what I was feeling and continued my release in my personal space later that day."

ANDREA

"Through this therapy I felt we started to chip away at what my body is holding on to. It was really interesting to see what came up for me as well, thoughts and feelings wise. I feel like I know myself that much more now. Afterwards I felt an immense sense of peace."

JEMIMA

"She is a complete natural and provides a nurturing space. You can't really put into words the actual experience but each time it is completely different and each time I felt a shift within myself for the better. I can't thank her enough."

TAN

"Karen met me there, in the space underneath the words, in a space of comfortable vulnerability. Breathwork helped me reach a deeper part of myself that I usually fear, but I felt safe as Karen was alongside me where I was seen, heard and witnessed.  Her beautiful voice spoke for those parts within my body that I had somehow silenced, why and when I do not know, it was before I can remember; it doesn’t matter; the present is now."  

ALISON, THERAPIST

" I was very drawn to Karen to help me with this, and for a good reason, it was an incredible experience. I've had all sort of energy work over the years, and this was a powerful session of release and coming back home to myself."

LAURIE, HEALER AND GUIDE 

"The main thing I find is that I am speaking up more, especially in situations where I feel more secure. I am also finding that my thought patterns are changing and I feel more able to ask myself what I want and vocalise that when needed. Many thanks for such an eye, heart and voice opening session." 

PJM, who had a Removing the MASK session

" I felt really safe. It was okay to be myself, that was transformative especially from a neurodivergence (ND) view and masking, to be able to let it all out. Since the session something has settled, it's almost like a different state of mind. There was something in the session that dropped in terms of beliefs and what landed was 'I am loveable regardless. From a ND perspective that can be all very confirming and there is a settling for your nervous system. "

JR, Therapist, who had a Removing the MASK session
