Softness Snacks

Softness Snacks is a soft touch healing session where you and I can drop our psychic defences and intellectualizations and take the time to feel what is alive and needing attention in your system. Having been trained in traditional Psychotherapy, nothing tired me out more than trying to go head-to-head (literally!) with people’s most strongly held systems of protecting and defending themselves.

And, while the body has become much more integrated in Therapy spaces, it wasn’t enough for me. In order to achieve healing, a space of coherence must be supplied. As long as the mind is centred and your body or mine is in exile as a functional, living, breathing organism in the room, coherence will be a distant wish. All healing is built on taking the parts of us we have banished and bringing them back into awareness and importance. Your body wants to be used and so does mine.

Each 75-minute session contains 45 minutes of light touch on your back, shoulders or head. This is not a massage but as our skin is our literal boundary between our insides and the world, this light touch does act as a container for what wants to move through you. If energy does not have a container that is both sturdy AND soft, it will stay stuck.

There are always observations shared and we will discuss together the best way for you to bring in the part or parts of you that are dying to come back into your arms.

After the 45 minute touch session is over, we have up to 30 minutes to process and integrate what you noticed and where you can go from there.

Softness snacks is not for reaching any goal posts. In a world that asks us to toughen up and become harder than we really are or ever wanted to be, I invite you in for a tiny snack of softness that we can share together.

Each 75-minute session is $200 and is currently only offered via referrals from clinicians I know.
