Somatic Skills for Sustainable Work

A body-based approach to navigating stress, change, and connection at work.

Some workplaces foster healthy culture and balance, but many ask more of us than we realise. Long hours, constant communication, remote, isolated environments, and shifting expectations can quietly drain our energy and sense of connection. It’s easy to slip into “survival mode” , always doing, performing, and pushing through, even when the body is asking for pause, breath, and regulation.

With over 12 years’ experience in talent acquisition and people development, and now as a Trauma-Informed Somatic Therapist, I understand both the external pressures of work and the internal patterns they can activate: self-doubt, imposter feelings, exhaustion, or disconnection. My work bridges these two worlds to support people in navigating the modern workplace with more clarity, steadiness, and embodied resilience.

When we learn to listen to the body, we create room for clarity, creativity, and genuine resilience.

These sessions offer a grounded, human, and evidence-informed approach to wellbeing at work, one that values nervous system health as much as performance.

Through workshops, group sessions, and 1:1 support, I offer practical, somatic tools to help individuals and teams reconnect with their bodies, regulate stress, and restore clarity and focus.
