About Hannah
As a society, we have largely become disconnected from our bodies and this affects both physical and emotional health. My wish is to bring gentle awareness back to the body in a safe therapeutic space. When we learn how to tune into our bodies, we are provided with a wealth of information and knowledge which is empowering and facilitates self- growth and change. Living life with more ease, peace, alignment and balance is fundamental to our health and happiness.
​
My background is in community and hospital social work, working with adults and older adults with a range of physical and mental health needs and also adults with learning and developmental needs. I bring this experience into my therapeutic work and remain passionate about working with people from all walks of life and across the life span.
​
I found Cranio-Sacral therapy in 2000 following a car accident. I remember being intrigued by the simplicity of the therapists touch and yet it’s incredible healing ability to not only resolve my physical injuries but release the shock of the accident I hadn’t realised my body was holding onto. To release it felt strange yet incredible. Intrigued by this curious and magical therapy and experiencing positive physical and emotional benefits, I chose to continue to work through more layers and imprints of life.
I instinctively returned to this therapy once again following some significant life events, helping me to process some really difficult experiences. It was from here that I knew I wanted to train as a therapist at the College of Cranio-Sacral Therapy in London with the esteemed Thomas Atlee.

I am a member of the Cranio-Sacral Therapy Association (CSTA) and I am committed to ongoing professional development and supervision.
