I am offering dance movement therapy services online (Australia wide) or in-person for those in the Great Southern Region of Western Australia, across Albany, Denmark, Mt Barker and Walpole.

 

Services are 1 hour in length and use a multimodal approach. Sessions include a variety of evidence-based methods from dance movement therapy, art therapy and counselling and are tailored to suit your needs and goals. 

 

While my sessions are structured to meet your unique goals, a typical session looks like:

​

• Check-in to become aware of the current state of your mind and body. This may be done verbally or non-verbally through body-based techniques such as a body scan, encouraging tracking of bodily sensations and breath.

• Body-based gentle warm-up to create safety and relaxation. This may include self-expressive and improvisational movements. 

• Using dance/movement, art and counselling techniques to explore themes such as:

  • Attachment styles

  • Discovering unhealthy patterns that may have kept you stuck

  • Emotional regulation 

  • Safety

  • Trauma processing (once a level of safety has been achieved in previous sessions)

  • Post-traumatic growth

• Help you explore and make meaning on the connection between movement and your emotions.

• Reflection either verbally or non-verbally through a creative medium.

 

To see if dance movement therapy is right for you, please book in for an initial consultation.
