One-to-one somatic healing gently held in the arms of Rose

 

 I am offering one-to-one sessions held in what I call The Rose Mother - a slow, attuned, touch-based space supporting early attachment and preverbal trauma. This work invites the body to receive what may have been missing early in life.

 

This mothering is archetypal - a regulating, protective, and nourishing divine feminine presence the body can receive. Rose is present as a sacred-scented ally, carrying the quality of love without demand, supporting the body to feel safety, warmth, and gentle nurturing.

​

This work supports the gentle repair of early ruptures to our birthright of attunement - with our mother or primary caregiver, with Mother Earth, and with the wider field of The Great Mother that holds us. Through therapeutic touch and relationship with Rose, this work invites a remembering of belonging, and a deeper relationship with spirit, nature, and the body’s own innate wisdom. Recognising that we are never alone, our attachment is formed within a much larger community - with village, with the more-than-human, with our ancestors and with the Divine. 

​

Water - the milk of Mother Earth, source and sustainer of life, will be called into our space, to help heal and grow our relationship with our elemental family.

 

The work weaves Insight Herbalism, Neuro-Affective Touch®, Somatic Experiencing®, and is gently supported by the element of Water, inviting softness, flow, and the nervous system’s natural capacity to settle and receive.

​

Preverbal trauma can include ruptures in connection in conception, pregnancy, birth and early years of life, as well as transgenerational and ancestral trauma. These can stay hidden in our bodies, waiting for the welcome and attunement that was not available at the time. 

​

This work supports:

• Early attachment and developmental trauma

• Mother wounds, preverbal emotional neglect and oppressing parenting

• Difficulty receiving care, love, or support

• Chronic patterns of collapse, self-protection, or longing

• A desire to reconnect with softness, trust, and inner safety​

​​

Sessions are slow, nervous-system led, and non-invasive. There is only listening, presence, and gentle repair. Touch may include supportive contact such as hands on the back, shoulders, arms, or other areas agreed together. Your yes, no, pause, or change your mind at any time, is welcome. The intention of touch in this work is nervous-system support and relational repair — never pushing through protective responses.
