Receiving Practice
1:1 sessions for women and LGBTIQA+ people seeking somatic support and experiential practice in touch, boundaries, embodiment and rest.
This work might be for you if you:
Struggle to know what you want
Find it difficult to ask for what you need
Tend to put others first
Feel guilty receiving care or attention
Have trouble setting boundaries or saying no
Long for more nourishing experiences of touch and connection
Want to develop greater confidence, agency, and self-trust
You will be supported to learn or deepen your ability to:
Identify what you truly want and need
Make requests with greater clarity and confidence
Recognise and communicate your boundaries
Navigate agreements and consent with ease
Receive care, touch, and support without feeling responsible for the giver
Build trust in your own experience and desires
This is experiential, touch-based practice in real-time.
The focus is on connecting to what you want, learning to ask for it, and practicing receiving it. No touch happens that you haven’t directly asked for and touch is never required in these sessions. I will support you in deepening your embodiment and taking responsibility for what you want and your limits, so that over time you’re able to ask for, receive and feel the care and nourishment you need, in session and beyond.
My work uses body-focused approaches and is always led by what’s important to you and what you’re wanting to learn or develop. I am guided by the belief that meaningful change happens when you build a relationship with your body, learn to trust your own experience, and remember you have a choice.

What Receiving Practice Is & Isn’t
This is an educational and experiential space for exploring consent, boundaries, requests, receiving, and embodied self-awareness. It is not a massage, bodywork, therapeutic treatment or sexual service. Touch is used as a medium for learning, exploration, and nourishment, always within clear agreements and at a pace that feels right for everyone involved.
Trauma and Suitability
My work is trauma-informed however it does not involve the diagnosis or treatment of trauma or other mental health conditions. My offerings are best suited to people not currently in crisis or experiencing unmanaged mental health challenges, and to people who already have some tools and strategies for managing any history of trauma or related challenges.
