Somatic Shamanism is the power of ancient Shamanic, Taoist and Yoga practice integrated with contemporary psychotherapeutic modalities; Integral Eye Movement and Internal Family Systems, Somatic experiencing, Polyvagal theory and Compassionate enquiry.  

Through this integrative approach, I guide a sacred process for individuals and groups which facilitates the opportunity for deep healing to occur at an emotional, mental and spiritual level.

The Model

My therapeutic work draws on two deep wells of knowledge and brings them together.

The first is ancient — shamanic practice, Taoist philosophy, and yoga - traditions that have refined our understanding of human healing over thousands of years.

The second is modern therapy that suggests our consciousness is broken down into several parts, or personalities. And that the parts each have distinct characteristics.

Ancestral healing sits at the centre of this synthesis, and it's the piece most conventional psychotherapy overlooks: that much of what we carry didn't start with us.

What makes this work distinct is how I use altered states of consciousness as a precision tool.

Most therapeutic conversation works at the level of the story: the labels people carry, the narratives they repeat about themselves, the projections others have placed on them.

My work goes underneath them, to locate exactly what needs to heal, my experience demonstrates that deep down in the psyche and the body there is a living wisdom that knows exactly what to do, and so it is to this place that I can take clients.

I believe every person carries a divine spark — a wise, connected aspect of themselves that holds knowledge about what their own system needs in order to heal.

This is the principle behind every session. My role isn't to heal people. It's to show them the way to that place in themselves — the actual healing, and the understanding that comes with it, is something we do together, and the deepest part of it comes from them, not me.

In practice, this means people get to the heart of what needs attention with unusual speed — just a few sessions, where other approaches might take months or years to locate the same starting point.

I spent many years immersing myself in cultures across Asia, Australia, North America and Europe, where I studied the ancient practices of Shamanism, Taoism and Yoga. This has given me an enormous appreciation and respect for the power of this ancient wisdom and played a major part in my own healing journey. I have also been a youth and community worker with vulnerable children in London and over time I explored and studied the more contemporary therapeutic practices of Integral Eye Movement and Internal Family Systems, Somatic experiencing, Polyvagal theory and Compassionate enquiry. 

“Working with Christine has been unlike any other therapy I’ve done in the past, it goes much deeper and much further, it’s also, I have found, a lot quicker as the work goes straight to the emotional, sometimes physical, sometimes soul-based core of the issue.” Client
