One to One Somatic Shamanism Sessions

I travelled the world for over a decade immersing myself in native 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 overtime I explored and studied the more contemporary therapeutic practices of Integral Eye Movement Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Somatic experiencing, Polyvagal theory and Compassionate enquiry. 

After many years of practice and experimentation I have now come to realise the most powerful healing for modern people goes in the opposite direction to the traditional shamanic model. We need to move through the shamanic levels of engagement in reverse. From the body, to the psychological, through to the soul and eventually effect change at the energetic level. In this way the individual experiences all the levels of engagement, and the power dynamic shifts away from the shaman to a healthier person-centred approach.  I call this integration of ancient and psychotherapeutic modalities. I call this powerful integrative therapeutic approach Somatic Shamanism.

“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.” LB

"My sessions with Christine have been mind-blowingly powerful. I have been on a healing journey for many years and the work we have done together so far has proceeded all other modalities I’ve tried. Blending shamanic work with psychological theory is a powerhouse and works wonders. The awareness I now have on my different parts, aspects and traumas within the psyche is incredible and has changed my life. Christine is gentle and nurturing, creating a safe space to explore the traumatic parts of the psyche. She also offers guidance and wisdom for how to integrate the healing shifted in the sessions into everyday reality. Her sessions are grounded and trauma-informed yet work on a shamanic level. This unique blend creates a beautiful balance for deep cellar healing" DB

"Having undertaken a number of different theraputic therapies, both conventional and alternaive to address past traumas, Christine's approach is by far the most powerful and empowering experience that has resulted in deep healing - I can't recommend her highly enough." RM

Please visit the Testimonial page to see what more of my Clients have to say about the benefits of working with me. 

I do not wish cost to be a barrier that stops those who have a genuine desire to embark on their healing journey. 

Having worked with many disadvantaged people over the years I have seen first-hand how the cost for therapeutic servicers are prohibitive to many. As such, I strongly believe that the opportunity to heal should be available to those who seek to do this work. This is why I offer a sliding scale fee and am not bound by standard 1-hour sessions. 

Somatic Shamanism offers a multifaceted and integrative approach to the therapeutic process and I am committed to ensuring that each clients individual needs and process is given the adequate time required. This is why individual sessions with me normally average 1.5 hours and on occasion if necessary they can take longer.

My Somatic Shamanism approach has been tried and tested via zoom sessions with the same level of success as face to face, therefore most of my sessions are carried out remotely.
