About Jemma
I believe spiritual-somatic therapy and dream work is largely about creating a safe connection to our body, the doorway into the depths of ourselves and the Universe. Once connection and safety is found, we can gently enter within the personal and cosmological labyrinth of our psyche and traverse its experiences with reverence and curiosity for what we are, what may be getting in our way, and what we may be.
As a Coach I help you to find clarity on your purpose and vision. I then teach you the meta skills to create this vision and take it into practice in every day life. You develop the ability to move fluidly between various thoughts, feelings and behaviours as they arise. Staying true to your course to create your aligned goals and vision of success.
This combination brings unconscious feelings to consciousness where we can then manifest through our sleeping dreams, and our waking dreams a way of living that is in practice awe inspiring, mystical, effective, true to our nature, sustainable, satisfying and of service.
We are living in a time of great change, disconnection from self, nature and others, and with it increasing demands on us to adapt.
Which stirs in many of us an even stronger need and desire for a world which embraces our feelings, spirit, creativity, dreaming and intuition.
We must work with our body, soul, dreams, feelings, nervous system and life experiences to create an inner relationship of safety and understanding.
I am committed to best meeting my clients individual needs with consideration and compassion for their unique style, rhythm, pace and experiences.
