Testimonials

  • Honestly, thank you so much! I don't think I can ever express how thankful I am to you. This has been one of the hardest times of my life, and I'm so glad I found you for all the guidance you've given me. There was a point I really didn't think I could get past it all. There's so many things you've coached me on that I use day-to-day. I just have so much gratitude for your work and time.'

  • You provide warmth, empathy, kindness, respect and a safe space. The work would not be possible for me without these essential qualities. Your knowledge and how you share is enriching and fascinating. The work together has really helped to increase my confidence, and reduce my stress, day to day. It’s supported my own personal development, and professional development as a psychotherapist. One of the things I’ve found most helpful is the way it’s actually dissipated pain. I’ve learned how to identify the physical pain present, and explore it’s association to a lived experience, whether buried from an event in the past, or the here and now.Through this practice, my pain has reduced and I’m less fearful of pain.

  • Charlotte’s work in all its forms has been transforming to my physical and emotional well-being over the past 6 months. After suffering 30+ years with debilitating migraine and muscle spasms working with Charlotte with the practice of Somatic Healing has been a game changer.

  • I chose to work with Charlotte specifically because of her training in Somatic Experiencing. Having a history of Chronic Fatigue I knew that I wanted to work with someone who was trauma trained with the right nervous system toolbox. Charlotte did not disappoint! After 1 session with her my whole body felt renewed and recharged. She is a highly-skilled bodyworker with whom I feel incredibly safe, seen and supported. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who is willing to put their trust in her very capable hands.

  • I think an important note is that I didn’t know if I needed Somatic Experiencing, I didn’t feel I had any significant trauma, I’d had a relatively privileged life, brought up in a lovely area by both parents who were still happily married. And so why did I feel detached? Through the work, I realise now that I had adapted to cope in my life, but I was exhausted. I couldn’t keep it up anymore. I had no inner confidence and ultimately I felt like I was lonely and disconnected . Through SE, I’ve learnt to understand why I created a safe distance around myself. Blocking potential ‘danger’, but also blocking any real connection. SE is subtle but deep and so powerful. It was going beyond my conscious mind and into my body, and energy, which helped me move past where my mind was keeping me stuck. From the first session I began to release stress from my nervous system which I had not been aware of with simple ways of placing attention and exercises which created big releases. It is a gentle process and simple but the effects are fast. Very quickly I felt noticeably better - friends started to say I look really well, for no other reason than this work. Only I knew how much better I felt - a calming of my internal world that enabled me to get out of my way and step into my life. It’s like a homecoming, a feeling that is familiar, but a place I haven’t visited in a very long time. Nature now can make me emotional with its beauty. I look at trees with such awe. I have never felt such connection. I am eternally grateful for Charlotte and her capacity for helping her clients in this work. I recommend Charlotte to everyone, if you think you need it or you don’t. I think this work is the best inheritance we can give our children.

  • I have always remembered you and the work we did together when I was at university, in my early 20s. You were the first person to help me understand that healing could happen on an embodied level, beyond intellectualising.

  • Charlotte has a wealth of knowledge in somatic healing, which is holistic approach to healing that recognises the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit. Her gentle touch and intuitive approach helped me to relax and release tension that I didn't even realise I was holding. She created a safe, calming space that was restorative and healing.

  • You really helped me to make contact with my body, after being afraid to do that for so long. You also helped me to understand the importance of working with my body, of coming into it and exploring it, and listening to it, for my healing. You showed me how much was/is going on in there, sensations and experiences that I had drowned out because they were too overwhelming and I didn’t have the capacity to hold them. Now, I feel that my path has changed from being ‘mind’ orientated to being very embodied and I am feeling more hopeful about my healing journey than I ever have before, although it is still hard sometimes. I have made some big life changes (ended my relationship, changed my career path) and I believe that these very difficult decisions could be taken because I was listening to my body on a deeper level, in order to figure out what is right for me. And this all started when I came to you for the first time because ‘my shoulders hurt’ and had the strong intuition to return. I am so grateful.
