I support people to process experiences, feel and express emotions, and navigate life and relationships with more truth, love and aliveness.

“I’m so grateful for your help in transforming pain into peace and understanding. Thanks for being there with me in a non judgemental way. It meant more than I can express in words.” – Client, 2025

The heart of this work is radical acceptance. I’ll support you to connect with yourself more deeply, to notice and be with what’s under the surface layer. Together we create conditions for any parts of us to be seen and felt, to share their experiences and fears, to express what they have been holding alone for so long. As these parts release their burdens, we become more connected to ourselves, and it is easier to see new ways forward.

I will encourage you to notice feelings, body sensations, gestures, images and movements, alongside your thoughts and memories which all hold wisdom. As limiting beliefs and unconscious patterns unravel, more understanding and new possibilities arise.

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” – Rumi

My approach is based on Somatics, IFS, Emotional Release and NVC. And beyond any technique or framework, I trust our inner guidance. Life will show us what is needed, if we can allow it.

There might be an area of your life where you are feeling stuck, where old strategies aren’t working for you any more. You might want support to process experiences, navigate relationships or to prepare for a difficult conversation. Or you might be ready to know yourself more deeply, to feel and express parts of yourself that have been locked away, and to let life move!

Wherever the starting point, we will make space for different parts of us to show up and express themselves. By honouring and respecting the survival strategies we picked up to cope with painful experiences, trust grows, and parts naturally show us what they are trying to do for us, what they fear, and what they need. Parts of us that have been carrying so much alone can finally put down their burdens and open up to different strategies.

Throughout this journey we hold awareness that our cultures, systems, and social location shape us – it is both a personal journey, and a collective one.

“In my one to one work with Viv, she consistently and gently guided me to greater clarity, enabling me to connect to my body. At the same time, she is able to hold the complex political realities which we all live in but never loses sight of the love inside. I really feel her care and wisdom and it enables me to be a better version of myself. I always feel better after our sessions.” Client, 2026

I know from within myself how much hurt and loneliness we can carry, and the so many good reasons why not to go there and feel those painful places fully. I have tried all the ways around it – tried to ignore and ‘crack on’, tried to persuade my mind to change, tried to coach and manage myself to be a certain way. Of course we try to find strategies to survive and feel better when painful things happen, it isn’t easy to feel and see some of what happens to us. And of course those difficult things keep coming back, because they want to be met with love, to have chance to express themselves fully, to be heard and felt, and to heal.

For me, integrating knowledge from IFS/parts work and learning to follow the wisdom of my soma, I finally found a way to be with, trust and follow my own inner wisdom. I have more sense of trust in myself, more trust that I can be with whatever comes up, and more trust in life. That changes everything!
