Becoming
1-1 Somatic & Embodiment Coaching — Falmouth, Cornwall (In Person & Online)
Our hearts and bodies often require tending over time. Precious and vulnerable parts of us need to know that we are willing to meet them with steadiness and unpressured, compassionate attention.
Becoming offers you the opportunity to experience continued somatic work and embodiment coaching, with every session planned bespoke to the individual.
Together, we move slowly and deeply into your own unfolding. This is a gradual metamorphosis guided session by session, layer by layer.
I approach our sessions with a quality of deep listening and attention, working with you to build trust and at the pace needed to create safety and integration. Your yes and your no stay explicit throughout: session to session, we adjust as we go.
In Becoming, We Might…
Develop and deepen an energy practice through embodied tutelage
Explore and expand your relationship with pleasure, the erotic and your own desire
Work somatically with the stories your body is holding, through IFS, touch and movement
Build a personal magical practice rooted in your own body and experience
Integrate bodywork skills into your own self-practice and intimate relationships
Trauma-Informed
Becoming is made for gradual change over time. That means:
Steadiness and unpressured attention, session after session
Your voice (especially your yes and your no) is centred every time, not just at the start
Trust is built gradually, at whatever pace creates real safety
Deep listening. Together we notice what is changing for you over weeks and months.
Pleasure-Centred
Over weeks and months, not just one session, I create space for you to properly explore your relationship with pleasure, the erotic and your own desire.
This happens at a pace that works for you without pressure to get there in a single afternoon.
That might mean examining where shame has limited you, learning to say yes to your own desire, or building a felt sense over time that pleasure is your birth-right rather than something you have to earn.
How Touch Works Here
How much touch is part of our work together depends entirely on you. Somatic IFS can include hands-on massage, to help you connect with and soothe different parts of yourself.
I will also guide you through self-touch practices, caring for parts of your body that have been judged, shamed or hated, by yourself or by others.
Some people find touch hard to receive whereas others are craving the caring touch they haven't found elsewhere.
Before any practitioner touch, we consider your touch history together, and for some clients, we build a ‘touch menu’: a clear, collaborative map of what is welcome and what is not.
Modalities & Wisdom
I believe that ongoing work like this needs range as well as depth. I draw on various different modalities from Somatic Internal Family Systems to Psychosynthesis to Neuro-Affective Touch. Whatever you bring from session to session has somewhere to land.
How Sessions Work
Sessions typically run weekly or fortnightly.
As Becoming grows, I will be introducing session packages. For now you and I decide what works in terms of session frequency as we go.
Becoming is offered on a sliding scale of £50/£70/£90 per hour, and is available in person at Heal, Falmouth (Cornwall), and also available virtually.
I offer a free 45 minute exploration call to see if this offering is a fit for you and to understand what you are needing right now.
