Somatic Shamanism is a holistic healing approach that works with the whole person – mind, body, soul and spirit. It brings together inner parts work, somatic awareness and shamanic healing to create lasting change, reaching the places that talking alone often doesn’t reach. Through gentle, guided sessions I help you connect with your body’s wisdom, get to know the parts of yourself that drive your emotional patterns, and where you’re open to it, draw on support from the shamanic realms.

Healing Deep Patterns to Achieve Your Full Potential
Somatic Shamanism offers a gentle, powerful path to transform the emotional patterns and behaviours that keep repeating, no matter how much you’ve tried to change them.
“Our bodies contain our histories – every chapter, line and verse of every event and relationship in our lives.”
— Caroline Myss
You Know There’s Deeper Healing Waiting for You
Perhaps you’ve spent years in talk therapy and understand your patterns intellectually, but they still show up in your body, your relationships, your daily life.
Or maybe you’ve never been drawn to traditional therapy – you sense you need something that works with your body and spirit, not just your mind.
You might find yourself:
- Repeating emotional reactions you can’t seem to shift through understanding alone
- Feeling anxiety, depression, or “not good enough” for reasons you can’t quite name
- Carrying physical symptoms that feel connected to emotional patterns
- Knowing there’s something deeper calling to be healed
You’re not broken. You’re ready for healing that honours all of you – body, mind, soul and spirit.
What is Somatic Shamanism?
Somatic Shamanism brings together somatic awareness, inner parts work and shamanic healing into one integrated approach, working with the whole person rather than just the thinking mind.
In our sessions you’ll work directly with:
The physical sensations in your body that hold old stress and trauma responses
The different parts of yourself, like the inner critic, the people pleaser, the angry/anxious/avoidant parts, that show up in patterns you want to change
The shamanic realms, where spirit helpers in the form of plants, trees, stones, animals and ancestors can bring support and deeper healing
Sessions are 1.5 hours, conducted online, so you can relax into the work from the comfort and safety of your own home – many clients even choose to have their sessions from bed.

What Clients Experience
“Somatic therapy with Emma is a truly transformational experience. With her gentle guidance and supportive presence I have been able to explore the different parts of me that challenge or control me, holding them gently, honouring them for their protection, but giving them permission to rest.
Sometimes the sessions are fast paced, at other times slow and challenging, but I have learned to relax into each one being just what I need at that moment.
It feels like I am piece by piece putting myself back together, fixing those broken parts together with gold like human kintsugi, the finished self being stronger and more beautiful for the healing.
Emma is an excellent guide on this adventure.”
This Work Is for You If:
- You’re ready to commit to long-term healing, not quick fixes
- You’re willing to feel uncomfortable as part of the process
- You’re open to working with your body and feelings, not just your mind
- You sense there’s something deeper than what traditional therapy has reached
How We Work Together
I recommend fortnightly sessions to give you time to integrate between our meetings. For those with financial constraints, we can work with a less frequent rhythm – perhaps three-weekly or monthly – to make the work more sustainable for you.
Investment: Sessions are 1.5 hours (significantly longer than standard therapy sessions) and conducted online via Zoom.
Standard rate: £70
I hold 2-3 spaces at reduced rates (£30-£50) for those with genuine financial need. If you require a reduced rate, please mention this when you book your free consultation so we can discuss what’s possible.
Payment is due on the day of each session, with 48 hours notice required for cancellations.

About Emma
I understand what it’s like when familiar patterns keep showing up in your life, no matter how much you’ve tried to change them. The anxiety that won’t shift. The relationship dynamics that repeat. The sense of not being enough. The physical tension that lives in your body.
My own journey of healing has taken me through many pathways – seven years of Jungian psychotherapy, training at a Steiner/Waldorf school where I discovered my gift for supporting families with young children, exploring sound healing through gong bath training, and eventually finding Somatic Shamanism with Christine Holt.
I trained with Christine Holt in Somatic Shamanism, which integrates somatic exploration, parts work, and shamanic practice. After completing the training, Christine affirmed that this path is aligned with my deeper purpose.
After years of different healing modalities, I finally found the approach that brought together the body and the spirit – the missing pieces in my own healing. Now I hold space for others on their journey home to themselves.
