One to One

Through somatic awareness, I help you feel into the poetry of being alive. To move the flow of your precious life force with intention and integrity.

This is for you if you:

  • Are navigating transitions, ways of being, or life terrains that were never modelled to you
  • Want more ease and intimacy in your closest relationships, so connection meets your need for depth, authenticity or slowness
  • Want to feel more rooted belonging within the ecology where you live, or spiritually to significant places within your story or heritage
  • Sense that beings of all kinds are calling your attention in ways that feel new, perhaps both welcome and unsettling, and want a place that meets those experiences with love and curiosity not pathology
  • Know it's time to tend to your relationship with rage, grief, spirit, rest, or play

Our Time Together

Each session is a portal where you can bring all that's here.

There's space for feeling, for visioning, for creativity, for quiet, for not knowing.  

My intuitive multi-modal approach welcomes all the ways wisdom and energy can move through your body - as sensation, thoughts, emotions, gesture, sound, breath, tension, words, imagination, drawing, dreams, voices, symbols, sensory awareness. We'll follow your curiosity.

Alongside guided somatic practice, we might also spend time with ritual, music, poetry, intuitive movement, tarot dance, strategy, astrology, storytelling, or anything else you'd like to welcome in. You might want to bring in a specific place or plant or being or word or element.

Each session is unique. Everything is an invitation.

"dia's approach is person centred, direct, practical and full of care. They allow you to show up as who you are in the moment with not only zero judgement, but with deep acceptance of who you are and what you are bringing. I am letting myself fall back into life more, softening into the challenges and feeling out that which I have avoided before."

How I'll meet you

With warmth at the centre

Loving presence is the foundation. I bring the wholeness of my lived experience, learnings, heritage & embodiment practice. I'll steward the wisdom that emerges from your body, my body, the shared portal of our time together, and the collective soil we're tending outside of this space.

This is sacred time where you get to be in feeling and healing with someone who's as curious, generous and committed as you are.

I'll help you to:

  • Understand the somatic inheritance you currently embody: your conditioned tendencies, default responses, the places you get stuck
  • Hold with love that intricate exhausting dance of code-switching, masking, and all the ways you've learned to hide in plain sight, get the fuck out of there, placate or fight
  • Explore intentional shapeshifting. Not always calm, not always steady, not always regulated, but able to flow between shapes and states as needed
  • Inhabit your form each moment as an ecological being in constant process


This is a place for you to experience your whole embodied being as a trustworthy landscape where the mystical, the poetic, the cosmic, the ancestral live & breathe. 

No striving, nothing to figure out, just the truth of what's here in the micro and the macro.

I have the honour of being alongside you in this emergent process of spirals, unfurls & magic, and celebrating how somatic awareness enriches your offerings towards social justice, generational healing, and collective transformation. The trembly, the steady, what's unknown and beyond.

I'll hold it with you.

How this work ripples out beyond sessions

We'll weave somatic practice & ritual into your everyday life. Not as something to perfect or that you only have fleeting access to, but as a way of being that feels well-grooved enough to be accessible to you through chill days and intense stress.

You'll become more able to discern. Attuned to when you need help, when you need to dance, when you need to scream, when you need to commune with the trees. Fluidity and integrity. Strength and softness. Steady ground and stardust.

You'll begin to alchemise the somatic inheritance you received, and bring more choice, play and possibility into this moment. 

You might find that you feel:

  • more able to respond instead of react, even in familiar challenging situations
  • more intentional about the commitments you say yes to, and how you show up for them
  • in a softer relationship with time, and can dwell longer in experiences of awe, beauty and spaciousness
  • more able to feel music or move with joy, more able to flow with change, more open in collaboration
  • less jolted around by outward storms, more supported, centered and able to extend to others
