Hi, I am Anita,

I am a fully registered Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist whose practice specialises in working with babies, children, teens and adults. I provide treatment for a wide range of conditions such as perinatal work for Mummies and babies, unprocessed trauma, stress and chronic pain.

My work practice prioritises establishing a feeling of safety and trust in the client relationship through a heart-centred presence and deep whole-body listening. I have a natural ability to help my clients become more aware of their embodied presence, as well as to develop health, balance, and compassion from within.

After an extensive career working in Communication Arts, I felt naturally drawn to retrain as a Craniosacral therapist after experiencing the transformative and lasting benefits for myself. I am compelled by the impact of body-led work and understanding how narratives can be interwoven deep within the fabric of our emotional, physical and spiritual bodies. These patterns can interplay as the body expresses itself in its own unique way. In my practice, I find the discovery and deep body work with clients resonates perfectly with my creative, curious nature and highly attuned skill set as an embodiment therapist. I bring a confidential, safe holding presence, with mindful touch, to the fore so that you are able to realise your own innate connection to the wisdom and health within your intelligent body.

My aim is to empower my clients to discover deeper levels of integration in the body while simultaneously cultivating greater self-awareness, self-love, and self-compassion. I am deeply attuned to the many challenges we all face in the modern world. From childhood experiences of unprocessed trauma, a desire to set healthy boundaries, to realise one’s own strength fully, to starting whole new life chapters resounding with fulfilment and joy, I am able to hold a safe and confidential space of support for you. My practice is non-judgemental, with my natural ability of deep listening and skilful touch, along with a practical embodiment skills to empower my clients to become more balanced, grounded, safe and resourced in their bodies, as well as to reach the highest potential and expression of health and wholeness.

I have completed accredited study with the acclaimed Karuna Institute in Devon, including a two-year residential training with the world pioneer of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, Franklin Sills, and further training in the Relational Mindfulness Diploma with Maura Sills, Director and Co-Founder of The Karuna Institute. I’ve also undertaken postgraduate training with ‘Mother and baby work’ at the CTET in London. I am deeply curious to learn and discover more in this specialised embodiment field - and in awe of the mysteries of the dynamic human body and its innate potential and healing abilities.

I am a fully registered Craniosacral Therapist with the Craniosacral Therapy Association (CSTA) in the UK, and carry professional insurance and an enhanced DBS to work specifically with children.
