Hello and Welcome!
I’m Sam, an acupuncturist, breathwork facilitator, parts-led coach and workshop creator. I’m also a proud mother to a courageous and wise young man, and the owner of an affectionate, lively rescue terrier.
My Professional Journey
Since 2011, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people through a wide range of physical and emotional challenges. I’ve spent tens of thousands of hours my clinic listening, observing, studying and treating many different symptoms and conditions.
Alongside my clinical work, I’ve continued to deepen my understanding of the body through studies and courses in Chinese medicine, biokinesiology, physiology of the spirit, infertility, subconscious coaching, nutrition and pain management, to name a few.
This combination of training and hands-on experience has shaped how I work today. It has taught me to look beyond the symptoms, explore the root cause and understand how our physical health, emotional experiences and environment can all affect the body.
My Personal Healing Journey
Alongside my professional work, I’ve had my own challenges to navigate. My healing has involved turning inward and exploring the experiences, patterns and conditioning that have shaped me.
Over the years, I’ve explored plant medicine, somatic breathwork, acupuncture, herbal medicine, meditation, retreats, energy work and deep subconscious work. I’ve also found a huge amount of healing and grounding through hiking, running and being in nature.
Doing my own healing work has taught me just as much as the many years I’ve spent training and studying. I know what it is like to face difficult challenges, meet resistance, uncover things you thought you had dealt with and recognise how much the past can still affect the present.
My journey continues, and so does my learning.
My Approach
My work spans acupuncture, active somatic breathwork and parts-led coaching. They are separate ways of working with me, but each is grounded in looking at the whole person rather than one symptom, feeling or experience in isolation.
I meet you where you are and work with your individual needs and capacity. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. The work is always individual to you.
The Body’s Wisdom
Our bodies are always speaking to us. The key is learning how to listen. Through awareness and compassion we can unlock the wisdom the body holds.
