Healing, Connection & Transformation
At Plein Air Therapies, I provide an integrative approach to mental health that combines mindfulness, neurophysiology, somatic awareness, and nature connection within a secure, nurturing environment. My practice is informed by current scientific research and clinical evidence, ensuring that each modality honors both traditional wisdom and modern findings.
A Supportive Therapeutic Environment
Your well-being is paramount. Together, we work to alleviate emotional burdens, cultivate resilience, and harmonize the connection between mind and body. Research in neurobiology and psychotherapy highlights the importance of a safe and supportive setting in facilitating neural plasticity and emotional regulation.
Clinical Hypnotherapy: Unlocking Your Mind’s Potential
Clinical hypnotherapy bridges the gap between the conscious and subconscious mind. Neuro-imaging studies reveal distinct shifts in brain activity during hypnotic states, supporting its use for conditions such as anxiety, chronic pain, and stress-related disorders. Through guided deep relaxation, I assist you in overcoming obstacles and accessing inner resources for personal growth and transformation.
Somatic Experiencing: Reconnecting with the Body
Somatic Experiencing is a body-centered modality grounded in an understanding of the autonomic nervous system and informed by polyvagal theory. Scientific research underscores the importance of physical sensations in processing and releasing trauma. By attuning to your body’s signals, this approach promotes self-regulation and fosters a deeper integration of mind and body, thereby restoring a profound sense of safety and equilibrium.
Eco-Psychotherapy: Healing Through Nature
Eco-Psychotherapy integrates insights from environmental psychology and biophilia research, which demonstrate that interaction with nature can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and improve mood. Offered from August to May, this approach facilitates reconnection with the natural environment through practices such as vision walks, forest bathing, bird watching, nature-based meditation, nervous system regulation, soul-craft practices, nature sit-spot exercises, and plant spirit communication. Engagement with nature serves as a powerful catalyst for healing and sustaining a deep sense of connection.
Reiki Healing: Restoring Balance
Reiki healing is a complementary therapy that promotes relaxation, enhances energy flow, and supports overall emotional well-being. Whether conducted in-person or remotely, each session includes a dedicated period for integration and reflection to ensure a smooth transition back to everyday life.
Mindfulness Based Stillness Meditation: Cultivating Inner Calm
Mindfulness Based Stillness Meditation is supported by extensive research in cognitive neuroscience and psychology. Studies consistently show that mindfulness practices can enhance brain function, reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, and improve emotional regulation. As a qualified and registered teacher with Meditation Australia, I guide you in techniques that foster deep stillness, clarity, and presence—empowering you to manage stress and promote lasting emotional well-being.
You Are Supported and Valued
Your healing journey is unique. I am dedicated to guiding you with empathy, expertise, and a commitment to the highest standards of care, rooted in both scientific evidence and traditional practice.
