I use an integrated approach in my client work as I believe there is no one 'fix' for any individual. I also believe we all have the capacity to create change and personal growth within our own selves and in doing so, can find more happiness, belonging and self-fulfilment. We all move through life the best we can, with the tools we are provided with along the way. Each of our individual journeys are impacted by nature, nurture, environment and relationships. Whatever your journey is, I aim to create a safe and supportive space where you can feel at ease to work through whatever you need to, at your own pace and in a way that works best for you. There is freedom waiting for you, on the breezes of the sky and you ask "But what if I fall?" Oh but my darling, what if you fly? - Erin Hanson

If you’ve noticed time running out to order a physical gift for a loved one this Christmas, I’m offering a simple, meaningful alternative, available Now.

Digital BodyMind Reset™ gift vouchers will be available right up until Christmas Eve, sent as a PDF that you can forward on Christmas morning, or print to put in a card.

It’s not another ‘thing’ for someone who doesn’t need more things. It’s space to breathe, reset, and reconnect (something many of us could use at this time of year).

Vouchers can be made out to any value, or used for a single 1-to-1 session, even a place at the upcoming public group sessions, or something more bespoke.

Just message me to arrange one - no postage stress.

Couldn't recommend Catherine highly enough and this is an incredible place, right on the doorstep ❤️

Hello everyone, Catherine here. It’s been a little while, and I’m delighted to share some updates. 🌱🌀

For anyone new to this space: I’m a mental health occupational therapist, yoga teacher, psychology graduate, eco-therapist, nervous-system nerd and long-time advocate for the mind-body connection. My work sits slightly outside the mainstream for a registered health professional, weaving modern science with ancient wisdom, always shaped by the person in front of me.

I’ve been quieter online as we’ve been pouring our energy into creating something truly special, our new forest yurt. This beautiful, intentionally designed place is now the home of both Evolve Occupational Therapy CIC and The Well (.well.yurt), our boutique woodland yoga studio.

The Well was created to offer nourishing yoga and opportunities for connection, to self, community and nature, in a space that already holds deep calm. Though it runs as its own arm of the social enterprise, it also supports the therapeutic work of Evolve OT. Two branches of the same tree: one dedicated to community wellbeing through yoga, somatics and connection; the other offering focused 1:1 support.

From this space, I now offer my one-to-one sessions (unless a home visit is requested), drawing on a blend of evidence-based approaches. Each session is shaped by what matters most to the person I’m supporting, their goals, interests, strengths and values. Lately I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals experiencing anxiety, low mood, chronic fatigue, trauma, chronic pain, burnout, overwhelm and disrupted sleep.

We’ve also been busy delivering our Connected Health programmes in partnership with CBT therapist Gillian Hughes. These mind-body group programmes have been years in the making and have been run for GP practices and school staff, with wonderful feedback from participants.

A small note: my 1:1 caseload is currently full, but there will be one opening in March. Please reach out if you feel this work may support you.

Thank you for your patience during this season of building and growing. More updates to come.
With great warmth and gratitude,
Catherine 🌱🫶🌀

Personal growth is an incredible part of our human journey. If we are lucky enough we get to engage and be fully present in this process, equally it can sneak up on us at times and we can spot growth by surprise. Some of those around us grow along with us, some get left behind or cannot see or accept our growth. We are designed for growth and to move with our bodies and minds. Embrace it and accept not everyone will get it ❤️
