Neo Emotional Release, Coaching, & Mentoring

Glasgow-based somatic therapist, coach, & mentor, offering sessions both online and in person for a greater sense of resilience, life fulfilment, & freedom within.

I am a scientist and a holistic practitioner passionate about helping you reconnect with your inner healing intelligence.

I guide people worldwide to release deep-seated emotional blocks, helping them to move from a place of survival to one of freedom, empowerment, & self-trust.

If you want to break free from behavioural or emotional patterns holding you back in life — and unravel the root cause of your physical symptoms — you’re in the right place!

My work is grounded in psychology and guided by felt sense, relational depth, and intuitive wisdom. Through the modalities I work with, you will cultivate a new relationship with your emotions, transform limiting beliefs, and reconnect with the essence of who you’ve always been beneath the noise. This becomes the foundation for more authentic, nourishing, & healthier relationships — with yourself, others, and life.

To my knowledge, I am Scotland’s only Neo Emotional Release Facilitator.

There is a version of you that is Longing for More. What could unfold if you truly listened to that inner calling?

The core principle of my work is to guide you in meeting the old, exiled, and suppressed parts of your subconscious, guiding you to develop a healthy relationship with yourself (e.g., your emotions, the experiences that shaped you, …) and with others.

This is the foundation for a balanced, fulfilling present, shifting the narrative you hold about yourself.

Ways to Work With Me…

  • Emotional Release (Online & In-Person)

    Emotional release sessions offer a safe space to explore and address the root causes of your challenges.

    You’ll move beyond surface awareness to engage with deeper layers of bodily sensations, helping you connect with and integrate your emotions more fully. Through techniques like psychosomatic sensing, breathwork, sound, and visualisation, I guide you into a heightened state of body awareness, where we can address the core sources of physical and emotional discomfort.

What sets my approach apart from others? 

  • A trauma-informed approach recognises the profound impact of past experiences on a person’s well-being, behaviour, and relationships. It prioritises safety, trust, empowerment, and agency.

    Central to this is nervous system literacy—understanding how our bodies respond to stress, trauma, and safety. When we recognise nervous system states and their influence on emotions and actions, we can better regulate ourselves and support others with greater compassion.

  • Traditional methods often keep you anchored in the mind, reliving the ‘story’ of your experiences. My approach enhances traditional methods by focusing on the body’s innate wisdom.

    The body serves as a repository for lived emotions and experiences, often holding onto energies that need release or realignment.

    By tapping into the body’s intelligence, we move beyond the mind’s habitual patterns, accessing its memory and intuitive healing capacity. This process helps you realign with your natural state of balance and wholeness.

  • I combine bottom-up approaches, focusing on the body, nervous system, and automatic behavioural patterns, with top-down methods to reshape conscious beliefs, thought processes, and intentional behaviours.

    Regulating the nervous system brings balance to the mind, while reframing the mind creates a strong foundation for resilience, adaptive behaviours, and inner stability.

  • Coaching provides structure, clear goals, and actionable strategies, while mentoring offers nurturing guidance and wisdom. I bring my expertise in the psychology of behavioural change, years of client experience, and my own personal transformation to support your unique journey.

  • To me, healing is an integrative journey that nurtures transformation across psychological, physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions. This holistic approach ensures that we address all aspects of your being for a truly transformative experience.

This work is NOT for you if…

  • You’re not open to exploring new perspectives or challenging your current beliefs.

  • You find it difficult to take responsibility for your own growth.

  • You’re looking for quick fixes or instant results rather than a committed, gradual process.

  • You’re not ready to face discomfort or step outside of your comfort zone.

  • You prefer a structured, predictable path over one that requires adaptability and personal insight.

  • You’re not interested in self-reflection or examining deeper layers of yourself.

Working through my own life challenges
and trauma have enabled me to help my client’s lives to be more manageable and enjoyable.

Having faced and overcome deep emotional blocks, self-doubt, and the challenges of reconnecting with my authentic self, I understand the courage it takes to embark on this journey. I’ve walked the path myself, and my personal and professional experiences equipped me to guide you from a place of experience, with genuine empathy, proven tools, and a clear roadmap to help you create the transformation you seek.

  • This work is for you if...

    • You are ready to fully embrace your emotions and understand their importance in your life.

    • You are curious about what limits you in being and living your most authentic life.

    • You have the courage to explore beyond your comfort zone and are ready to face the truth.

    • You are prepared to confront your shadow.

    • You take responsibility for your healing journey and are ready for lifestyle changes.

    • You understand that shadow work is challenging and requires you choosing yourself everyday.

    • You are honest with yourself about struggles, failures, and resistances—I'm here for it all.

    • You are enthusiastically saying YES to a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

  • Each client achieves different outcomes depending on the goals we have set together. Ultimately, this work paves the way for greater vitality, emotional resilience, and freedom from burdens and limitations that hold you back in life.

  • No prior experience is necessary. Whether you’re new to this work or have prior experience with somatic therapies, I’ll meet you where you are and tailor the programme to your unique needs.

  • Coaching focuses on helping you unlock your potential by guiding you to find your own solutions, set goals, and take actionable steps toward personal or professional growth. It is typically structured, goal-oriented, and centred on your specific challenges or aspirations.

    Mentoring, on the other hand, involves sharing knowledge, experience, and insights to provide guidance and support. A mentor often acts as a trusted advisor, offering advice and encouragement based on their own expertise and experiences.

    In my practice, I combine elements of both coaching and mentoring to provide a tailored approach that meets your unique needs.

    Throughout history, even the greatest kings relied on trusted female mentors—women who offered their wisdom, insight, and a unique perspective on matters of the heart, strategy, and human connection.

    Everyone needs a mentor—I have one myself, and it has been transformative. This could be you too! Having someone to guide and support you can make all the difference in your journey.
