Why This Work Is Personal

I became a practitioner in 2004, qualifying in sound healing with the British Academy of Sound Healing. Yet a few years later, in my late thirties, my own nervous system began to unravel.

I developed severe anxiety, frequent panic attacks, claustrophobia, agoraphobia, and derealisation. I felt ashamed and bewildered — particularly because I believed I should know how to deal with this. I had been on a spiritual path for many years and assumed that what was happening meant I had failed in some way.

What I didn’t understand then was that many of the practices I relied on were bypassing what actually needed connection. I encountered a great deal of fear — not only my own, but the fear of others who did not know how to be with what I was experiencing. Much of the help offered to me was focused on getting rid of my symptoms rather than listening to what they were communicating.

Over time, through what became a profound dark night of the soul, I discovered that the panic was not the problem. It was the doorway.

When I stopped trying to eradicate it and instead turned towards it, another part of me emerged — a deeply sensitive, intelligent, and profoundly alive part that I had never known was there. I am deeply grateful to have met her.

Through this process, I learned something essential: not only how healing happens, but how to be with another human being who is suffering. I learned how to stay present where others had needed to turn away. I learned how to be the presence I did not have when I first needed help.

This understanding sits at the heart of my work.

My Training, Lineage, and Way of Working

My training includes Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT/tapping), Faster EFT, Provocative Energy EFT, and Matrix EFT, alongside other body-based approaches that work directly with the nervous system, including Havening.

These tools were powerful and transformative for me. Over time, however, I began to see that some approaches were often taught or applied in ways that aimed to get rid of experience — to fix, override, or move away from what the system was expressing.

My own work evolved in a counter-intuitive direction.

I discovered that when techniques are used with deep, moment-to-moment attunement — turning towards what is resisted rather than away from it — a far more profound and lasting shift can take place. Precision here is not about control, but about listening accurately enough to meet what is actually organising the system.

Alongside this, I have trained extensively in developmental and relational trauma approaches, including NARM-informed work, and have undertaken many years of learning with Thomas Hübl around collective trauma, nervous system regulation, and relational repair.

I also hold a BSc (Hons) in Anthropology, which continues to inform my understanding of human beings as shaped by relationship, culture, history, and lineage. Earlier in my life, I spent ten years as a professional musician in a girl band — an experience that quietly attuned me to rhythm, resonance, emotional presence, and the intelligence of the body long before I had language for it.

An Invitation

If you are exhausted from managing yourself, making sense of everything alone, or trying to fix what feels immovable, you are not broken.

I offer a space where complexity is welcome, where nothing in you is too much, and where your system can begin to reorganise itself in contact with another.

If this resonates, you’re welcome to get in touch.

Lizzie’s qualifications and trainings:

Much of my training has come from my own direct experience of months and years of journeying within the darkness and pain within myself and my years of experience with helping others traverse and alchemise difficult feelings and beliefs.

Some of my education has come from great people around me and before me that have generously parted their wisdom. I don’t think I have enough space here to mention all of these people nor, unfortunately can I remember everyone but some of the highlights are:

Pete Walker and his book ‘Complex PTSD’
N.A.R.M book ‘Healing Developmental Trauma’
Reginald Ray ‘Touching Enlightenment’
Scott Kilioby Enquiries.
The Presence Process by Michael Brown.
The Heart of Trauma by Bonnie Bradenoch.
‘The Art of Recieving and Giving’ by Betty Martin.
‘The Wild Edge of Sorrow’ by Francis Weller.
‘Womb Awakening’ by Seren Bertrand and Azra Bertrand.
Peter A Levine and all his great work.
‘Unlocking the Emotional Brain’ by Bruce Ecker and Robin Ticic.
‘The Transforming Power of Affect’ by Diana Fosher
Bressel Van De Kolk and all his great work.
Anything by Esther Perel.
