Private Mentorship

Embodied Life & Business

Doing Life & Business the nervous system way

This 6-month mentorship program is something I wished I have had myself.

Over the years I have reached out for support from therapists, business and life coaches. I tried solution focused methods, talk therapy and also coaching and mentorships that used spiritual methods, law of attraction, manifestation and mindset approaches. None of it worked for me and when it did work, it would’t last long and I was soon back into my unhelpful loops.

Then I would return looking for a new method, a new coach or mentor to start over. This lasted decades. It was exhausting, disheartening and frustrating, to say the least.

I would think : “If I just found the right method things would be ok."

Or worse, “Something is seriously wrong with me.” “Things are never going to change for me.”

These fears were often confirmed by other people’s positive results I would see on social media.

I even had to close my business, for a couple of years, at one point, because of burnout and other chronic health issues. I felt like a total failure.

All this happened because:

  • I had accumulated chronic stress in my system.

  • My nervous system was dysregulated.

  • I had unresolved traumas that I was not aware of

  • There were parts of me working against what I wanted to achieve.

Only when I addressed the above I was able to finally start moving forward, materialising my visions and projects.

This mentorship is pragmatic, grounded, realistic and it is also compassionate and gentle. You will definitely start to get in touch with reality again, through the body.

When we fight against our physiology we will always lose. The mind lies, the body doesn’t.

This experience will teach you a whole new way of being. You will gain an untransferable treasure. What you will learn in this experience you will take with you for life!

This mentorship can work in two ways:

ONE - Nervous system regulation + embodiment for stressed out entrepreneurs & business owners

  • I help you do the deep inner work you have been avoiding. You leave purpose and clear direction on the table when there is nervous system & emotional dysregulation.

  • And we focus on regulating your Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). Supporting your ANS to come out of hyper-vigilance. Focusing on expanding your window of tolerance for greater capacity to deal with stress; allowing you to experience more clarity, focus and sustained energy levels.

In addition, if your business is based in supporting others (if you are a Coach, Psychotherapist, Psychologist, Practitioner, or any other type of therapist):

  • I can also support you to integrate, somatically, the issues that all your other training and talk therapies haven’t been able to integrate.

  • Extra support in getting you back into your body and knowing how to regulate your own nervous system (crucial when you are supporting clients).

  • I can also support you in supporting your clients (not as a supervisor), but in mentoring and diving deeper with you, through the body, to get in touch with parts of yourself that are not yet integrated and standing in the way of your private practice and with specific clients.

TWO - Nervous system regulation, growth and trauma integration mentorship

  • This is for you, if who are looking for deep healing work (nervous system regulation, somatic healing, trauma resolution and parts work), but don’t necessarily have a business.

  • I can support you in the areas of your life you would like to focus on at this stage (chronic stress, career, healing anxiety, parenthood, relationship issues etc…)

In both options, it is through your answers on your application that I will have an idea of the areas you wish to have support in. We are multifaceted human beings and the categories in your life that you are looking for support with can overlap.

In this mentorship I can go as deep as you would like to and is ready to.

I look forward to taking this journey with you!

What does this mentorship include?

  • Initial in-depth assessments, so that we start from the right place from the get-go.

  • 3 x 50-minutes sessions per month, with an integration week (18 sessions total).

  • Parts work sessions (Intention method), when/if necessary.

  • Customised exercises and homework for your nervous system and specific needs.

  • Access to my groups (DT & Chronic stress group) during our time together.

  • Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP). The only Polyvagal intervention developed by Dr Stephen Porges, the founder of Polyvagal theory.

  • Transforming the Experience-Based Brain method (TEB).

  • There may be elements of coaching as well, dependent on your needs and goals.

  • Monday to Friday, between sessions support, via Voxer (voice/message app) or/and email.

  • In this mentorship I allow flexibility for 4 sessions per month. This will be discussed with you month by month dependent on your needs. Having additional sessions doesn’t mean you are doing better or worse. It is what is best for you, at the stage you are at. I take it case by case.

  • In this mentorship you will be receiving 3 decades of my own personal experience and training in many areas of human behaviour, personal development, nervous system and trauma integration.

    Private mentorship is an intimate relationship. It also requires openness and the willingness to operate from a different paradigm, as what I teach is not your run-of-the-mill mindset and emotional work.

    You need to be prepared to explore and experiment with something fresh. Openness to a whole new way of being.

    This mentorship is something I wish I have had in my own journey. It would have saved me decades of pain and confusion.

  • Yes, you will have the option to renew your collaboration with me for another 6 months.

  • I only accept applicants who I feel I can help and are a good fit for this work. This doesn’t mean you can’t work with me. Another route might be best suited for your needs at this point. We will discuss this, if this is the case.

A few issues I have overcome in my life:

Decades of depression, chronic anxiety, chronic physical illness (CFS and IBD), food sensitivities, four near death experiences, financial difficulties and having to start from scratch twice in a space of 5 years, in utero trauma and developmental trauma (an ongoing healing journey).

I see myself as a facilitator and guide. You already have all that is needed within you. We just need to clear the accumulated “clutter”, unresolved issues that are standing in the way and learn new tools to support your journey.

Disclaimer: This is not therapy, nor substitute for psychological or psychiatric care. This mentorship and approach addresses trauma as a life experience that happens in the body, psyche and soul, not as primary psychological. This process is experiential. An exploration with practical guidance you can implement in all areas of your life. You can do it alongside psychotherapy, if you wish.
