Michelle Kilcoyne

Life is [you fill in the blank].

I offer presence, witness, care and new frames that can be

good company in 'times like these.'

My reflection comes in many forms -

some full with play, wonder and mischief,

others with comfort and deep nurture,

others steeped in science and theory -

always bathed in bounteous time, space and benevolence.

Have a browse. Be welcome. Belong yourself here with me.

My eclectic approach can be described as

'creative, ecological, experiential, humanistic, relational,

nature-informed, somatic, transpersonal, and trauma-specific',

drawing from a rich tapestry of experience and teachings,

including these cogent core frameworks . . .

Gestalt Practice

NeuroAffective Touch

EMDR

Open Floor Movement

Natural Processing

Craniosacral Therapy

Values essential to my way of being with you

• We are multidimensional beings living within and as expressions of a biosphere; our awareness of this intra/interconnectedness supports our experience and the collective.

• We have an innate and biological drive for completion, integration, homeostasis, balance, and connection.

• We heal in relationship. Our healing affects the collective whole.

• 'Awareness leads to Choice leads to Trust.' (Dick Price) - My witnessing of you provides an external location of awareness that supports your feeling present and seen and amplifies your internal capacity to witness, practice awareness, choose, and trust.

• The issues live in the tissues. 'Set the body in motion and the psyche will heal itself.' (Gabrielle Roth)

• 'Keep some room in your heart for the unimaginable.' (Mary Oliver) - Learning how to relate to and be resourced within the Unknown can be empowering and wonder-full.

• 'It is no measure of health to be well-adjusted to a profoundly sick society.' (Krishnamurti) - There is nothing 'wrong with you'. As we practice resourcing and orienting to what is well while integrating traumas, misattunements, missed experiences, and effects from the larger life systems we live within (biological, relational, familial, ancestral, social, financial, racial, political, environmental, cultural & so on) we can grow capacity & self-compassion, change our perspective, and experience a freer life.
