HEALING PENN - CREATIVE SOMATIC INTEGRATION
Trauma Informed Care
Are you looking to expand your own personal work on trauma, grief, addiction, intimacy, pleasure, embodiment, sense of safety, boundaries, feelings of anxiety?
Or are you just looking for some general guidance and connection with a little mystic flare?
I’m a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Transpersonal Art Therapist, Somatic Touch Therapist, Neuro affective touch practitioner, incorporating Integral Somatic Psychology, ACT, QiGong and ritual.
I'm located in the greater Geelong region, and I’d love to journey with you on your path towards healing, embodiment and self discovery.
I have specialized in addiction since 2013, and provided support to thousands of clients now with a wide range of trauma informed services.
I work creatively, somatically and mindfully with you to complete patterns, break cycles, make meaning, build resources, expand resiliency, widen your community supports and connections, become more embodied and open to pleasure.
This is done via touch, movement, tracking sensation, ritual, symbolism, narrative, art and reparative connection.
Life can be overwhelming and sometimes even exhausting, but I’m here to guide you through any obstacles you may face.
My goal is to help you understand yourself more deeply, to connect with more pleasure, become more embodied and gain a greater capacity to manage life's ups and downs.
I am available for group work or individual sessions.

I purchased a 12 month reading with the monthly clarity calls and I cannot recommend this enough!! Rachel has the most beautiful energy, and a really lovely way in explaining the cards and how they might show up. It’s educational and transformative. It’s really had a wonderful impact on my day to day life and outlook. I look forward to our monthly videos, in fact the minute she puts up the link to purchase next years, I’m in!

My brain can't even think of how to write about a somatic experiencing touch session.
It's barely something that I can describe and I have explained it to many people.
I don't think I have the words because it's a feeling.
So firstly, the thing I love about it the most is you, but apart from loving you as a person cos you're a legend, it's the safety and comfort that you intentionally build.
The "it's not too much" attitude with getting perfectly comfortable on the table.
The tiny adjustments the little extra bits of meeting needs, eye pillows, smells, pillow behind knees, temperature, blanket feel and weight.
All of this leads to the experience of caring for what's happening to your body.
And I've just realised writing this that there is literally no other place or time in my life that I give that level of
care and time for myself.
And then the way you keep asking for exactly the right position for your hands and how much I believe that it's no imposition for you to move slightly up, down, rotate etc.
And that makes me think of how many times, and as a recovering people pleaser it's a lot, "close enough" or "that will do" mentally when it comes to my comfort.
Not wanting to be annoying or an imposition.
Being able to make those little changes and adjustments and trusting that you really genuinely want to create the most comfort says something to my body/nervous system.
It says "you are worth speaking up for" "you deserve total comfort" "you are worthy".
From there the experience can be anything because it's not lead with the mind.
This is the part that I couldn't possibly describe.
This is the bit that you listen to what your body needs, describe it, talk to it everything and anything.
This table work for me has helped show me how to, on my own, practice the things we talk about.
It's helped me to know how to feel my feelings.
Identify things/feelings/what's happening in my body.
