About me
Hello my name is Cai.
I am a Psychotherapist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. I have both an in Person and Online practice.
I work from the belief that each person carries an innate wisdom and capacity for healing, even when life experiences, trauma, loss, or overwhelm may have obscured it. My approach is grounded in creating a therapeutic relationship that is collaborative, compassionate, and deeply attentive to the lived experience of the individual.
I am interested not only in what has happened to us, but in how those experiences continue to live within the body, the nervous system, imagination, and emotional life. Through psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing®, and body-centred approaches, I support people in developing a deeper awareness of themselves — learning to listen to sensations, emotions, impulses, and patterns with curiosity rather than judgment.
My work is relational and experiential. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, I aim to help people reconnect with their sense of aliveness, authenticity, and meaning. I believe healing happens when we feel safe enough to encounter ourselves more fully and when we begin to trust the intelligence of our own system again.
I work gently and at a pace that honours the individual. Together we explore the places where resilience, creativity, grief, fear, longing, and possibility coexist. The process is not about becoming someone different, but about becoming more fully oneself.
