Welcome to

Counselling & Yoga

Soma Therapi brings somatic counselling, yoga, movement and nature-based practice together under one roof, at Mamhilad Park Estate in Pontypool. No two people heal the same way, so the approach here is built around you – mind and body, at your own pace.

Whether you’ve come for therapeutic support, mindful movement or simply a deeper connection to yourself, you’re welcome here.

Holistic wellbeing

About me

One thing I've learned throughout my career is that there is no single path to wellbeing. We are all different, and the ways we heal, grow and connect will be different too.

I’ve spent many years supporting people through a variety of roles – as a personal trainer, gym manager, yoga teacher, ACCPH-accredited therapeutic counsellor, clinical hypnotherapist and community practitioner. For a long time, I viewed these as separate parts of my professional life. But over time, I began to see a common thread running through them all: a desire to help people feel stronger, more connected and more at home in themselves.

Soma Therapi was born from that realisation. It's a reflection of my belief that true wellbeing happens when we stop working in silos and begin to honour the connection between mind, body, community & nature. By bringing together counselling, movement and holistic practices, I hope to offer a space where people can be supported in a way that feels integrated, compassionate and uniquely right for them.
