Hi, I’m Sarah.

I grew up in London during the 80s race riots, in a mixed-race family where I learnt early what it meant to stand out and what it took to fit in. By my twenties, I had mastered the art of achievement - head girl, MBA, management consultant, the house and the relationship. From the outside, it looked like success. Inside, I felt nothing.

At 27, I hit rock bottom. I woke with tears, numbed myself with wine at night, and couldn’t understand why I was so broken. That’s when I picked up the Yellow Pages and searched for a therapist, the first step in unravelling the life I had built and finding my way back to aliveness.

What I offer now comes from that journey…and many others I have lived since then.

I hold a grounded presence, a space where the exhausting good girl shackles fall away, and the body leads us back to our raw and wild truth.

What I Bring

I carry the rigour of years in management consulting, where I saw up close the cost of performance and pressure, the way leaders hold everything together on the outside while fragmenting within. I know that world intimately, because I lived it.

I bring depth from my training in breathwork, trauma-informed practice, Internal Family Systems, and somatic work, not as techniques to apply, but as languages of the body that can reveal what words alone cannot.

I bring curiosity and discernment as a researcher, having worked with the University of Sussex Medical School on a study exploring how breathwork changes the brain. Science confirmed what I already knew, that the body carries both memory and possibility.

I bring my voice as a writer with two books published, many more pages written in search of what is real. Writing taught me that truth comes alive when it’s spoken without apology.

And I bring my lived experience: years of unravelling from burnout, shame, and silence into a life that is more aligned, creative, and free.

Clients often describe the space I hold as calm, uncluttered, and deeply supportive. One told me:

“Her calmness pervades everything she does. Working with Sarah helped me move through fears and access parts of myself that needed to be expressed. It’s been a profoundly beneficial journey.”

Another said:

“Sarah has helped me nurture my inner strength, break free from limiting patterns, and transform my self-belief. I feel empowered to move forward, not just in my career, but as myself. It’s the most freeing gift I could imagine.”

And after a retreat:

“Thank you, Sarah, for a life-changing and deeply nourishing experience that keeps on giving long after it’s over.”

These words are echoes of what happens when presence meets what has been hidden.

Fast Forward to Today

Now in my fifties, my work feels less like a career and more like a vocation. I have always loved travel and run international retreats, I write, I create art, I am writing a book about perimenopause as a rite of passage, and I work one-to-one with a small number of people who are ready to meet themselves in new ways.

Every retreat, every session, is an invitation into what is most real - the body’s knowing, the truth beneath the performance, the aliveness waiting underneath.

If you’re ready to step beyond the masks of achievement and explanation, if you’re ready to meet yourself more fully, not as an idea, but as a lived experience in the body, I would love to walk with you.

Books and Publications

In 2017, I wrote a book about crafting, creativity and mindfulness, entitled "Mindful Crafting: The Maker's Creative Journey" published by Quarto.
