Hello, I'm Ali
I am a coach, counsellor, mindfulness and hypnobirth practitioner specialising in maternal mental health and wellbeing.
I teach Active Hypnobirthing and Pregnancy Yoga in Taunton and online.
I offer postnatal support through coaching or counselling, I use the Rewind Technique to address birth trauma.
I also run workshops and courses in Mindfulness and Self Compassion.

Do you want to
...approach your birth feeling calm and confident that you can handle whatever happens
...identify where the ‘shoulds’ and ‘oughts’ are tripping you up in life
...stop getting bogged down by anxiety and start feeling less weighed down by your own (and other people’s) expectations
...know that no matter how chaotic and overwhelming things seem, YOU have the power to respond rather than react
...put all that nagging self doubt to rest and start trusting yourself
...believe that you are already good enough in so many ways?
Take Action!
