I'm Kate, a sensitive individual, Occupational Therapist, Mentor to therapists, and Intuitive Energy Healer. My fascination with the nervous system, trauma, and the way our bodies retain experiences has been a constant in my life. Having lived with a highly sensitive nervous system and an expressive body, my desire for knowledge has stemmed not only from a wish to support my clients but also from a need to understand myself better. Throughout my professional journey, I identified a recurring theme. Despite feeling closely connected to my mind and body, I often relied on external validation. I allowed others to dominate conversations, even to overwhelm me, despite recognising the importance of my own needs. I struggled to trust my voice and often let others take charge, even when I had significant insights to contribute.
This tendency largely stemmed from my heightened emotional empathy. I found myself entwined in other people's energies, making it difficult to stay grounded and connect with my own truth. This challenge intensified when I worked with clients dealing with complex trauma, as I often brought their stories home, unable to separate myself from their experiences after a long day. Burnout, my people-pleasing ways, and chronic pain cracked me open in the best way. They woke me up and led me to my vision of guiding others back to themselves.
