Mindfulness, Self-Compassion & Sensory Wellness Coaching

Discover ways to feel more grounded, get to know yourself better, and bring more kindness into your daily life.

Sometimes life changes, and what once felt manageable no longer does. You may feel overwhelmed by sensory input, find it hard to slow your thoughts, struggle to make space for yourself, or want to learn new ways to care for yourself.This one-to-one coaching service allows you to learn and practise mindfulness, self-compassion, and sensory wellness practices. Together, we will explore what you notice, what you need, and which practices may help in your everyday life.


What we explore:


Sensory Wellness

Learn to notice your sensory experiences and understand how sensory input can affect how you feel and function throughout the day. We will explore practices that may help you respond to sensory demands in ways that work for you.


Mindfulness

Learn practical mindfulness practices that can help you develop awareness of what is happening in the present moment. We will find ways to make mindfulness part of your everyday life, whether you are new to it or have found traditional meditation difficult.


Self-Compassion

Explore what it means to respond to yourself with kindness when life is difficult. Drawing from the Mindful Self-Compassion approach developed by Kristin Neff and Christopher Germer, we will explore ways to recognize when you are struggling, meet yourself with greater care, and develop a different relationship with self-criticism.

Self-compassion is not about ignoring difficult experiences or always trying to feel better. It is about learning how to respond to yourself when things are hard.


Bringing it into everyday life

The goal is not to add more things to your to-do list. We will explore how these practices can fit into your existing routines and activities and support what matters to you.


What you may take away


Through coaching, you may develop:

  • greater awareness of your sensory experiences
  • mindfulness practices that work for you
  • a more compassionate way of responding to yourself
  • ways to manage moments of overwhelm
  • greater awareness of what supports your wellbeing
  • practices you can continue using on your own


Is coaching right for you?


Coaching may be a good fit if you want individual support to learn and practise mindfulness, self-compassion, and sensory wellness approaches.

You may be:

  • navigating a period of change
  • experiencing sensory overwhelm
  • wanting to learn mindfulness but not sure where to start
  • interested in developing self-compassion
  • looking for ways to support your everyday wellbeing
  • wanting to explore practices that can become part of your daily life


This is not Occupational Therapy

This coaching service is an educational and self-management service. It is not occupational therapy, psychotherapy, counselling, or medical treatment. Sessions focus on learning and practising mindfulness, self-compassion, and sensory wellness practices that you can choose to use in your own life. 


Occupational therapy is offered as a separate service. If you are looking for assessment or treatment related to an injury, neurological condition, health condition, or changes in your ability to participate in everyday activities, please visit the Occupational Therapy page.


If you are not sure which service is right for you, you are welcome to book a call to talk through your options.


Prefer a group experience?

Individual coaching is one way to explore mindfulness, self-compassion, and sensory wellness. If you are interested in learning Mindful Self-Compassion alongside others, you may also want to explore my group program. Explore the Mindful Self-Compassion group program
