THERAPUETIC AND SPIRITUAL MENTORSHIP
Aimee's approach to healing and wellbeing is truly holistic - skilfully addressing the emotional, psychological, somatic, and spiritual needs of each individual in a manner that seeks to transmute and transform, rather than repress or pathologise.
After more than a decade working with regular clients one to one, Aimee is no longer taking on new clients allowing her to focus her love and time more fully in to those she trains professionally through her school.
That said, if you are looking for occasional therapeutic mentorship /collegial support or supervision with a trauma informed, somatic and transpersonal tone, and feel that a good amount of inner work already underpins your current position on the path - you are welcome to send a contact form and enquire.
For those looking for support in the earlier stages of their journey we recommend Aimee's Online Course as an excellent foundation.
Aimee´s main interest at this time is in supporting people to deepen on their spiritual path, evolve their practice, and come in to a relationship with their tradition of interest that feels natural. Her own practice rests within the Tantric Buddhist and Sri Vidya traditions but Aimee´s approach is deeply rooted in her love of The Great Mother and is innately iconoclastic in spirit.
"Aimee is unquestionably highly skilled in both her therapeutic role and that of teacher. But above and beyond that, she will quite simply love you back to life - something I think we’ve probably forgotten how to do in our culture. It is powerful beyond words and she has changed my life with her fierce, unfaltering and intensely gentle care."

Medicinal Movement™ & Meditation
Originally trained in Kundalini Yoga & Meditation Aimee went on to study the physiology of trauma, somatic healing and the non-dual teachings of classical tantra & Tibetan Buddhism. Aimee has also danced throughout her life and has a deep and natural understanding of the ways the body speaks to us and how to use its wisdom to generate healing and wellbeing. She also has a strong relationship to movement as spiritual, not just secular practice.
As a system, Medicinal Movement™ artfully fuses psychological somatics, Kum Nye Tibetan Yoga and Relaxation, Tandeva (traditional Kashmiri Shakta Dance/Free Movement) and powerful meditations inspired by the classical Indo-Tibetan Tantric traditions.
Medicinal Movement™ teaches what Aimee calls "the art of unwinding". This alchemical approach teaches us to come in to closer relationship with the soma and skilfully tend to the somatic patterns and emotional imprints that live in the system to unlock, transmute and transform.
Aimee teaches during her signature retreats and workshops, and is also available online for one to one teaching and personal practice creation.

Somatic Spirituality & The Embodied Path
Many of us think of oursleves as spiritual or are spiritually curious, but have had little opportunity to explore our spirituality in a way that invites real depth and substance - in a manner that goes beyond the commercial veil of "social media mysticism" or a bit of casual yoga or meditation (for all its benefits).
As a student and practitioner of classical Buddhism & Indo-Tibetan Tantra Aimee is an advocate of the real raw spiritual journey, the kind that forms deep roots in our day to day lives and invites soulful descent, not lofty transcendence, often citing the mantra "down and in, not up and out". She is not one for spiritual pleasantries or bypass, but one to help her students journey in to the grit and grace of their unique human experience.
"I believe that at this time in human history we are being called to foster a new Way. A way that doesn't commercialise, rob, rape or mindlessly appropriate teachings ... but equally ... one that does allow for evolution, integration and ultimately a synthesis of the worldly wisdoms to be slowly formed. I feel we are at the embryonic stage of moving beyond religious dogmas and the constrictive structures of systemised spirituality, but that we must also be cautious not to get tangled in a messy form of pick and mix. I am interested in supporting others to find their own inner way during times of simultaneous collapse and creation. I am interested in reawakening an innately Feminine wisdom that has been forgotton within many of the living traditions - however profound their systems may be."
Those who would like to explore their spiritual path and practice in a more dedicated manner, or advance their practice are welcome to enquire about Aimee´s availability.
