I'm Nikki, a registered psychotherapist in Adelaide, South Australia, with a Master's in Counselling and Psychotherapy. 

My journey into somatic and body-inclusive therapies has been shaped by decades of hands-on body work and my practice of Tibetan Buddhism. 

I specialise in trauma, anxiety, chronic stress, food issues, grief, health anxiety and helping people reconnect with themselves. I have a strong focus on the mind-body connection and value the importance of including the body in the therapeutic process. 

As a certified Mind Body Eating Coach, I also support people to transform their relationship with food and body. 

I offer a holistic and integrative style of therapy, drawing on a number of different complementary modalities, including:

• Sensorimotor Psychotherapy

• Internal Family Systems

• Havening Techniques

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

• Mindfulness

• Deep Brain Reorienting

• Psychedelic Assisted Therapy (harm reduction)

I provide therapy both in-person and on Zoom, to connect with clients locally and internationally.

Beyond one-on-one sessions, I offer courses in 'Somatic meditation' and 'Healing your relationship with food and body',  providing opportunities for people to learn and grow in a group setting.

I’m currently in full-time private practice in Parkside, Adelaide.
