Tender Explorations - 1:1 space for natural unfolding
you already have the answers, let's slow down enough for you to hear them
Is there something you've been going over and over in your mind but you're not reaching a place of clarity?
Is there a little voice that wants to be heard but struggles to compete with the noise of societal expectations?
Do you have a felt sense about a situation but you can't quite put into words?
My role is to hold a gentle, supportive space for whatever comes up or whatever you would like to bring.
Whether there's something specific you'd like support with such as your little one's sleep, or navigating a stressful personal transition, or if you would simply like to feel held and witnessed in your experience as a deeply feeling person and/or parent, I'd love to support you.
You are the expert and I am there as your ‘co-thinker’ to guide us along a path of exploration.
I love the depth and possibility of working 1:1.
I have seen time and again how growth can happen in unexpected and wonderful ways.
I’ve always been fascinated by the way we humans interact with and make meaning from our experience of the world.
From Anthropology to Somatics, from Community Development to Mindfulness, I love exploring (and unpicking) the ways that our contexts can shape our understanding and what we make it all mean.
The more I learn, the more I realise there is a real need for us to unlearn...
Unlearning all the ways that we have been conditioned away from trusting our intuition, pushed into a sense of rushing and 'productivity' that ignores our inherent value as human beings. Unlearning the individualism, adultism and ableism that comes from a capitalist, white supremacist society, that cuts us off from caring for and connecting to the wider community, as well as ourselves.
Coming back home to ourselves. Our true, human, caring selves.
It may feel far from your understanding or experience of life right now, or even hard to believe, but I truly believe you already have the answers to the questions that you're asking.
Whether its about a transition in your life, an area where you're experiencing self doubt, a desire to root more into self belief, wanting to parent in a way that is more aligned with your values, difficulty navigating conflict and conflicting needs, or simply gaining a deeper understanding and connection to yourself - the answers and resources are in there. But they may also look a little different to what you're expecting...

Get in touch to have an informal chat with me about what it could look like for us to work together 1:1
Harriet is incredibly skilled at what she does, her ability to listen and reflect back to you is nothing short of startling. In three sessions, I experienced huge insight. I will be forever grateful for our sessions and the connections I've made with my body. Thank you Harriet, you are a rare soul.

Finding Stability, Resource and Capacity to live in a way that aligns with your values
You are not wrong to feel stressed and overwhelmed. -in fact it's entirely rational and wise for your body and brain to feel this way.
AND it's exhausting and draining. Let's find ways to build self awareness, compassion and resource to feel that caring for yourself and those around you is more sustainable and perhaps even joyful in moments too.

Connection-Based Parent Coaching
Space for you to feel held in your parenting journey.
This is very much a 1:1 package, as we will be exploring your personal experiences and perspectives.
Parenting and caregiving for children can be such a big part of our life, and yet something we have so few spaces where our experiences and reflections can be heard.
I'm here to hold space for all of it, and to work together to find new approaches, perspectives and ways of being that might offer more ease and connection.

You deserve space to be supported and held as you navigate this journey.
Whether you want practical advice on aspects like positioning and attachment or if you want space to process the feelings, I'm here for all of it.

The stuff I wish I had known before my baby was born
Please note -
I STRONGLY encourage you to bring another caregiver who will be part of your network (partner /family / friend) as it's so helpful to have the same information and to be coming from the same page when we create your plan together.
I've lovingly gathered all the things that I wish I had known, from sleep support to understanding co-regulation, and I've woven them into a a preparation package.
In a short time you taught me some really helpful tools! The practices you shared felt like they really changed something in me and showed me I could be curious towards, and have compassion for, a part of myself that I was used to just fighting against.
