session 90 minutes online or in person
What is Havening?
A haven is a safe refuge – Havening is a psycho-sensory technique rooted in neuroscience and neurobiology to build resilience and recover from traumatic stress.
When we experience trauma or stress, it becomes encoded in our brain and body. To protect ourselves, we may disconnect from our bodies, if the situation was too overwhelming and inescapable. While helpful at the time, unprocessed experiences can linger and affect us long-term.
Havening helps de-traumatise the nervous system by reducing the emotional charge of traumatic memories. Using gentle sensory input, on the hands, arms and/or face, it shifts thoughts, moods, and behaviours. Havening can also support you to build resilience, manage stress, and enhance performance.
How we approach Havening
We don’t need to delve deeply into the details of the situation. You can briefly share what you’d like to work on. Together, we’ll take a moment to recall how the experience felt, noticing any emotions or sensations that arise and start bringing a calming sense to your system. I will support you in finding the right practice of Havening guided by your needs. You will leave with a self-Havening practice to continue deepening the benefits on your own after our
