Bodymind Psychotherapy
A Fusion of Bodywork, Psychotherapy, and Mysticism
I welcome all abilities, body types, ethnicities, sexualities, genders, relationship styles, and kinks.
I also welcome sex-workers and others who are marginalised within a patriarchal culture.
I am particularly unique in my open-mindedness – not everything is an issue to be healed or changed, sometimes self-acceptance is all that is needed.
I specialise in making connections between past experiences and current responses, understanding and healing repeating physical or emotional patterns of behavior, and also in working with trauma, CPTSD, sexual issues, and the ‘unusual’.

Lilith Wildwood
MA movement psychotherapy
Experienced bodymind psychotherapist in private practice for over 20 years
I am informed by psycho-dynamic psychotherapy, limbic-system therapy, somatic experiencing, meditation, the healing modalities of mysticism, and the latest research in trauma, neuro-biology, and mind-body connection.
I am aligned with the wisdom of Peter Levine, Candance Pert, Kelly Bryson,Bruce Lipton, Babette Rothschild, Bruce Perry, Bessel Van Der Kolk, Francis Weller, and more.
The sessions are mainly focused on talking, visualising, body awareness, and authentic movement. I create a gentle and affirming holding environment, in which feelings can be safely expressed, acknowledged and communicated. I also work to support and encourage exploration of movement patterns, muscle tension, and the emotional and verbal experiences of my clients.
My work is based on the knowledge that mind and body are not separate but are parts of one intrinsic whole. As well as verbal communication, body and movement are used in the sessions as vehicles for expression and communication for the pre-verbal and the subconscious. Through this, I enable clients to understand the biological nature of memory and to utilise the neuroplasticity of the brain to enable memory re-consolidation.
Over 20 years in private practice – including group, individual, adult, child, and family psychotherapy – my methods have proved to be unique, successful, and a vibrant method of healing. My techniques help people to develop self-compassion, recognise and change unhelpful patterns of behaviour, and to move quickly from pain and trauma into health, growth, and empowerment.

About the Sessions
1-1 Sessions usually last 1 hour, including a 10 minute wind down at the end, and can be held on the phone, video message, or in person.
I offer a sliding pay scale based on your financial situation, so please contact me for details of this.
One off, or short-term goal-oriented sessions are all welcome.
For longer term work, our initial meeting will help you to decide whether you would like to work with me or not. You can tell me about yourself and ask me any questions.
Sessions continue weekly on an ongoing basis until the work is complete and goals have been achieved, or until you or I wish to end the sessions. We will periodically review how the sessions are going and/or reassess any goals we made at the beginning.
