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.
