This is us

Hi, I’m Jayne - teacher, therapist, bookworm, rock climber, nature enthusiast and parent of both an amazing child and an alarming number of cats. Four that is. 

I didn’t take a straight path here (in any sense). I started off teaching English, burned out spectacularly and then found my way into therapy - first as a client later I became a professional myself. Since 2016, I’ve been working as a therapist, trained in hypnotherapy, psychosocial and psychodynamic therapy and psychosomatic work. To top it all of I did a lot of shamanic mumbo-jumbo. 

Shamanism caught my interest when I was a teenager. I think of it less as some mystical calling and more as something earthy and practical - witchy, intuitive, a bit messy and mostly about connection. I believe in the power of group work: singing, breathing, moving, laughing, crying - whatever it takes to meet yourself where you actually are. Together with my partner I'm happy to help people on their queer journey. 

My name is Sanne – biologist by training, therapist by choice, queer parent of two and proud yarn hoarder.

I used to believe most things could be figured out with a book or a late-night Google search. I studied biology, got a master’s in science communication, worked in IT and kept ticking all the right boxes. Until I didn't

Coming out reshuffled everything. Suddenly the map I’d followed didn’t apply anymore. So I did the terrifying thing: Listen to my body. That path led to years of therapy, deep group work, yoga, somatic training and eventually, to shamanic practice. No big cosmic moment, but as a slow and steady: "This feels real, true and mine."

Now I help create spaces for others who live outside the lines – spaces where queerness, curiosity and deep change are welcome. I still love science. I still love wool, wildflowers and a good walk in the rain. But these days, I make more space for the unmeasurable. The real. The soft, the fierce, the not-yet-finished.
