Book a Session
In-Person or Zoom Somatic Therapy
Current Clients: If you are a current in person Somatic Therapy client, please use the calendars below (either in person or Zoom) to book sessions that suit you. If you are unable to find sessions, please contact [email protected] for support in setting up appointments / being on the cancellation list.
New Clients (In-Person Sessions): I offer both in-person and Zoom sessions. Please book under the New Client heading for either in-person or zoom appointments. The payment for new client intake
sessions is $330AUD and this is required as an upfront payment when you book your session (ongoing sessions are $280AUD per session and can be paid in session as you go). Sessions go for at least 90 minutes and include extensive intake and follow up information/support.
Session Time & Costs
Sessions run for between 90 and 100 minutes. They include intensive somatic work coupled with psychotherapy. Pricing is varied (see below), and concessions are available. My pricing reflects the fact that my sessions are up to twice the length of traditional psychotherapy sessions and the intensity of the work means that I can only see a limited number of clients at any given time.
Intake sessions: $330 per session
If you are brand new, there is an intake form to fill out, and during your first session, we can talk about your goals and, after the somatic work, how you'd like to proceed. Then I can map out a plan for you.
Subsequent sessions: $280 per session
If you plan to work with me intensively for a period of time, usually this is between 6 and 12 sessions. I offer discounts on upfront payments for your sessions.
Concessions: If you need a concession rate, please contact me at [email protected]. I know what it is like to feel challenged financially and I believe everyone deserves to be able to access the healing they are seeking. However, I operate in the same economic climate as everyone else and to offer you a concession means I reduce my income, which I am prepared to do for those in need but please only ask if you are committed to the work and you could not do it without a concession. A price effective alternative is that you work with me in my online Somatic Healing Space Membership, which is either $59AUD per month or $99AUD per month, depending on the Tier of support you choose.
"I can't recommend her enough."
Liz is an absolutely incredible and talented somatic therapist. If you think you need some help with your every day stress, traumas, anxiety and past issues then don’t delay in talking to her. I’ve done her six week course, one on one and a shadow workshop along with many of my friends. I can’t recommend her enough - just book and work on yourself - you won’t regret it!

Liz worked across various fields of service provision before establishing her own practice, including youth and family counselling, early intervention family programs supporting children aged 0-5, homelessness interventions, and drug and alcohol rehabilitation. She was also a senior yoga teacher who trained student teachers in trauma yoga and teaching methodology. Liz's passion for somatic work was born out of her own trauma at the hands of a well-known religious institution when she was a young girl. Liz found, after battling addiction, eating disorders, a fragmented sense of self, self-harm, a stint in a psychiatric ward and endless years of talk therapy, that the only thing that really helped her heal was somatic work.
Liz’s supervisor is a clinical psychologist and the Teaching Assistant for The NeuroAffective Touch™ Institute, Inc in Los Angeles.
