We don't offer this work from theory alone
At Health Touch Life, this work has been lived, tested, and integrated over time. We believe meaningful change begins within: to be truly of service requires an ongoing willingness to look inward, tend to our own healing, and develop the capacity to hold complexity with care.
Trauma does not reside in a single place, nor is it resolved through one lens alone. Our understanding has been shaped through both professional practice and lived experience, leading us toward an integrated, whole-system view of how healing unfolds across multiple realms.
Our work is trauma-aware, paced and relational. It prioritises safety, regulation and capacity over intensity or speed, recognising that change does not integrate when systems are pushed,
We work with the whole system - including nervous-system responses, bodily holding patterns, relational dynamics and daily rhythms - rather than isolating symptoms or experiences This allows complexity to be met with care, and supports change that is both meaningful and sustainable.
This integrative lens is central to how we support sustainable change.
Jess is a psychotherapist and trauma-aware practitioner, whose work is grounded in psychological understanding, embodied awareness and nervous-system regulation. Her approach is steady and relational, with a strong emphasis on safety, pacing and attunement.
Alongside her clinical training and experience, Jess' work has been shaped by ongoing engagement with trauma research and integrative approaches such as breathwork and kinesiology, that bridge mind and body.
Lee is a body-based practitioner and trauma-aware facilitator whose work bridges somatic practice, movement and energy based traditions. His approach emphasises regulation, embodiment and restoring internal coherence through whole-system support.
Lee's work is informed by long-term practice across Eastern and Western healing frameworks, held with a strong respect for the intelligence of the body.
Together, we bring decades of combined experience across psychotherapy, counselling, body-based and somatic therapies, breathwork, movement practices and trauma aware facilitation,
Jess’s background is rooted in psychotherapy and psychological training, informed by trauma research and integrative approaches that bridge mind and body.
Lee’s work draws from body-based and energetic traditions, including Qigong and Nei Gong, movement and martial practices, fascia and meridian-informed work, and somatic trauma approaches grounded in Traditional Chinese Medicine perspectives.
This experience is held within ethical, reflective, and integrative frameworks, with an emphasis on discernment rather than accumulation. Training, supervision, and personal work are understood as ongoing commitments rather than completed achievements.Between us, we bring decades of combined experience across psychotherapy, counselling, body-based and somatic therapies, breathwork, movement practices, and trauma-aware facilitation.
This work is held with care and accountability. Both Jess and Lee engage in ongoing supervision, mentorship, and reflective practice, recognising that the capacity to support others well depends on continued self-awareness and personal work.
We are committed to ethical pacing, appropriate boundaries, and working within our respective scopes of practice. This commitment shapes how we offer psychotherapy, body-based work, and practitioner learning - prioritising safety, discernment, and long-term sustainability over performance or intensity.
