Meet Katie
Trauma Informed Yoga Teacher & Somatic Healing Practitioner in Preston, Lancashire
Welcome to a supportive space for somatic healing and trauma-informed yoga in Preston, Lancashire.
Katie’s journey began at 14 with meditation, later evolving into a deep and committed yoga practice. Her own experiences with anxiety, depression, and Complex PTSD led her to discover the profound impact of somatic healing — a body-based approach to restoring balance and safety in the nervous system.
Through over a decade of practice and healing, Katie found her path in guiding others toward post-traumatic growth. Her work is grounded in the understanding that trauma lives in the body — and it’s through gentle, compassionate movement, breathwork, and nervous system regulation that we can begin to reconnect, release, and heal.
Katie is trained in various yoga modalities but specialises in trauma-informed yoga. She is currently expanding her offering to integrate Somatic Experiencing®, offering a therapeutic approach that centers on co-regulation, felt safety, and embodied awareness. Her person-centered method creates a space where each individual can move at their own pace, accessing the body’s natural ability to heal.
She offers private somatic yoga sessions at her home studio in Hoghton, Preston and serves the UK online.
Whether you're seeking healing, presence, or reconnection with yourself, Katie welcomes you to begin your journey here — grounded, supported, and held in compassionate care.

Practices & Offerings

somatic trauma healing
Trauma Informed Yoga offers a body based somatic approach to healing from Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, Chronic Pain & other symptoms of Trauma.
Trauma & stress can be seen as one continuous scale. Through Trauma Informed Yoga, we find safety together to allow the nervous system to find stability. It is particularly useful to work through the somatic responses our bodies move through to help towards building resilience in the nervous sytem and begin to find space to heal.

Therapeutic Yoga
Therapeutic Yoga takes into consideration your individual wellbeing from a whole person perspective. A full intake allows for us to create a wellbeing plan to help you thrive and can focus on goals or aims that meet your needs. I offer support in implementing recovery plans following injury, aid in recovery for your needs from stress or sports activities to enhance your daily life or performance.
Sessions can be held online or in person at your home.

Somatic Group Intakes
Somatic Group work can be incredibly healing. Throughout the year I hold regular Trauma Informed Yoga Groups to begin working somatically. ​These 12 week programmes aim to bring stabilisation to your nervous system & psychoeducation surrounding how the nervous system works as well as recognising your own nervous system states.
Throughout the 12 weeks, you'll cover key areas of how to begin approaching a sense of safety in the body, allowing the body the slowly return back to presence.
Expressing the unexpressible
Guided by a journey of healing, Katie embraces creativity as a powerful tool to give form to the unspoken. Deeply inspired by her relationship with nature and the rhythms of the natural world, her artistic expression flourished during her own somatic healing process. She creates original hand-printed pieces and watercolor paintings rooted in sacred geometry, each one reflecting a sense of connection, balance, and renewal. With every piece, she hopes to spark a sense of hope and inspiration in your own journey. Explore and purchase her original artwork here.
