Organisational Programmes

Organisations and Institutions are navigating unprecedented disruption, from AI integration, ecological crisis, staff burnout, to the erosion of human connection under technological pressure. Conventional approaches address symptoms but rarely touch the deeper ancestral, embodied, and relational dimensions where genuine resilience lives.

My work offers organisations frameworks for conscious change that integrate therapeutic depth, trauma literacy, and ancestral wisdom - not as abstract concepts but as practical methodologies for navigating rupture with integrity.


WHAT I OFFER

Bespoke Programmes:

Each programme is designed specifically for your organisation's context, challenges, and aspirations. I work with leadership teams, staff groups, and cross-sector collaborations to develop:

  • Frameworks for conscious technological change: How to integrate AI with integrity and awareness, and navigate digital disruption whilst maintaining human connection and ethical discernment
  • Embodied discernment practices: Training the somatic intelligence that helps people distinguish between automated responses and genuine relational knowing
  • Collective trauma literacy: Understanding how unmetabolised trauma moves through systems (both familial and institutional) with practical tools for organisational healing
  • Ancestral wisdom for longer timescales: Reconnecting organisations with consequences and patterns beyond quarterly reports

Workshop Series & Training

Multi-session programmes that build capacity within your organisation:
  • Introduction to collective trauma, trauma informed and organisational resilience (half-day or full-day)
  • Embodied practice for leadership in times of change (4-6 session series, or ongoing)
  • Breath work, meditation and somatic awareness for leaders + teams navigating pressure
  • Custom programmes developed in collaboration with your specific needs

Consultancy & Strategic Support

One-to-one or small group work with leaders navigating organisational transformation, supporting decision-making processes with sensitivity, embodied awareness, trauma-informed frameworks, and ancestral perspectives on change. 

WHO THIS WORK IS FOR

This work serves organisations willing to move beyond surface solutions:

  • Cultural institutions navigating funding crises and relevance questions
  • Universities and educational bodies addressing wellbeing, burnout, and pedagogical transformation
  • Healthcare organisations working with collective trauma and staff resilience
  • Technology companies, etc., seeking ethical frameworks for AI integration
  • Non-profits and social enterprises addressing burnout and mission drift
  • Any organisation recognising that the challenges they face require deeper, more embodied approaches than conventional consultancy offers

WHAT MAKES MY APPROACH DISTINCTIVE?

My methodology integrates therapeutic frameworks with creative depth, trauma literacy with ancestral and ecological dimensions. I call it "embodied kinship practice" - treating methodology itself as a living, responsive creative act constantly in motion.

I work from deep respect for sacred Indigenous knowledge systems, Buddhist contemplative traditions, and mycelial intelligence to ground my own Irish ancestry. Learning from these wisdoms I have developed practices appropriate for contemporary Western contexts struggling with rupture and disconnection.

My background combines:

  • PhD research in trauma and memory through visual arts (Plymouth University, 2017)
  • Body psychotherapy training in CORE Evolution/Biodynamics and trauma work (2004-2010)
  • 12+ years training in collective trauma integration with Thomas Huebl
  • 17+ years running workshops and facilitating organisational change
  • Ongoing practice-research through Arts Research & Ecology (founded 2018)
  • Published research in peer-reviewed journals and edited collections
