founder
Stephanie is the founder, creator and visionary behind Medicine Space, facilitator of awakening and women’s practitioner weaving somatics, trauma processing, depth psychology, expressive arts, energy medicine and non dual teachings forming her own unique curriculum and attuning to the client or groups needs in the moment. Her gift of symbolic sight cuts through the noise and engages with the language of the soul, directing us to the root of the issue. Equally, her philosophy and approach to healing is grounded in the felt sense and she feels passionately about making somatic [body based] therapy mainstream and widely accessible as a non negotiable foundational element to therapeutic practice.
