Carolyn Wood

Carolyn leads with her heart. Carolyn holds a deep level of compassion for others and their story. As a Movement Medicine® Teacher and Facilitator, Carolyn creates safe and dynamic spaces that support each person to express themselves in all their colours. Permissiveness and inclusivity permeate all that Carolyn offers. Carolyn brings her diverse experience and knowledge into her work, and she delivers with clarity and passion.

Carolyn draws on the medicine from her lived experience of trauma and suicidality alongside her therapeutic training to empower her to be a companion through the darkness and has dedicated her life supporting those in crisis, as well as mentoring the supporters.

Carolyn has loved to dance since she was little, raving her way through the 90’s! Carolyn found Movement Medicine in 2007 and so began a deeper journey of embodied self-discovery.

Movement Medicine gives Carolyn a place where her truth can be expressed through her body. On the dance floor, she uses her whole body to express what is going on inside her. It is a blessing to let the body take over the reins for a while, unleashing the shackles of the logical mind. Movement Medicine feels like total freedom! Carolyn feels she comes home a little bit more each time she is on the dance floor and her pure joy is palpable!

Carolyn harnesses Movement Medicine within her psychotherapy work. She brings embodiment, heart connection and nature into her practice supporting the reconnection to an individuals' unique powerful resources for transformation, to hope and to re-embody ones' true self.

The power of Movement Medicine is on and off the dance floor!

Carolyn identifies as a queer cis-woman and specialises in working with and holding space for LGBTQIA+ individuals and communities.
