Mother Nature time to sooth the Nervous system
As spring settles into its subtle and gentle pace I am excited to start offering my Walk & Talk Counselling sessions.
These are gentle, slow walks in Nature together reflecting and being with whatever you are struggling with at the moment.
The body is our sacred vessel in this lifetime and as it is soothed and nourished by movement and fresh air, there is a sense what Jung spoke of as, what supports you when nothing else supports you’.
Mother Nature is an ever healing presence and as we spend time in her nurturing company a feeling of settled grounding often settles in.
The nervous system is greatly supported by time outside and walking activates the parasympathetic nervous system often referred to as the ‘rest and digest’ state. This in turn helps emotional processing and slows breathing to relieve stress.
As Julia Cameron, author of the Artist Way, writes; ‘A day at a time, a walk at a time, even a single step at a time, my sad and entangled life began to sort itself. I say sort itself because all I did was ‘walk through it’. I have been walking ever since.’
If this resonates with you, and your body and soul are calling for healing time in Nature, I invite you to book at Free 30-min initial chat to meet and connect.
A Time to Pause and Connect with Yourself deeply
Struggling with anxiety or feeling low? Navigating a difficult time in your life at the mo?
I offer a compassionate and warm space to explore what is coming up for you at the moment.
Taking the time to really listen and express yourself in an empathic and energetically held space can be deeply healing and empowering.
My work is inspired by Thomas Moore, who wrote 'Care of the Soul', along with the teachings of James Hillman and James Hollis.
My approach is a depth psychology one which means that the process is one of making the unconscious conscious.
Whether this is through dreams, imagination, creativity it always aims to connect with the essence of our being which the ancient Greek philosophers called our Soul.
If this speaks to you, don't hesitate to get in touch.
I offer sessions in-person near Penzance or online.
Soul Care Counselling
As a Psychosynthesis therapist, I sit with that there is a life transition happening for you.
Although painful and uncomfortable, a butterfly is being formed from the caterpillar. This in-between can be an uncomfortable and uncertain place, which is where talking to a trained professional can help.
However, I hold that a new version of you with more freedom, authenticity and self-acceptance is emerging from the darkness of the pupa stage.
In our sessions we explore your present in a creative way, allowing intuition, symbols and archetypes to guide us deeper into healing, awareness and reflection.
Storytelling, painting and visualisation techniques can be powerful allies, supporting us to befriend and listen to untold tales within.
Get in touch to book a FREE 30-min session. A chance for us to connect, discuss any concerns you might have and explore the best path forward for your unique needs.

Longing to connect more deeply with Life? Would you like to practice trusting your intuition and inner guidance?
In this 7-week program we will engage our imagination through guided visualisation designed to link us with the quiet but wise inner voice, which we all need to live a rich and meaningful life.
As a Psychosynthesis therapist I draw on the resources of guided meditations to cultivate our trust in our inner prompts and messages to develop a closer relationship to the calling of the Soul.
James Hollis, the Jungian psychotherapist, writes that when the Soul is not heard or attended to, it can manifest into anxiety, depression or physical ailments.
Perhaps this is something you are experiencing? If so, this program will give you tools to re-connect with what your Soul would like to gift you.
Each week we will converse with our inner wisdom supported by a new guided visualisation, designed to engage our imagination and access Higher self, in order to receive new intelligence and build trust in our intuition.By the end of the course you will have an abundance of resources and tools to engage your inner life as well as more familiarity with opening up to that profound source of self-guidance.
We will meet weekly, Mondays evenings 7-9pm at the cosy living room of Mudita House in Penzance, starting on the 1st of June 2026.
It will be a small group, max 7 people so we can be in support of each other. If this speaks to you, don’t hesitate to book or get in touch with any questions.
Looking forward to journeying inwards together,
Warm wishes,
Sara

Unshaming the Signs
Come join us for a liberating workshop at the cosy Artist Residence Hotel on beautiful Chapel Street in Penzance. This time we will be working with the theme of Unshaming the Signs how we all might have be holding shame in areas of our birth chart. Shame is such a crippling, hard-to-grasp emotion which tells us we are in some way not ok or enough as we are.
However, once cornered and smoked out it can be very liberating and empowering to unhook those unhelpful energies which keep us stuck.
Beginner level. Please bring your birth chart to work from.
Any questions and to book please email me on alba_trossen@hotmail.com

Soul Tender Love and Care -Self-care in Astrology
When: Saturday 24th January 2026, 11am-1pm
Where: Artist Residence, Penzance (£20)
In this workshop we will explore what truly and deeply nourishes you with the help of your chart. Self-care can be a strange concept but my hope for this workshop is to develop your own understanding of what caring for yourself means to you.
The birth chart is a wonderful guide, uniquely yours, to give us hints and clues as to your needs and wishes. We will connect in particular with the Moon in your chart (needs/nourishment), Venus (peace, pleasures) as well as your Ceres placement (self-care, nurturing).
If a bit of Soul Tender Love and Care here in winter sounds like something you long for, do get in touch to book your space.
Beginner level.
