Olivia Mackinder

My work is grounded in compassion, care and the understanding that, for love, sex and intimacy, there is no blueprint. We’re all just finding our way. Sometimes it’s invaluable to have someone alongside to listen without judgement and help you explore what works best for you – as well as what’s getting in your way.

My role is to help you untangle and understand the psychological, physical and emotional factors affecting your closest connections. It’s also about helping you deepen what can be the most challenging relationships of all: the one you have with yourself.

I’ve worked at 56 Dean Street and The Awareness Centre, as well as running my own private practice. I’m also a writer, somatic coach and NLP Master Practitioner. I have a deep respect for language, meaning and the courage it takes to say what is true. By guiding you towards a better understanding of your inner world, both physical and emotional, my role is to help you gain the insights you need to express yourself more clearly and authentically in your relationships.

My integrative approach is trauma-aware, body-informed, built on respect, and tailored to you. It offers you a confidential space to stop hiding, editing, or performing, and start meeting yourself and those you care about, with more honesty, tenderness and courage.
