Simon’s capacity to understand the nature of true healing is vast. They have impeccable skills in keen observation and genuine reflection, and is patient, kind, open-hearted, and supportive of their clients and students. I have rarely come across another practitioner so committed to transformative healing with such profundity of heart.

Simon’s background and experience as a trainer in dismantling racism and white supremacy is powerfully complemented by their intuitive knowing and capacity for deep listening to their own body while they hold space for others.

I felt during our workshop time that I was in the presence of a teacher, a healer, a fellow traveler, a person awakened to the Spirit. Thank you for the time and energy you poured into the workshop.

The work Simon is doing is profound. I’m definitely more resilient, less reactive, and have had a noticeable increase in executive functioning after our sessions.

My session with Simon was insightful, clarifying, and inspiring. The fact that we met via Zoom didn’t diminish the sense of resonance, or the quality of our collaborative process. Simon is a gifted and wise guide whose compassionate and skillful counsel is helping me to do the work I most want to do in the world.

The strengths of Simon’s work is the deep listening that guides them. Most often I have arrived for a session with an idea of what I might need and Simon will name what I am thinking and feeling. This is a beautiful surprise and only comes with the sort of deep listening that we have lost in our culture and need to reclaim from the ancients. Our sessions are guided by continued deep listening, being intentional about welcoming all the sensations. Each session I leave with the reminder to listen to my body and that anti-oppression work is not only about “doing.” I must be in my body and be in the world in ways that are anti-oppressive.

In my experience Simon speaks truth with compassion. They are clear-eyed and clear-voiced as they address a host of complex and emotionally fraught issues with full heart, attention, and love. I hold full trust in them to be truthful, considerate, and confidential.
