My work is nestled in the vast and ancient chalklands of the Yorkshire Wolds, giving honour to the land and the ancestors who roam here.
I offer independent consulting and person-centred research which looks at trauma-informed education and approaches. This is part of my service to a world where trauma is seen, validated, and supported to safely heal. My input is available for short-term and medium-term commissioning.
As an experienced facilitator and coach, I also provide a range of somatic and breathwork support, in groups and one-to-one. My groupwork is advertised via my website and mailing list ~ or feel free to get in touch with me by email.

Due to my array of professional and lived experience, I am able to provide a unique, relational and holistic offer to businesses and organisations that is difficult to find anywhere else. I believe that the future lies in trauma integration and resolution at scale across organisations, societies, and countries and I am excited to be a part of that growing movement.
I can facilitate insights for services and programmes coming from a collaborative and compassion-centric approach. I'm particularly dedicated to how we can nurture 'healing communities,' unpick and resolve traumatisation in our structures, and bring trauma-informed leadership into mainstream awareness and system transformation.

At Arras Healing, I am in service to realising a world and a planet without trauma. This is at the heart of everything I do and how I carry myself in the world. Working with people who are on their journeys to resolving trauma, my holistic and innovative approach includes a blend of somatic practice, trauma education, breathwork, ancestral attunement and land-based connection. I work with groups, people, and organisations.
Trauma is my mystery school. I'm dedicated to curating spaces for collective healing to come online and start working its nuanced magic in our lives and communities. My deep sensitivity and integrity means I am able to attune with large-scale and small-scale fields of trauma that require skilled presencing, to form the container for greater resourcing and ideas to come into access and view. The wounded places within the land, within our bodies, within our spirits, and within society deserve to heal. It is time for this healing work to reach a crescendo.

"I have found Candy to be well organised, articulate, passionate about her areas of expertise, authentic and having integrity. In my experience she is exceptional at getting to the core of an issue and creatively exploring avenues to move a situation forward... Her intuition is refreshing and always relevant. I would have no hesitation in trusting her with any issue I chose to work on."
"I would definitely recommend Arras Healing... I cannot believe the difference and I wish I had started the sessions sooner... I now feel I can live my life the way I want, without anxiety hanging over me daily... I wanted you to know that your help, support and guidance has completely transformed my life. I will forever be grateful, I had never felt so low in my life and you brought my sunshine back. Wishing you the best in everything you do."
"I have been deeply moved by experiencing Candy's vast knowledge, wisdom and empathy throughout the contact I've had with her... Her dedication to supporting others is inspiring to witness. It has been a pleasure to work alongside her and thoroughly energising to be in the presence of. Highly recommended."
"I had 3 rebirth breathwork sessions with Candy. From the initial discovery call to the sessions Candy was warm and compassionate and I felt immediately at ease when Candy arrived at my house for the sessions. Candy guided me through the most beautiful breathwork sessions and held space for me to explore the breath and for my body to breathe what it needed to. I would recommend anyone who wants to explore breathwork to work with Candy. If only to connect to the body and bring yourself home in your own being."
It has been brought to my attention (24th February 2025) that a fake social media account impersonating Arras Healing has been operating online to send messages. Please remain vigilant and do not respond to any "cold call" messages claiming to be either me or Arras Healing. I will never "cold call" people online.
