About
'Arras Healing' was created in October 2021 and is based in the ancient rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds, Britain.
My name is Candy and I established Arras Healing to play my part in the ‘midwifery’ of a trauma-informed world. I am passionate about bringing trauma awareness and education to more people, organisations and communities. I am confident that this growing awareness – particularly of intergenerational (ancestral) and collective trauma – can transform societies and break through overwhelm and ‘stuckness’ to create new healing paradigms to benefit everyone.
About Me
I am a certified and highly experienced breathworker, somatic practitioner, trauma coach, and independent consultant in trauma-informed research and leadership. I specialise in breathwork, peer facilitation, somatic attunement practices, ancestral healing, and trauma education.
Before running Arras Healing, I worked for the NHS as a successful programme manager and prior to this worked in the voluntary sector delivering award-winning projects to vulnerable communities, veterans and other service users. I have held roles in Equality and Diversity and have worked closely alongside leading mental health and primary care clinicians to develop, implement and evaluate trauma-informed approaches across health and care settings, in particular those where health inequalities are present.
I have trained within the school of world-leading trauma facilitator Dr Thomas Hübl PhD and his community of highly-attuned and specialised therapists and consultants, and I have previously worked as a tutor and peer support leader in breathwork for the Bedfordshire Centre for Therapeutic Studies.
I'm fully-insured and receive regular supervision for my leading of group and one-to-one work. I also continue to lead reflective practice spaces for other holistic professionals, counsellors, coaches and trauma therapists, and I'm always committed to continuing my professional development.
Through Arras Healing, I'm particularly interested in exploring the interplay between individual trauma, collective trauma and ancestral trauma and how integrating these can lead to profound changes in wellbeing, wholeness and consciousness.
A world without trauma?
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 to 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.
