I’m originally from Portugal and have lived in the UK for over 30 years. I’m a mother, grandmother, and someone who has seen first-hand how powerful human connection can be. Sometimes the simplest gestures, a warm embrace, a held hand, or simply being present with someone, can bring comfort when words are not enough.

Through Embracing Moments Therapy, based in the Maidstone area, I offer a calm, supportive space where people can slow down, feel safe, and reconnect with themselves. My aim is to create an environment where you feel respected, heard, and gently supported.

With a background in nursing, counselling, and hypnotherapy, I bring a holistic understanding of emotional wellbeing to every session. I understand how life can sometimes feel stressful, overwhelming, or isolating because we all experience those moments. That’s why every session is designed to be safe, respectful, and fully clothed, always guided by your personal comfort level and boundaries.

As a certified cuddle practitioner, I provide professional, platonic touch therapy designed to support emotional wellbeing and reduce feelings of stress, anxiety, or loneliness. Sessions are centred around consent, trust, and clear boundaries, offering gentle, comforting human connection in a completely safe and professional setting.

Whether you’re curious about cuddle therapy, experiencing loneliness, or simply seeking a peaceful moment to relax and recharge, I’m here to provide a space where you can feel genuinely supported and cared for.

Portuguese, Spanish and English. I am a proud mum and granny, and my life experiences have deeply shaped how I understand connection and emotional wellbeing.

Throughout my career, including years working in hospice care, I’ve seen how human presence and nurturing touch can soothe pain, calm the nervous system and restore a sense of hope — often in ways words alone cannot. That’s where cuddle therapy comes in.
