"The breakthroughs that stick aren't just intellectual - they happen when leaders engage their whole selves, step into creative challenge, and allow themselves to be witnessed through it."
About Hebe
Hebe is a Somatic Coach, Therapist, and Nervous System Specialist with a background in theatre and over a decade of study across healing, psychology, and coaching.
Trained at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, Hebe's early work as an actor gave her a deep understanding of presence, embodiment, and what it takes to shift something fundamental in a person – a thread that runs through everything she has done since.
Hebe holds certifications from the Strozzi Institute (Somatic Coaching) and SOS Internationale (Somatic Experiencing), alongside training in embodied relationship coaching, facilitation, and mindfulness. She has facilitated workshops for organisations and run transformational programmes across a range of contexts.
As an Olivier Mythodrama Associate, Hebe brings a body-centred, experiential dimension to leadership development – working with the nervous system, emotional intelligence and embodied presence to support leaders in accessing deeper levels of awareness, authenticity, and impact.

Public Speaking
Hebe says:
“I'm proud to be part of OMA because it occupies a rare space - where soul and strategy meet. Rigorous and grounded enough to earn the trust of serious organisations, yet creative and courageous enough to do work that actually moves people. The mythic and archetypal frameworks give participants a fresh lens on themselves and their leadership, and coming in as an outside presence creates the conditions for honesty that's hard to access from within.
What I find most compelling is the power of the group. There's something that happens in a well-held collective experience that no amount of 1:1 coaching can replicate - people witness each other, challenge each other, and change in front of each other. That's where the real breakthroughs live. OMA understands that and builds it into everything they do.
A recent OMA moment I’m proud of was when I was working with a woman who had a very underdeveloped Warrior and Sovereign. Her voice was tiny and her stature, shrunken. She was trying to engage a collaboration amongst different sectors and had such an expectation (from experience) that it wouldn’t work and that people wouldn’t show up to the meetings. She had lost all hope and drive. By the end of our work, she was proclaiming from the back of the room why people should listen to her, she was alive, her voice was resonant, her eyes were shining and she had everyone lapping up her every word. It was a huge shift for her, and she had the embodied experience of what it was like to connect to what inspires her before waiting to others to reflect this back and validate her.”
What does Hebe especially bring to her work?
Unlocking change through the body, not just the mind
Creating transformative learning experiences that stay with people long after the room
Building psychological safety that allows real courage to emerge
Working skilfully with emotion, tension and the unspoken dynamics in teams
Bringing playfulness and improvisation to create the conditions where people surprise themselves
Client Impact
Clients consistently describe working with Hebe as reaching a depth of change that other approaches hadn't been able to touch. Where previous coaching or therapy had built understanding, working with Hebe brings movement – shifts that land in the body and show up across every area of life: in leadership, relationships, and a quietly transformed sense of self. People speak of finally loosening patterns that had felt fixed for years, and of leaving with a greater trust in their own inner resources.
"Hebe was the first person who helped me find real space and movement in patterns that had felt almost impossible to shift."
"Working with Hebe has allowed me to move out of a fearful state I'd held for years - the impact has shown up in my relationships, my business, and the way I move through the world."
"I've advanced more in my sessions with Hebe than through any other therapeutic or coaching modality I've tried."
