Tune into and live from your most creative, authentic self

Many of us feel a sense of separation from ourselves. We can end up living according to who we think we’re supposed to be, rather than from whatever Mystery we are.

I offer a dialogue process rooted in presence and deep listening that opens a nourishing sanctuary within.
Here, the vastness of the subconscious and the focused clarity of the conscious mind become available at once, creatively collaborating to bring fresh solutions to what once felt like problems.

This is a space for you to be met unconditionally.
Loosed from the violence of any ‘shoulds’, we’re guided instead by what lights up your soul.

When your inner life is given this safety that it needs to weave itself into the world, we can learn its poetries; how it likes to speak, move, make art, make peace, make love, make magick.
Then you can invite this hidden creative intelligence to move and express itself through you.

This work can help you to:

“Sufis say there are three ways of being with the mystery: prayer, then a step up from that, meditation, and a step up from that, conversation, the mystical exchange they call sohbet”
– Coleman Barks, Rumi: The Book of Love

Hi, I’m Cian

I’ve trained with dancers who admit they’re really teaching liberation, a taoist master who’d sometimes bust out the most bombastic physical theatre, a poet whose flow is prayer and a zen master who loved poetry, clown teachers who could navigate you through the underworld and back, and mystics who play rock-and-roll.
From what I can tell, the sources of art, healing and spirituality are all the one source.
I try my best to live there.

I’m an innerdance facilitator, certified hypnotherapist, multidisciplinary artist and lifelong student of what helps us become who we are. I have over twenty years experience with therapeutic dialogue processes (NonViolent Communication, Charles Berner’s self-enquiry dyads, Bohmian dialogue and others).

This work emerged from my years facilitating innerdance, a bioenergetic surrender process rooted in the simple trust that we don’t need to engineer our own self-becoming; we simply create the right conditions to let it all unwind.
Over time, a dialogue practice grew out of those sessions, drawing on my background in hypnotherapy and therapeutic conversation, to help guide and integrate what naturally arises.
