ABOUT ME
Jeni Hills MA, BA
Dance Movement Psychotherapist
Working within this setting before doing this training gave me the fuel and inspiration to complete the course, as I could really see the gap and need for the children in this setting to be given the time and space to express and work through their thoughts and feelings in a safe and held environment. Up until 2016 I was working full time at this setting; I am now currently only 3 days a week. Which allows me to work privately 2 days a week.
I am a Mummy to one very energetic little boy, we love to dance, play, listen to music, and to be outdoors together. As a child and young adult I struggled academically due to being dyslexic. But over the years I have pushed myself out of my comfort zone to work on this area of weakness for me. I realised that it was ok to ask for help and to express how much I struggle with it and in 2016, I wrote a chapter to contribute to a published book ‘Dance Movement Psychotherapy with people with learning disabilities’.
