About me
Rosie Harte
somatic therapist & consciousness coach
I didn't grow up knowing who I was.
I lost my dad when I was one. I didn't know it then, but that loss shaped everything. It created a child who was always reading the room, always trying to figure out what was needed, always making herself whatever she thought would keep her safe and keep her loved.
I became the funny one. The wild one, life and soul of the party. The one who could walk into any room and light it up and walk out completely empty. I was an overachiever in some areas and scared to be seen in others. Exhausting.
My pot was empty. I just kept trying to fill it from the outside. My nervous system was in fight, flight or fawn, and I thought the responses were my personality.
I performed. First literally, as a singer. Then physically, I became a professional IFBB bodybuilder, sculpting my body into something impressive, something strong, something that couldn't be touched. I didn't know it at the time, but I was building armour. Keeping grief out. Keeping anything vulnerable inside, deep in the subconscious.
I made chaotic decisions. I played roles. I lost myself to relationships and called it love, when really it was fear, fear of being too much, not enough, abandoned, unseen, alone. And underneath all of it, I had absolutely no idea who I actually was.
Then everything changed.
In my late thirties I started to fall apart in the most necessary way. It felt like I was dissolving. I began to grieve my dad properly, fully, thirty six years after losing him. I felt things I had spent a lifetime running from.
I did the shadow work. The inner child work. Family constellations. I got into therapy, into spiritual practice, into the deepest and most uncomfortable corners of myself.
And something extraordinary happened.
I started to connect to myself. To my core, beneath all of the conditioning and fear.
Not a new self. Not a fixed, improved version. The original one the one that had been there all along underneath the performing, the achieving, the people pleasing, the armour. I found her. And I learned how to love her.
That's when everything shifted. Not because I changed who I was but because I started to feel safer in my body, more emotionally resilient and finally stopped pretending to be someone I wasn't.
This is why I do this work.
I'm a somatic therapist and consciousness coach, trained in NLP, shadow work and inner child work, drawing on psychodynamic, Gestalt and person centred approaches. I personally work with the hermetic and universal laws as a framework for understanding how our inner world creates our outer reality.
But more than any qualification I know this journey from the inside. A lived and embodied wisdom of that profound and transformative inner work. I know what it's like to not recognise yourself. To be exhausted from performing. To have a pattern you can see clearly and still not be able to shift it. To suspect there's something deeper going on but not know where to start.
I also know what it feels like on the other side. To feel genuinely safe inside yourself for the first time. To stop needing the validation, the achievement, the external proof that you're enough. To create your life from within rather than from fear. I also know what it’s like to be at square one, where there is very limited access to any of these parts, and that stage is ok too.
That's the work we do together. It isn't always easy. But it's the most important thing you'll ever do.
What Is somatic and integrative Therapy?
This isn't traditional talk therapy where you sit and recount your week while someone nods and takes notes.
We go deeper than that.
We work with your body as much as your mind, because the patterns that are running your life aren't just in your thoughts they're held in your nervous system, your posture, your breath, the way you tense up before you speak, the feeling in your chest when someone asks too much of you.
Together we might explore where those patterns came from, what they were protecting you from, and what they're costing you now. We'll do shadow work, inner child work, somatic work. We'll bring the unconscious into the light so you can actually start to choose differently rather than just react.
And alongside the healing we build. We work with where you want to go, who you want to become, what your life looks like when you're living it as yourself rather than as a version of yourself designed to keep everyone else comfortable.
It's collaborative, it's deep, and it's tailored entirely to you. No two sessions look the same because no two people are the same.
The only thing that's consistent is the intention to help you come home to yourself.
If something in this page has stirred something in you, that's not an accident. The right people find their way here at exactly the right time. If you're ready to stop performing and start being, I'd love to meet you. The first conversation is free, informal and completely without pressure.
