“Am I going crazy?”
“Why do I feel so numb?”
“Why doesn’t anything feel real anymore?”
This is dissociation. This is depersonalisation and derealisation (DPDR). And it’s not in your head, it’s in your nervous system.
DPDR is what happens when your body decides the world is too much and your safest option is to shut the blinds. Not to hurt you, but to protect you. It filters out sensory input, shuts down emotional processing, and disconnects you from the present moment… just enough to help you survive.
And that’s what we’re here to help you remember how to do.
Most people with DPDR get told they’re anxious. Or depressed. Or just need to “try grounding techniques” or “do more exposure therapy.”
But you’ve probably already tried that, and it didn’t work.
Why? Because this isn’t just about your thoughts.
This is about your nervous system.
When your system is in freeze or collapse, it doesn't need logic, it needs cues of safety. It needs permission to come back, piece by piece. Not force. Not performance. Not more doing.
And that’s where Re-Integrate and Thrive is different.
We don’t throw tools at symptoms. We work with the biology of dissociation, helping you gently reconnect with your body and re-train your system to feel safe in the present. Not all at once, but in micro-moments, designed to avoid overwhelm.
Re-Integrate & Thrive is not a course. It’s a guided healing space created specifically for people living with DPDR and dissociation.
Through a mix of science-backed tools, sensory integration practices, and nervous system repair, you’ll be supported to:
• Understand why your brain and body respond this way
• Rebuild a felt sense of safety and presence
• Begin trusting your own perception again
• Gently reawaken the parts of you that went offline
Hi, I’m Ash and I know what it feels like when your body doesn’t feel like home anymore.
For years, I could hold space for everyone else but struggled to stay present in my own life.
No matter how much I “understood” what was happening, I couldn’t feel like I was here. I felt like I was drifting, observing, surviving; not living.
At 31, my nervous system finally collapsed. And in that moment, I realised: healing wasn’t about doing more. It was about creating the safety I had never truly known.
Now, with a PhD in neuroplasticity and over 12 years of clinical experience, I’ve brought together everything I know works; not just from textbooks, but from lived, embodied healing.
Re-Integrate & Thrive is a slow, kind invitation to come home to yourself.
Not with pressure. Not with performance. But with permission.
You don’t need to force your way back. You get to invite yourself home.
With love,
Ash

This isn’t a course. It’s a healing space.
It’s for people who feel foggy, numb, disconnected or unreal; like you’re functioning on the outside but floating through life on the inside.
Whether your system shuts down under pressure, zones out in relationships, or leaves you watching life from the sidelines… this is your way home.
If your body hasn’t felt like a safe place to be; this space was made for you.
Short, guided processes to bring your awareness gently back into your body; one safe moment at a time.
Understand your shutdown patterns, identify subtle cues, and notice when your system is starting to leave.
Anchor back into the present moment when life feels dreamlike, foggy, or not real without fear or shame.
A step-by-step tool to safely meet emotion, engage parts work, and gently metabolise what’s been stored.
Quick ways to regulate through sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste; grounded, simple, and always accessible.
Explore presence in safe doses; titrated, optional, and completely at your pace.
To support deep, lasting change, we’ve bundled your chosen specialisation with the Mental Health Foundations program, a practical and neuroscience-informed pathway that helps you understand your brain, your body, and your healing process.

And now, you get to come home gently, in a way that honours what you’ve been through.
You don’t have to do this alone.
You just need a way forward that feels safe for your nervous system, your heart, and your truth.
This isn’t a replacement for therapy, it’s a safe, self-paced space that helps your system feel ready for deeper work. It bridges the gap between “knowing” and “feeling.”
You don’t need one. If you feel numb, checked out, or not quite here ; this work is for you.
Yes. Many people find it complements what they’re already doing by helping them reconnect with their body and inner cues more consistently.
This is built for that. Every tool is trauma-informed, titrated, and designed for microdoses. You can pause, come back, or slow down whenever you need.
