Michelle Dixon

Michelle Dixon is a somatic therapist, writer, and researcher based in Sydney. Atlanta-born and Australia-based for 25 years, she came to this work through a PhD in human rights research in post-Soviet Crimea, where she sat with survivors of Stalin's deportation of the Crimean Tatars and confronted the limits of academia in the face of intergenerational trauma. She now works with complex trauma clients worldwide across an eclectic range of modalities — from biodynamic cranial touch and shamanic armoring through to conventional talk therapy — and writes on the intersection of trauma healing and spiritual awakening on her Substack.
