"It is the limitation of our being that makes us sad and angry and constitutes our fear. If one wants to change character, it is not enough to talk about feelings; they must be experienced and expressed."
Alexander Lowen, Fear of Life

Sebastiana offers one to one sessions and therapeutic voice workshops using the methods and principles of Voice Movement Therapy.

Sebastiana Mikulova, MA VMTR

Sebastiana started out studying languages at the Charles University in Prague. Her Masters in French and the teaching qualification she gained there allowed her to move to Norfolk in England and work in schools as a teacher. More recently she has worked as a support worker with children with emotional and behavioural difficulties, incorporating Voice Movement Therapy. Currently she is studying towards a Diploma in Child Counselling using the Arts at the Institute for Arts in Therapy and Education in London.

Sebastiana has enjoyed singing since she was a child. Exploring her voice became part of her spiritual journey. In 2005 she discovered Voice Movement Therapy, which she found brought together the missing pieces of her search for a holistic approach to voice and she undertook the VMT training on Martha’s Vineyard, USA 2 years later. In 2010 she qualified and became a professional member of the International Association for Voice Movement Therapy.

Since then she has been running workshops in the U.K. and Prague, Czech Republic and recently founded the Norfolk Voice Movement Therapy Centre in the U.K. with her colleague Lilith Gottfarb. It is based in Norwich, where they see their clients and run workshops. This year she became vice-president of the IAVMT.

Her love of language also fuels her passion for song writing. She performs her songs as a solo artist, accompanying herself on accordion, or with other musicians. She has been a member of Klezmer, Circle Dance, and Gypsy bands as an instrumentalist and vocalist. www.myspace.com/sebastianam
