An integral part of my work is Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP), a somatic approach by Pat Ogden that draws upon the wisdom of the body to update patterned responses to your environment, so you can feel more free in your being, aligned with what is happening in the present, & less tethered to the the past. SP can support you with processing the effects of trauma so you can feel safer in your body, & experience greater ease, while beginning to rewire limiting beliefs that may no longer serve you.

I also have training in Ecotherapy, which is centered in reestablishing a reciprocal relationship with nature—including yourself, community, and the more than human world. I can support you with deepening your relationship with nature, which can spark wonder, strength, joy, & a remembrance of a special unity that is always present if we are open to listen. Together we can water what needs tending to and compost what may have served you to nourish what is ready to grow now.

Somatic therapy is a body-oriented holistic approach that tunes into the intelligence of the body to increase awareness of habitual responses to stressors, process stored trauma , and expand resources to support resilience and healing. It appreciates the interconnectedness of the body (including your nervous system), emotions that have emerged, and thoughts or beliefs that have developed in response to life experiences. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy is a somatic modality that roots my practice.

Perhaps you may be experiencing constant worry, restlessness, fatigue, or difficulty concentrating. Physically this may feel like constricted or accelerated breathing, tightness, shakiness, or a general feeling of unsettling. I can support you with developing more ease & a subtle settling of the body & mind.

Maybe you’re experiencing chronic exhaustion, stress, feeling stuck or unfulfilled, and wanting to experience something different but feeling unsure of what to do. P‍erhaps you’d like to experience a sense of renewal, a budding sense of fulfillment, and feeling inspired again. Together we can support you with accessing more room to breathe, an increased sense agency, and reconnection with resources that offer replenishment to your being.

Perhaps you may be experiencing constant worry, restlessness, fatigue, or difficulty concentrating. Physically this may feel like constricted or accelerated breathing, tightness, shakiness, or a general feeling of unsettling and exhaustion. I can support you with building upon resources and skills that can lead to a subtle settling of your nervous system, a greater sense of ease, and rest within your being.

The effects of trauma can feel truly overwhelming— the hypervigilance, feeling easily startled or on edge, intrusive memories, fearfulness related to traumatic reminders or triggers, and maybe feeling unsafe about aspects of everyday life. Together we can work with your nervous system to process traumatic residue and expand windows for healing. I can support you with strengthening resources to increase your ability to settle your nervous system during or after stressful situations.
