About My Clients

I enjoy working with people who feel like their mind and body aren’t always on the same page—one part of you wants to keep moving forward, while another part seems to hit pause. Maybe stress, anxiety, or old patterns keep showing up, or your body feels like it’s carrying a story you can’t quite put into words.

My Background and Approach

My approach is grounded in two years of post-master’s training in Somatic Experiencing, a body-oriented modality that helps regulate the nervous system and process trauma. I also draw from polyvagal theory, psychodynamic principles, and attachment theory to inform my work. My hope is for folks to walk away with greater understanding — both of themselves and the internal and external resources that contribute to wellbeing.
