About My Clients

Looking for support and ways to increase your motivation and capacity for healing? With somatic-body based therapy you can experience a meaningful shift in how you experience yourself. My clients want a scientific approach that feels safe, supportive and respectful of their lived experiences. We work towards identity development and creatively explore areas for growth and healing of traumatic experiences.

My Background and Approach

For the past two decades, I have supported community mental health through meditation, mindfulness, and trauma-informed yoga classes. These modes of healing are finally being incorporated into Western psychology. Somatic approaches offer an easier way to reduce uncomfortable symptoms, improve embodiment of emotions and therefore cognition and self awareness. I am passionate about supporting and connecting with those who have experienced marginalization due to identity. When we bring curiosity and an open mind, rigid belief systems shift and new perspectives can emerge. Research continues to inform best practice. I believe in staying active in continuing ed. and assist at SEI beg/intermed trainings.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that it is within relationship that we have the greatest potential to heal. I will meet you with presence, respect and care. Together we will join in this important work to uncover and explore identity, meaning and purpose. You may discover a renewed sense of your vitality and can expect to share some laughter and levity along the way.
