About My Clients
Are you feeling overwhelmed in this challenging and uncertain time? I specialize in offering safe space and providing tools for decreased stress, improved coping skills, and overall well-being. My unique practice will help you to feel your aliveness and courage again. I offer trauma-informed, in-depth care for anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and chronic illness. I look forward to getting to know you through personalized care and to building authentic trust.
My Background and Approach
My focus is establishing and maintaining trust. I spend a great deal of time listening and giving space to long-held tensions. Together, we build foundational and wellness practices that offer in-depth care and support. In this body-mind work, I include a breadth of breath-work, mindfulness practices, somatic awareness practices, guided meditation, and other holistic tools. I provide on-going mentoring and support, stress-reduction therapies, and embodiment practices. I developed this practice through my nursing history, my work as a yoga therapist and work as a mindfulness meditation teacher. You receive supportive and practical tools for managing life. My work is used as a stand-alone practice or as a complement to traditional therapy. We all get lost along the way. You are not broken. You are healing.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My work meets you where you are. This client-led and non-diagnostic work is where classical yoga techniques meet contemporary mind-body science. I am passionate about deep care; working with you to reconnect to your healing potential and inherent wisdom. My compassionate and gentle practices help you to develop the integral qualities you want to reawaken, including self-agency, emotional intelligence, coping skills, and self-respect. My history as an ICU nurse inform this care. I am also a hospice volunteer and a lay pastoral counselor and Level 3 Healing Touch Practitioner. I am also an advanced teacher in the Y4C (Yoga for Cancer) training program with additional training in the Mindful Yoga for Cancer Integrative/Research-Based Model at Duke Univ. I lead a cancer rehab program at my local hospital system; with a specialized wellness program I created, "I Thrive." I genuinely care about your well-being. This kind care is the foundation of my work.
