To be human is to feel great joy, as well as to have times of pain.

Sometimes, we may need support to address and rebalance the difficult and the joyful aspects of our daily lives.

I am committed to supporting children, adolescents, adults, families, and groups as they walk through challenging times.

My goal is to guide you to this insight and to have a better understanding of yourself through your body’s experiences. With self-awareness and the skills developed in therapy, you can implement healthier behaviors and realize more positive ways of living.

I welcome you to reach out if you are looking to commit deeply to yourself—to your healing, growth, and transformation.

Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness.
—Peter Levine

I focus on guiding you to obtain relief from emotional stress through resolving your central nervous system’s reaction to past events.

My clinical background and training allow me to navigate trauma with skill and expertise, while my mystical and integral understandings allow me navigate healing and help from deeper and wiser sources. I serve others from my essence and wisdom, offering what resides most deeply in my heart. The healing I’ve experienced personally has offered me a psychologically and spiritually sound foundation from which our work will flow.

I listen closely to each individual and support their unique ability to heal by utilizing the wisdom of their mind, body, and soul. My approach is deep seated in the understanding that the integration of the nervous system and consciousness is a nuanced process, that requires time, commitment, and attention. I believe each of us can recognize how to grow in a healthy way and that Somatic Therapy can tap into that wisdom. My approach is grounded in the belief that each person possesses innate, inner resources that they may use to heal, grow, and thrive. My techniques are deeply rooted in working with the somatic experience of the nervous system within the body.
