You are infinitely more than your mind, so welcome to healing beyond words. As a Somatic Psychotherapist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I apply a body-oriented approach to growth and change. We meet your intuitive knowing and deep curiosity by actively tapping into the connection between mind and body to ease suffering, renegotiate trauma and build resilience. Through safe therapeutic relationship, loving presence, and gentle guidance, together we re-pattern unhelpful imprints through experiences in the present. When we invite all of ourselves to show up and heal in a safe space, our strength and capacity for joy expand.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, lost or empty, we can find your inner wellspring of hope and cultivate your unique strengths, to smooth nervous system reactivity. As a trauma therapist, I pay close attention to safety, welcome all parts of you, and support you to access the full range of your human experience.
Reach out you're wanting to live in a compassionate, truthful, embodied way; without doing more, earning more or having more. Here's your invitation to dive beyond words, with healing that includes all of you - heart, mind, body and soul. I’d love to support you in this powerful, effective, and very gentle way.

Online Women's Circle for growth and support

We are connection and movement first. Designed to be part of something. To belong. But in modern life we can lose our connection to ourselves and others. Avoiding conflict or difficult conversations, our relationships can stay on the surface. But healthy, vibrant relationships are our bedrock, our birthright. And we all have the inbuilt technology, the raw material, to build and sustain them. Unlike any other, this circle will allow you to dive deep. Through the combination of heartful sharing and truth; and guided practices for nervous system regulation and embodiment; this confidential circle will offer growth only possible through the container of community.
