I help people with -emotional & nervous system regulation & becoming more grounded -limiting thoughts & beliefs -internal conflicts -body tension patterns & ways psychological pain shows in the body -developing self-acceptance & self-confidence -relationship & communication skills -parts work -existential fears -developing inner wisdom & intuition.
Using a variety of methods, I help you connect with your inner experience and inner wisdom, encouraging greater flow, growth and increased perspective. I help you learn how to become more embodied, calmer, and how to experience your body as a resource. More than coping strategies and talk therapy. I offer a gentle, safe, compassionate, respectful approach.
