It can be hard to enjoy life, especially when our innermost thoughts and automatic reactions are difficult or painful. It can feel like we are "stuck" on autopilot causing many areas of our life to feel unsatisfying, stressful, or overwhelming. I help people get "unstuck" from the symptoms of stress that they have been trying to manage (panic, anxiety, relationship issues, reactivity, body pain). By reducing chronically held tension in our nervous system, we are better able to manage our responsibilities, our relationships, and recover easier. Therapy can help restore an inner calm and can help you come back to yourself.
With 10+ years of somatic therapy experience, I can help you work towards feeling ease and joy. Sometimes we'll talk about your history, sometimes about your current situation, and always about what you want to talk about. I'll also guide you to notice the information your body wants you to know. Body awareness is fundamental to help you feel alive and well.
I bring compassion and humour to therapy. I am not a silent, nodding therapist; instead, I engage warmly, directly, and candidly. I hope my clients feel engaged and eager to participate. If you want to work on a specific issue or a nameless "stuckness", reach out. Together we can find paths to coping, improving relationships, and, simply, feeling better.

I have 10-years experience as a Somatic therapist. Somatic therapy is a type of talk therapy that is so beneficial for helping people with overwhelmed nervous systems (panic attacks, chronic stress, intrusive thoughts, sleep probs, reactivity) find ways to feel more at ease, calm, and confident. I use somatic awareness with EMDR, mindfulness practices, and constant awareness of trauma physiology.
