Welcome! I work from a holistic, trauma-informed lens, offering a unique combination of talk and somatic therapy. I've found that by tapping into the innate wisdom of the body, we can cultivate greater mind-body integration and access deeper healing. My somatic approach is informed by therapeutic yoga, Polyvagal Theory, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. Together we get to know and befriend the nervous system and build new pathways toward connection and safety. Clients are empowered to reclaim a greater sense of choice, build resilience, and nurture understanding and relationships with self and others through compassionate inquiry.
My work is also guided by Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Attachment Theory and Internal Family Systems, with a focus on mindfulness. We learn how to work with difficult feelings and thoughts, and build resources for navigating life's complexities. I also offer EMDR and Flash to process traumatic experiences, to find both relief and new perspectives.
My intention is to facilitate a safe, supportive, and interactive space where you can access your inner source of strength and bring about positive change. We achieve this by getting to know and trust our inner compass, enabling us to better regulate, establish healthy patterns, deepen connections, and move toward embodying a value-driven, meaningful life.
