My practice invites you to view the therapeutic process as an inquiry into the meanings and behaviors that are impacting your life. Together, we apply creative and somatic (body-sourced) techniques for navigating with awareness daily circumstances and relationships with others. Using a trauma-informed dialogue, we clarify and cultivate a primary relationship to your strengths. Your resilience, then, is directed with a dynamic skill set toward healthy relating and in mindful creating toward the fluid integrity you compose as your life.
My work is expressive and somatic based. I trained for two years with the internship program at Lomi Psychotherapy Clinic. With over a decade of clinical and graduate teaching experience, this skill set is shared as you inquire into the heart of living as a creative maker- in relationship with your own creations and with your closest people.
Looking for support to make or go through changes? Is it tough to engage your resilience? Does nothing matter, or does everything matter? We inquire to understand your slouching and to celebrate your courage facing everyday and once-in-a-lifetime challenges. How can you possibly create your best life without inquiring into the dynamic meaning of being human?
