I help where you are stuck -- body, story, nerves, or soul. Our difficult experiences can lodge many places. I have a big "tool chest" - from EMDR to mindfulness - to help you meet and transform what needs healing. I believe that each of us has a wholeness, no matter how hidden. I help you to contact that wholeness, in order to access your own wisdom. Together we find your unique path through to your truest self. What is waiting for you is a life of meaning and the ability to connect.
I work with Highly Sensitive People and Empaths, and help navigate personal meaning, spirituality & religion. I'm gifted with trauma healing. Growing up in several cultures, I support navigating "code switching" while discovering or keeping your own center. Body issues, performing and creativity are also passions.
People have come to me with their overwhelming experiences my whole life. I was a dancer and am certified in Qigong and Yoga to help you integrate change your relationship with your body, no matter what. I am highly collaborative, co-creating with you a unique treatment plan most suited to your needs and goals. Let's discover & heal!
