Are you feeling overwhelmed by the current state of the world? On the outside you may come across put together, but perhaps on the inside you’re anxious, stressed and struggling. With somatic guidance, you will learn to release fight/flight patterns. The first step may be to breathe, and come home to the body. Using mindfulness to hone your awareness skills, you will learn to value all behaviors, feelings, impulses and thoughts, even paradoxical ones. Moreover, you’ll gain tools for expressing a whole spectrum of feelings and experiences: tears and laughter, fears and aversions, anger and heartbreak, excitement, joy, wonder etc.
Often individuals with multifaceted identities (immigrants, adult children of immigrants, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, multicultural, multiracial etc) find my gentle, humanistic and cultural responsiveness refreshing. I often help people with: trauma recovery, family of origin dynamics, grief/loss, racial dilemmas, attachment and relationships, self-worth plus more.
As a former visual artist, educator and career changer, I hold space for learning and deep inquiry, where identifying What Really Matters leads to choice and freedom. After our work together, most report surpassing initial goals, feel uplifted and more confident to pursue heartfelt desires, while also embodying the pleasure of living aligned and whole.

I support individuals struggling with anxiety, depression and trauma-related symptoms. Many benefit from clarifying their needs and boundaries, learning more effective communication, as well as other tools to manage stress. When no longer overwhelmed by fight/flight/freeze/fawn reactions, you will feel more agency, empowered, as well as open to pursuing your most heartfelt desires.

I emphasize co-creating a trusting relationship in service of deep healing. Drawing from relational, somatic and trauma-informed approaches, together we will explore inner conflicts, transgenerational transmissions, and any other barriers to feeling satisfied. Most note immediate shifts in sessions, and incremental changes build over time. In closing, many report their lives utterly transformed!
