I work somatically and relationally, and believe that when we are truly seen by another, something stirs within our wisest self that guides what we most need to know for healing. My approach is creating a safe space for this wisest self to navigate the way. My style is compassionate and direct; I believe transformation happens when we can see ourselves clearly, with curiosity, and without shame or judgment. I welcome all populations and practice from an anti-oppression lens, specializing in work around sex, sexuality, health crises, dis-ease/disability, mind/body healing, PTSD, anger, identity, and life transitions.
I have a background in yoga and healing arts, specializing in work with individuals with physical disabilities. Somatic practices and curiosities help reveal much of what wants to be expressed through any body, exploring mindfulness, movement, images, gesture, playfulness, sensation and breath. I incorporate tools for navigating stress and self care as well.
If you have any questions or would like to see if we are a good fit, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I am currently working through telehealth using video and phone. I look forward to meeting you.
