My practice in working with others involves my own commitment to embodied presence in the here and now so that I can help my clients directly understand and bring attention to stuck patterns and cultivate the potential to have reparative experiences and new choices for change and acceptance. I work with individuals based on the context of their lived experience, and practice in acknowledgement of the impact of larger systems.
I use an approach that is based in dialogue, physical body process, and attention. I use exercises meant to develop awareness and create opportunities for new ways of being.
