Offerings

In these sessions, we blend the transformative power of music with free-form movement. Together, they provide an escape from overthinking and a journey into the body. Music stimulates your senses, awakening the nonlinear aspects of the brain, while movement allows for the expression of emotions through motor pathways. We all understand rhythm; it is in our heartbeat, our breath, and the way we talk. Music offers you something outside of yourself to attune to; it evokes and helps you explore your imaginal and emotional landscapes. Free-form movement is a reclamation process; it teaches self-trust, self-authority, and reawakens playfulness. 

This is for you if:

• You’ve tried cognitive approaches and found something to be missing.
• You value the healing power of imagination. 
• You want to re-establish sovereignty within your own body and reclaim your energy.
• You are looking for an embodied approach to therapy that aligns you with your intuition.
• You want to talk less. 

These sessions are an exploration of the body as a source of information, regulation, and healing. These sessions support you in attuning to physical sensations, emotional states, and long-held patterns, creating space for insight, integration, and release. Through mindful inquiry, gentle movement, breathwork, and guided awareness, somatic therapy helps you reconnect with your body’s instincts and cultivate a sense of Self. Whether you are processing past experiences or seeking greater coherence in daily life, somatic therapy offers a compassion-based space where all aspects of your experience are welcome to emerge and be met with curiosity.

Transforming Touch® (TT) and Transforming Intentional Touch is an attachment-based, neurobiological methods of hands-on healing. TT offers folks living with the impacts of developmental trauma an additional option for healing; touch or intentional touch has the ability to connect in a way words may not, and is a complement to both talk therapy and somatic-based therapies.

TT is designed to support and build resilience in the organs and biological systems most impacted by developmental trauma and to integrate these changes by supporting the brain structures that are associated with memories and emotions.

Transforming Touch® practitioners trust that the body heals the body as long as, together, we create the necessary environment for this to happen. Foundational components of TT are consent, resourcing, and supporting the body through care and presence; we trust that by inviting and allowing all of you to the process we can access healing through the safe haven of the relationship with, and the intelligence of your body.

Specifically for highly-sensitive deep-feeling practitioners who want to learn how to navigate their sensitivities to avoid being exhausted and burnt out. This is something seldom discussed during our education and in trainings, even somatic based trainings, I have explored a wide range of sources from esoteric to scientific in order to figure out what’s applicable and actually works.

I practice an embodied and reflective approach to mentorship, where we collaborate as partners, trusting in your innate intelligence and resources.

This might be for you if you: 
• want to explore how your nervous system shows up in sessions; 
• are highly sensitive and want support navigating somatic countertransference;
• often feel exhausted after a day of sessions;
• want to work empathically and maintain an integrated sense of self; 
• are curious about how embodiment can lead to working more intuitively with your clients bodies; 
• want support in understanding how you can support yourself and your clients more holistically.

  Considerations:

Finances, especially in our society, are a nuanced and complex consideration. I believe we should regularly dialogue and check in around which tier currently works, As your financial situation shifts, rates can be re-assessed. Frequency of sessions is another aspect for consideration.

For a tier-based system to work, it relies on the principles of truthfulness, respect for complexity and accountability. I will never ask for income verification. I trust you to be honest.

Therapy is an investment in you, and it’s important to discern the difference between a sacrifice and hardship.

Sacrifice: You may find that, financially, you’re required to prioritize therapy and cut back on spending in other areas of your life, if there is no detrimental impact on your life, then you would consider the middle or high tier.

Hardship: If paying for therapy would lead to a harmful impact on your life, not being able to put food on the table or pay for transportation then you’re dealing with hardship and would utilize the lower tier that is supported by the higher tier.

This tier structure was inspired and directly informed by the work of Alexis J. Cunningfolk.

You might consider paying the higher cost if:

• Have employee health insurance and/or other employer benefits
• Comfortably meet your basic needs*
• Have some debt but it does not prohibit you from attainment of basic needs
• Have investments, retirement accounts or have inherited money
• Have a financially secured position or work part time by choice
• Have expendable income
• Can always buy new items
• Can afford an annual vacation or take time off

Paying the higher tier supports folks paying the lower tier.

You might consider paying the middle cost if you:

• Stress about meeting your basic needs (eg: food, shelter, childcare) but still regularly achieve them
• Have some debt but it does not prohibit attainment of basic needs
• Have employment or access to financial savings
• Have some expendable income
• Are able to buy some new items and thrift others
• Can take a vacation annually or every few years without financial burden

You might consider paying the lower end if you:

• Are frequently stressed about meeting your basic needs
• Rent lower-end properties or have unstable housing
• Have been denied work based on others’ biases (e.g., racial, gender, sexuality, culture, ability, etc.)
• Qualify for government assistance
• Don’t have access to savings
• Have limited expendable income
• Rarely buy new items because you are unable to afford them
• Cannot afford or have the ability to take time off without financial burden
