Why I do what I do

I believe that healing is found at the intersection of our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being and is realized through both an individual and collective lens. I believe that being in right relationship with ourselves, others, and the Earth is a necessary component of healing trauma and reclaiming our individual and shared liberation. Right-relationship is a concept rooted in the aligned equitable care for all, and I hold this as truth in our therapeutic relationship.

My work is about helping you reclaim your right to fully occupy and inhabit your body so that you may live life in a more deliberate and prolific way. My approach is founded in the belief that you are not separate from your environment, and it takes into account how society and oppressive systems impact your lived experience.

Applying a neurobiological approach allows us to understand how and why your symptoms are showing up; it invites us to attend to your pain and discomfort with a deeper level of compassion, and to recognize and harness your physical and psychological strengths.

At the center of our work is a curiosity and reverence for the abstract, mysterious, and sacred aspects of healing, which allows us to tap into the nonlinear characteristics of well-being and your intuitive capacities.

Together, we will draw upon a diverse set of skills and practices, intricately blending them to provide you with the most effective support tailored to your needs. These practices may encompass:

  • Movement—be it task-oriented, guided, or free-form

  • Dance

  • Symbolism and visualizations

  • Transforming Touch®

  • Parts Work

  • Various somatic approaches
