Welcome.
I bring together a variety of modalities from over a decade in the healing and personal transformation space, drawing on extensive training in Somatic Coaching, Somatic Experiencing™ Therapy, DARe™ (Attachment repatterning), PACT™ (Psychobiological approach to couples therapy), trauma healing and the autonomic nervous system.
I use an integrative approach, to support you to access your innate ability to heal and grow as an individual or couple.
You will find a confidential space to bring whatever you would like to work through at a pace and depth that feels safe to you.

What informs our work together
Somatic Experiencing™
Somatic Experiencing™ (SE) is a body-oriented therapeutic model for healing trauma and other stress disorders. It is based on a multidisciplinary intersection of physiology, psychology, ethology, biology, neuroscience, indigenous healing practices, and medical biophysics and has been clinically applied for more than four decades.
Restorative Yoga.
At its heart, Restorative Yoga is about resting. When we fully support the body, we create a space for deep and profound relaxation and rest.
We may use various Restorative Yoga postures to create different physiological and energetic effects.
Full Embodiment: Sexuality & sexual trauma.
Healing sexuality and sexual trauma from an embodied, somatic lens. For those who have experienced sexual trauma as a child, sexual assault as adults, people who struggle with debilitating shame, sexual/gender identity, body image and generally resist being in their bodies.
Non-violent Communication (NVC).
Also called compassionate communication or collaborative communication. NVC is an approach to communication based on principles of nonviolence. It is not a technique to end disagreements, but rather a method designed to increase empathy and improve the quality of life of those who utilize the method and the people around them.
