Introduction

My practice is founded on the belief in the fundamental human need for safety and connection. I aim to provide a collaborative and compassionate therapeutic space in which clients can explore reconnecting body and mind to develop an internal sense of safety and connection, to live more authentically and aligned. Through mindfulness and somatic-based practices, I support clients in expanding body awareness and the capacity for self-regulation. I believe in approaches which support a deeper understanding of self. I incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS), Polyvagal theory, Somatic Experiencing, Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY), and spiritual practice to inform my client-centered and choice-based approach. You are welcome to reach out, regardless of what you're going through. It can be challenging to find the right person to be authentic and vulnerable with, and I’m happy to offer consultation calls to talk through any questions you may have
