My work is shaped by somatic and experiential therapies including Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Polyvagal Theory, Somatic Experiencing, and Affective Neuroscience.

Our bodies are wired for healing, but above all else, they’re committed to keeping us safe. Because of this, our past experiences can cause us to get stuck living in perpetual fight or flight and unconsciously defaulting to what were once self-protective strategies, making it difficult for us to feel at ease and fully inhabit the present moment. This can manifest through the body as insomnia, stomach issues, rumination, anxiety, a felt sense of stuckness, or a general sense of unease, dissatisfaction, and disconnection from self and others. 

The good news is, we can consciously heal and create new patterns that transform how we feel and are able to move through our lives.

I work holistically, supporting you to embody your emotions and befriend your nervous system. Together, we will listen to what your body is communicating moment by moment about both the past and the present, as well as what your system needs in order to build safety, metabolize stuck emotional energy related to stress and trauma, and promote positive neuroplasticity (our innate propensity to evolve, heal, and create new neural pathways in the brain that are aligned with our health and vitality).

Our bodies are full of untapped wisdom and vitality and are the place where life and healing happen. My desire is to help you attune to the wisdom of your body, learn together what your nervous system needs in order to come back to regulation, and help you uncover and fully inhabit your fullest and freest Self.
