I offer a soft, compassionate place to land, supporting the person in front of me, where all their parts, all reactions, behaviors, and past experiences can given the space to be seen and heard for possibly the first time in life . We work together to start to build trust in our sessions by allowing for choice. If you have experienced trauma in life, the idea of choice and knowing how to choose, is not readily available.
By working with me, you will reconnect with your true self, enhance your ability to cope with life’s stressors, start to feel more empowered and secure in your choices. Start to build a “boundary” muscle to know when to set them, with what people, and be able to do so without needing anger or reactivity to fuel them, You will be able to cultivate self-support infused with kindness, clarity, and compassion on your healing journey towards a more fulfilling life.
I facilitate your healing journey through modalities such as Transforming Touch, Somatic Experiencing, and Internal Family Systems.
Transforming Touch is building somatic trust through relationship, and supporting the body’s nervous system, creates awareness to the disconnect between verbal expressions and the body’s true responses. Clients may say they are “fine,” yet their physical reactions tell a different story.
Somatic Experiencing® Therapy
healing trauma through nervous system regulation
Somatic Experiencing is a therapeutic modality for shock trauma, is typically done after Transforming Touch. This approach helps individuals connect bodily sensations with emotions, allowing them to release stored negative energy. While animals in the wild naturally discharge stress, humans tend to suppress it, often leading to health issues such as chronic pain, anxiety, depression and grief. More about Somatic Experiencing
Internal Family Systems® Therapy
a healing of wounded parts and coming home to Self
In IFS therapy, I take a somatic approach, guiding you to gently turn toward sensations and pain with curiosity rather than self-judgment. Together, we cultivate compassion for your inner parts from a place of Self-Energy, or your True Self. Through this process, we differentiate parts, recognize their behaviors and sensations, and help them adopt new roles within your system. Ultimately, this work elevates the Self to a leadership role, fostering greater harmony and healing.
