Clients commonly come to me for support with…
Complex and interconnected issues that would benefit from being seen as a whole, instead of (or in addition to) by several specialists.
Understanding the body-mind connection through experience. In our work together we integrate "top down" (cognitive) processing with "bottom up" (sensation and movement-based) processing.
Pain in any area of the body (including musculoskeletal, headache, and digestive system pain).
Injury recovery, whether recent or old/chronic.
Reclaiming mobility, flexibility, and strength, especially as we get older.
Addressing mental health issues related to nervous-system dysregulation including high-activation states like stress, anxiety, and overwhelm and low-activation states like feeling frozen, depressed, or numb.
Connect with and feel more vulnerable states and emotions to build self-compassion and digest and process challenging experiences.
Trauma-informed bodywork for those who might be triggered by touch or want to feel safer in their bodies.
Relief from symptoms of developmental trauma-- old patterns of feeling unsafe developed in infancy and childhood.
A deep reset from chronic or acute stressors like
Transitions - Losses and changes in relationships, career, parenting, health status, etc.
The stress of modern life - Overstimulation, ecological crisis, social injustice, etc.
Somatic education to understand the “why” and “how” of your embodied experience.
Learn to notice and release tension as it arises instead of unconsciously carrying it, as well as to identify thinking patterns and situations that trigger tension.
A more positive "body-image" through learning to live with love and presence from the inside instead of through external judgements.
Developing a holistic wellness plan which may include referrals to allied providers and self-care at home.
Save money and time by doing truly holistic work that often reduces the need for other appointments and investments in your health.
ENJOY being embodied instead of your body being an inconvenience or problem.
Preparation and integration for experiences with psychedelics/entheogens.
Experiencing states of deep peace and relaxation.
Building the capacity to:
Find more clarity about how you feel, you boundaries, and what you want,.
Move towards what you want with effectiveness.
Enjoy the nourishment that life has to offer.
Rest, recuperate, and let things be as they are.
Cultivating more positive moods and feelings over time.
