My approach

When you work with me, you can expect a grounded, steady presence. We start by slowing down, breathing and settling your body so you can feel what is really going on inside. From there, we follow what shows up. You do not need to perform or have answers. We work with what is present in your body, emotions and experience.

My foundation is Core Energetics and I draw from a wide toolbox of therapeutic approaches. The session is intuitive rather than scripted. We use somatic attention, breath, movement and honest dialogue depending on what you need in the moment.

You can expect a warm, honest, non-judgemental space where you can be vulnerable, meet yourself more deeply, and grow into your own strength.
