Hello, come in!
This is a place for getting back in touch with our sensing and feeling selves. We get to know what our bodies carry, and check to see if that's in alignment with our values and what we're aiming toward. I'll help you integrate past experiences that may still need attention, increase your ease in moving between moods, and build the embodied skills to get you where you're trying to go.
One reason I'm such a believer of centering our bodies in healing work is that they're at the foundation of so much that matters to us- how we experience ourselves, how we engage with others, how we show up in the world, and how we organize our lives. When we work at the site of the body, we are working with the root structure.
I draw from a collection of somatic approaches to inform my work, which are briefly listed here. My style is collaborative, relational, and non-pathological.
Our work together can include:
- integrating and digesting impactful experiences
- relieving stress-related physical symptoms
- rebuilding collaborative relationships with our sensing and feeling selves
- increasing capacity to be with powerful sensations and emotions
- clarifying personal values, and building the embodied skills to act in alignment with them
- meeting curiosities, memories, wisdom, pleasure, agency and power held within your body
- preparing your body for surgery, and / or supporting your recovery afterward
- nourishing your body through somatic bodywork to support vitality during high intensity times
