I provide a judgement free place to find your way & figure it out. Commitment to my clients begins with a belief in the ability of individuals to advocate for themselves & choose their own path. You decide how you want to live your life. Our instincts, emotions & feelings are a gift; they are the natural barometer for navigating our lives. Often we misinterpret or fear those emotions & fall into a holding pattern as to how to move forward. We all get stuck. Let me help you move forward. I have extensive experience working with children (ages 3-17), families and adults.
My experience is rooted in the mind + body connect. Scienctific research continues to prove more about the brain and body connection than we have ever known, Come along and let me teach you. Working through & assimilating the somatic experience of life, freeing ourselves from trauma & bumps in the road.
Registered Yoga Teacher & therapeutic practitioner EMDR trained & certified through EMDRIA. Certified Brainspotting Practitioner Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Licensed Mediator (divorce and pre/post-litigation) Parenting Plan Coordination & Negotiation.
