Are you often overwhelmed? Do you have a difficult time saying no? In collaboration, you and I will examine patterns, habits, beliefs and blocks, which contribute to stress as well as interfere with feeling fulfillment, satisfaction and joy. Together we may explore different areas of life: career, family, grief/loss, life purpose, relationships, spirituality, trauma recovery and more. Using a holistic approach, I welcome tears and laughter, hold space to understand fears and aversions, alchemize anger into empowerment, encourage experimentation and play…where you may find an at-home-ness in being your unique, authentic self.
From decades of combined practice in yoga, Aikido and meditation, both gentleness and mindfulness support my approaches. My calm presence, focus as well as dynamic energy provide a safe environment and support for rich inquiry. I enjoy being a catalyst and guide for growth and change—for you to embody greater ease, choices, meaning and aliveness.
Perhaps after reaching a plateau with talk-therapy, you may be curious about somatic approaches and have some awareness of how your body holds stress. Most individuals I work with are professionals from diverse backgrounds often in creative fields, education, tech, healthcare, community-oriented and social impact organizations.
