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.

I support individuals struggling with anxiety and depression to better recognize and assert their boundaries, maintain self-care habits, as well as learn new tools for navigating traumatic stress reactions. When no longer overrwhelmed by fight/flight/freeze/appease reactions, you may find yourself feeling empowered and excited, instead responding with pleasure to your one precious life.

As a Somatic Psychotherapist, I am attentive to what you share verbally along with your body's story expressed in postures, gestures, movements and more. Our explorations may include breathing patterns, the use of props (stress balls, yoga blocks, fidget toys, weighted blanket etc), and other experiential exercises to engage the body in support of releasing tensions and metabolizing emotions.
