I specialize in working with clients who feel stuck, disconnected from their body, or who carry an extensive trauma history. Whether you’re highly analytical and struggling to drop into your body, or finding it hard to feel and name your emotions, I offer approaches that meet you where you are. Using somatic and body-based methods, including movement, mindfulness, imagery, and metaphor, I help clients access their inner world, integrate difficult experiences, and break through old patterns.
