Biography
“There are countless methods for healing & moving forward. Commitment to my clients begins with a firmly held belief in the ability of individuals to advocate for themselves & choose their own path. Emotions & feelings are a gift; they are the natural barometer for navigating our lives. Often we fear or misinterpret those emotions & fall into a holding pattern as to how to move forward. The best work is done when we are honest and open about who we are, and where we want to be. Interventions are guided through your ideals & values. Engaging in this healing process is a privilege, which provides a level of commitment.”
“My experience is rooted in the mind + body connect. Working through & assimilating the somatic experience of life, freeing ourselves from trauma & bumps in the road. When you know better, you do better, you feel better.”
