Mind-Body Support & Healing
My passion is to support people on their healing journey and ultimately to feel empowered and to feel at home in their bodies.
In my practice, I incorporate a variety of modalities to support creating new neural pathways, undertainding and tracking your nervous system, to create a readiness for growth and change. This encourages a sense of inner “balance” and the optimal environment to make the personal shifts and changes you want to see and accomplish in your life.
“Healing occurs when we become familiar with, and befriend the sensations in our bodies”
Dr. Bessel van der Kolk
Our work together involves growing self-awareness and noticing sensations in your body. Sensations are the language of our nervous system. It is through our nervous system that we heal. By noticing the sensations in your body, you can learn to track your nervous system and with somatic practices, you can support, resource and reshape your nervous system. By becoming aware of your inner experience and learning to befriend all of your parts, you can change the way you feel and become fully alive in the present.
From a young age, many of us develop limiting beliefs about ourselves, often because of developmental patterns that have been disrupted due to stress or trauma. I believe that it is possible to move beyond these limitations in order to step into our potential, and to achieve our hopes and dreams.
