FOR INDIVIDUALS:
As a Somatic Experiencing® practitioner, I understand the deep, vital connection between the mind and body. In sessions I will work with you to: identify and deepen your internal and external resources; develop coping skills to foster greater capacity and resilience for difficult emotions and life experiences; identify and communicate wants, needs, preferences, and boundaries; explore habituated and conditioned patterns of relating, reacting, numbing, and avoiding so you can move away from the various levels of activation your nervous system has developed into states of more ease, flow, spaciousness, and freedom.
Somatic Experiencing® supports releasing fixed patterns held within the body and nervous system developed through traumatic events and/or growing up in an unsafe, fearful, chaotic, emotionally absent, or unstable environment, allowing greater access to a deeper and wider range of emotions. Somatic Experiencing® also supports healing from other types of traumatic events, ranging from medical conditions (surgeries, diseases, chronic illness) to accidents to sexual assault.
In addition to somatic and mind-body approaches, I'm trained in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, an innovative modality that has shown promise in treating a range of mental health conditions. We can explore utilizing this therapy as another possible tool, tailoring your treatment plan to meet your unique needs and goals.
My practice places great emphasis on trauma-sensitive mindfulness, as I believe that cultivating present-moment awareness is essential for self-discovery, self-awareness, and emotional freedom. For current meditators struggling with overwhelm during meditation, we'll explore trauma-sensitive practices to support nervous system regulation.
With a relational approach, I recognize the significance of the therapeutic container and connection. Together we create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your relational patterns, uncover underlying dynamics, and build healthier and more fulfilling relationships.
I am deeply committed to supporting you on your journey towards well-being. Together we work to unlock your innate healing capacities and create meaningful change in your life.
