Bring care to relational wounds
Our early relationships have a profound impact on our self-worth and our ability to experience connection and intimacy as adults. I support people who have experienced developmental and relational trauma and neglect in connecting with relational safety and a more empowered and joyful sense of self.
Somatic trauma care
Somatic trauma care
- Creates a safe, loving and attuned container
- Builds skills for somatic awareness
- Helps you understand and track your nervous system states
- Teaches you about and works with your energy body
- Utilizes gentle and intentional touch
- Brings mindful attention to the sensations/ images/ emotions/ memories in your body as a portal to accessing what's "stuck"
- Meets difficult material with skilled care to allow what's no longer serving you to release and flow through
- Helps you identify and voice your needs and create healthy boundaries
- Teaches you how to regulate and soothe your nervous system
MY APPROACH IS INFLUENCED BY
Polyvagal Theory- a scientific framework for understanding trauma, the body and the nervous system
NeuroAffective Touch- an approach integrating psychotherapy with touch, supporting healing from developmental trauma and attachment wounds
Somatic Sex Education- connecting with inner wisdom, empowering choice and voice and trauma-conscious touch
Wisdom traditions and energy medicine- mindfulness, bringing attention to the energy body and transpersonal elements of our experience

I do not diagnose and treat mental health disorders or medical conditions of any kind. Instead, I work within a client-centered, positive, relational model that celebrates your strengths and uniqueness and creates space for healing, growth and expansion.
