I enjoy incorporating somatic and trauma informed yoga therapy when needed to help my clients connect to themselves and their feelings.
Do you feel overwhelmed by life? Have you had disappointments and things in your life that did not go as planned? Have you found yourself in a divorce and it feels like your world is falling apart? Maybe you are a couple that needs help getting back on track. Or perhaps you have things in your life that have happened that were traumatic to you? If so, you are in the right place! I love working with clients to help them heal from past wounds, teaching them skillsets that will help them grow and create new pathways in their brain. My goal is to be your guide in your healing journey.

Using feeling and need language, somatic information and story work, I will help you find yourself on the map.
My greatest pleasure is meeting people where they are and being curious about where they might be going. I don’t believe that I can take anyone to a place I haven’t been myself so I have remained committed to broadening and unburdening my own heart in my personal journey. My personal suffering transmuted by an abundance of grace has been my greatest teacher, so long as I haven’t had to suffer alone. My mission is to join others in their struggle and help them reveal truths that will create freedom in their lives.

In my personal and professional life, I have found one thing to be true: Life can be hard. I have a passion for supporting others in resolving pain and reclaiming fullness in life. While pain is an inevitable part of the human experience, suffering is optional. I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families heal from relational and other traumas, problematic sexual behaviors, addictions, and intimacy disorders. I see brokenhearted adults and children as they learn to cope with an unstable world. My heart is to heal the broken hearted and give hope where hope was once lost.

Counseling can be incredibly helpful for a variety of life’s challenges. Are you going through a life transition? Have you recently experienced a loss? Is there trauma from your past that you are struggling to navigate? Are you struggling with sexuality, intimacy, fertility, pregnancy or postpartum? Are you struggling to connect with yourself and/or others? Are you feeling worthless, feeling like it’s impossible to love yourself? Does the concept of existing as a human feel really overwhelming right now? If you answered yes to any of these questions, this can be a wonderful indicator that counseling may be beneficial right now.

Thoreau said "There are a thousand hacking at the branches to every one striking at the root." In therapy, I believe our most valuable work is striking at the root of issues rather than hacking merely at the many branches/symptoms of the root. This latter approach often leads to resolving one manifestation of a problem only to experience new manifestations down the road. Whether the symptoms are anxiety, depression, addictions, or maladaptive relationships, it is worthwhile to examine the deeper sources of our pain. One of my primary roles will be to provide a steadfast ground of compassion, patience, and truth for your work.

Somatic Therapists

How does somatic therapy work?

Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.

Is EMDR a somatic therapy?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.

Is somatic therapy evidence-based?

Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.

What is somatic trauma therapy?

Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
