My Approach
​
I work with you and for you. I delve deep into listening, intuiting, and reflecting what I perceive. I hold the space for your transformation. Over my 35 years in the field of embodiment and mind-body healing arts, I've gathered a diverse toolkit that I'm excited to employ in our journey together. I draw from my extensive training in mind body approaches, neuroscience, trauma resolution, creative and expressive arts, the art of embodiment and more.
