Are you unsatisfied, tense, restless, or exhausted but can’t figure out what what the real problem is or what to do about it? Do you feel stuck in self destructive patterns or painful emotions but can’t shift those patterns with consistency? Do you feel stressed or overwhelmed in your life and feel unable to truly rest and refresh? Perhaps you are a hard worker, but all your effort has left you feeling heart heavy or exhausted, and fun and joy are too rare. I’d like to help you access your innate healing capacity to find peace and ease in your body, revitalize and come into a fuller and more satisfying expression of yourself.
Not talk alone, I work with the body’s intelligence, helping you to access deep, innate wisdom. The well being you seek lies within. I can act as guide and support you with therapeutic practices that help you restore, refresh and find the answers you’re looking for so that you are squarely in the center of your own creative and fulfilling life.
Entering into therapy is a big decision that is life-changing. It means acknowledging a need and taking a step into the unknown. I am deeply respectful of this process and of you. I work in a private Yoga studio space. If you’d like to explore the possibility of working with me further, I offer a free phone consult; call or email to arrange.

TRE
TRE (traumaprevention.com ) is an acronym standing for trauma and tension release exercises. These are simple physical exercises that brings the body into a tremor response that allows the body to release tension associated with stress, trauma, and overexertion. It is a deeply healing and restorative practice that can be done on your own once learned. It’s a wonderful practice to do with family members and Internet partners.
