"The soul always knows how to heal itself. 

The challenge is to silence the mind." 

-Caroline Myss

Beginning therapy can feel like stepping into the unknown. You're here, ready and courageous, hoping to find clarity and healing—and I'm here to guide you.

What is Somatic Experiencing?

Imagine your nervous system as a river that's been blocked by challenging experiences. Somatic Experiencing helps you gradually clear those blockages, allowing your natural flow of rhythm to return. Together, we'll sit, and I'll listen—deeply and without judgment. 

Healing isn’t just about reliving painful memories; it’s about supporting your body’s incredible ability to process and release stored stress. Through a blend of talk therapy and Somatic Experiencing, we’ll work together to unlock your natural capacity for healing.

Your Stories Matter

Your stories--both the moments that have kept you going and the experiences that have nearly broke you--matter. Together, we make sense of your thoughts and feelings in the context of your life. With Somatic Experiencing, we’ll uncover how embracing heartbreak can lead to profound healing and transformation.

How I Personalize Your Care

Unlike traditional talk therapies, this approach honors the profound connection between your mind, body, and emotional well-being. I create a personalized blend of traditional talk therapy and Somatic Experiencing tailored to your unique needs. Everyone's path to feeling better looks different. Some benefit from a gentle, body-focused approach, while others heal through a combination of deep conversation and somatic work. We’ll find what works best for you.

Together, we'll:

• Release the emotional weight you've been carrying 
• Develop curiosity about what your body is telling you
• Rediscover a sense of calm and safety in your body
• Remember how to roll with life's punches and feel genuinely connected

Somatic Experiencing isn't about fixing something broken. It's about recognizing that your body already knows how to heal. Sometimes, we just need a little help remembering how.

The Healing Journey

Healing is both raw and tender, complex and profound. Through this process, you'll begin to embrace your humanity -- accepting what is possible and what is not. Your criticism evolves into curiosity, and you'll learn to welcome both sorrow and joy. In time, finding a sense of wholeness that feels both fragile and invigorating.
