Certified body oriented coach, somatic practitioner, group facilitator and educator with 7+ years of professional experience in mental health & coaching sectors.

At the heart of it, I support folks to build the skills needed to shift and heal patterns of behavior and ways of being that are no longer serving them.

I do this work because it’s what I needed in order to disrupt the cycles of numbing, masking, and anxious reactivity that were rocking my nervous system and keeping me asleep to all the beauty & sweetness of my own life.

For years I felt like I was just playing wack-a-mole with my coping skills. Emotional eating turned to restrictive eating turned to promiscuity turned to drinking turned to over-working 🔁
Moving from one to the next and sometimes back again, all as a means to feel some sense of okayness & like I was worth loving.

It wasn’t until I was able to slooooow down with my feelings and sensationa, and be curious, compassionate and mothering towards my pain, that I was able to unravel the traumatic imprints that were keeping me stuck in this loop of suffering.

Tending to my pain through an embodied framework has been the only version of ‘self care’ that has led to lasting change. This work has helped me feel more capable, self-trusting, safe, connected and downright excited to be alive.

In practice, I weave together nervous system science, movement, visualization, parts work (IFS), spirit, somatic meditation, safety exercises, psycho-education, and cultural context to offer a gentle, whole-being approach to healing.
