About My Clients
My clients range in age from young children to adults. They may come to me because there is something specific they are looking to resolve. Or, they are simply hoping to find a greater sense of ease and regulation. Either way, we will work through the difficulty together as a team and strive towards transformation. We bring on additional support team members when needed, because often times, it does take a village and I'm happy to be a part of it.
My Background and Approach
Therapy with me involves working with the body as much as the mind. This can be challenging for some, but leads to long-term resolution and healing in a more complete, organic nature. Through both Somatic Experiencing & Somatic Resilience & Regulation touch trainings, I have been trained to work with various forms of trauma (developmental, event specific, chronic/long-term) and the way in which our survival energy becomes trapped in our bodies. We embody our lived experience.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My personal preferences and values don't necessarily show up in my work because I'm here to support my clients based on their own personal values and belief systems. I'm not trying to influence and change minds. For the protection and support of my clients of color, I have been studying and practicing Resmaa Menakem's "Somatic Abolitionism" for the past three years. My awareness of the privilege and power that my whiteness provides me is critical to both my ability to grow personally and professionally. It is long-term work that deepens my life experiences on a daily basis.
