As a dedicated practitioner in addiction and trauma recovery, I bring expertise and compassion to those navigating the transformative journey from distress to healing and freedom. My practice is centered on Somatic Experiencing® (SE), an evidence-informed, body-mind approach designed to restore optimal nervous system functioning. By addressing the root causes of stress and trauma, SE empowers individuals to access greater resilience, ease, and fulfillment in their lives.

My role as an SE practitioner is to guide and support you in building a meaningful relationship with what I believe lies at the heart of human wellness: an innate healing force. Whether you identify this force as God, Higher Power, Inner Wisdom, Organic Intelligence, or Spirit, its presence is vital. The focus of our work together is not on what you call it but on nurturing a deeper, more balanced connection with it. Through this connection, physical, emotional, and spiritual dis-ease can begin to transform.

The process of cultivating this relationship requires intention and support. My work involves helping you identify and address the barriers that may hinder your healing. I offer a safe, collaborative space to explore these roadblocks while providing tools and guidance tailored to your unique needs. With Somatic Experiencing as a foundation, I aim to activate the natural intelligence of your nervous system, facilitating profound and lasting change.

Healing is a deeply personal journey, but it is one you do not have to take alone. Through the integration of SE, a commitment to growth, and the wisdom of your own healing force, transformation becomes possible. It is my greatest privilege to walk alongside you as you work toward wholeness, freedom, and a renewed sense of self.

If you’re ready to take the next step in your healing journey, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can unlock your capacity for transformation and restore a sense of vitality and balance in your life.
