My practice is rooted in liberatory wellness and shaped by a background in meditation facilitation, somatic movement, and transgenerational trauma. At my practice’s core is the integration of more than 20yrs of intersectional social justice and outreach education work, as well as crisis response work and community care support group facilitation. While sessions with me are open to anyone, I center working with people from communities often left on the margins of mainstream healing narratives. As someone queer and disabled, I also openly welcome those looking for practitioners from within a shared community, as well as those navigating complex health, chronic pain and care providers.

My approach is committed to holding space for the nervous system’s natural response to ongoing harm and systemic oppression- challenging therapeutic modalities that typecast dysregulation as inherently bad. I reorient individualist practices with a shift towards self-care rooted in community (even if a community of two) and intersectional awareness. And, I warmly embrace that our bodies are full of intergenerational and collective wisdom that is speaking to us.

Our bodies are a sacred site of organic intelligence and transformation when an intentional healing relationship is nourished. By exploring our felt experience in approachable doses, we can reclaim degrees of safety and sovereignty while navigating difficult lived experiences and social truths. Healing can feel loaded in a fast spinning world. But, it is a journey that everyone is aided by and deserving of.
