Welcome. So glad you made it here!

My Path into Healing

When I was 10, I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.

My early years were hard. By my twenties I was living with nerve damage, gastric issues, anxiety, and depression. I was told my health trajectory was not good. For a while, I lived out of sync with myself.

Then something in me shifted.

I went back to school and eventually became a licensed therapist. In graduate work I discovered the biology of trauma and what a regulated nervous system can actually feel like. I completed certification to provide Trauma Releasing Exercises.

I found my way back into my body. I learned to listen to it, to befriend what I'd spent years unknowingly fighting and resisting. My relationship with my internal system deepened. Therapy definitely helped. Symptoms and patterns that had been with me for years began to dissolve. My relationships steadied. My life opened up.

That's at the heart of why I do this work.

I know from the inside what it means to feel out of sync with your physiology, and what becomes possible when you're not. I'm genuinely curious about people and the wisdom their systems carry. Wherever you are is the right place to begin. We hold an extraordinary capacity for healing and ease. I'd love to explore what that looks like for you.
