My Path into Healing

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

My body became something I had to manage. By my twenties, it was clear that wasn't working. What I didn't know was that I was fighting my own physiology and internal world. I just knew life felt unsteady.

Eventually I found my way into healing through the body. I connected with the landscape of my inner world. I discovered what a nervous system looks like under long-term threat and what release and regulation feel like. I learned to listen to my system and befriend it. Symptoms and patterns that had been with me for years began to dissolve. Parts of me healed. My relationships steadied. My life opened up. I had help along the way. That path led me to become a licensed therapist and complete advanced certification in Trauma Releasing Exercises. That's at the heart of what I do.

I know what it's like to be at war with your own body, and what it takes to make peace with it. I've always been fascinated by people, by the resilience each individual carries. My work is helping people return to and heal the parts of themselves they already know, and also be open to exploring versions of themselves they haven’t considered. This path feels like exactly where I'm supposed to be. It's a privilege to support you in yours."

I show up with a compassionate and open heart. You don't have to have everything figured out. Whatever you notice is the right place to begin.
