My Approach to Helping

As a dance/movement therapist the body-mind connection is an important focus. Observing how physical sensations affect and inform our mental health- noticing how relaxing our bodies relaxes our thoughts is a prime example of this connection. The integration of body and mind supports us to heal and feel whole. I try to create a comfortable, supportive environment through empathy, compassion, light-hearted humor, kindness, and dedication. I hope to encourage the change you are seeking with gentle, solution-focused guidance and support.
