My Approach to Helping

Somatic psychotherapy (aka body-centered therapy)is an approach that works with the mind and body as a holistic entity. Somatic is Greek for 'the lived experience.' Depression, anxiety, trauma, grief,and OCD are challenging to face, yet bringing the mind and the body together can alleviate these symptoms and support well being, happiness,and authenticity. Somatic psychotherapy works with thoughts, emotions and bodily experiences as inter-functioning aspects of you as a whole being. Somatics is much like other therapies, yet connecting and listening to your body's cues are also used to support growth and realization. Somatic approaches are effective because they work to resolve past experiences caught in the body and to build curiosity &possibility;for a greater range of choices to challenging situations. Getting in touch with your core resources and intrinsic value, together we work towards a whole and integrated self; body, mind & spirit. The heart of my work is connecting, being real, and present with you and your relationships. I love witnessing growth, development and real happiness in my clients. The diversity of situations and challenges that we each face allows us to work together along a continuum that freely moves between education & therapy.

More Info About My Practice

What I offer is a process that takes time, yet supports real change. Real change is a fragile, dynamic, process whose pace is up to you and what level of commitment you bring to the session. I like to encourage people to have patience, compassion, and to practice self care.
