MY APPROACH

More than trauma informed...

Nature Reflecting on Crystal Glass

Whether you've experienced physical trauma, emotional trauma, accumulated stress from work & life, or are facing your childhood wounding with a therapist, your nervous system is an essential part of the healing process.  If you're feeling burned-out, overwhelmed, numb and exhausted, I can relate. I have been there and remember the fear and courage it takes to start facing reality, speaking your truth and taking care of yourself. 

 

The science of evidence-based somatic practices combined with the art of compassionate coaching, embodied presence and intuitive touch, creates the effective, well-balanced blend of North Star. With deep compassion & empathy, I carefully curate holistic somatic education & exercises to help you heal yourself at the root cause. Our nervous system is the mind-body connection. It's where the conscious and unconscious travel. It's the key to how our bodies hold (& release) stress and trauma. If you've "tried everything" with only temporary results, nervous system healing is likely the missing piece. 

 

My approach is based in the teachings and practices of world renowned leaders in the field of trauma & nervous system healing including: Peter Levine, Kathy Kain, Bessel van der Kolk, Stephen Porges, Gabor Mate, Deb Dana & Irene Lyon, as well as modalities such as myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, parts work & tapping.  

 

No matter your current situation, your less than ideal upbringing, you have the ability to heal. You have the answers within. You may just need some help to gently excavate the layers that have been built up as protection, find your true North & start the best part of your journey. Though it may feel hopeless at this moment, there is a way up and out of suffering & into a daily sense of well-being and purpose. I know this because I have lived it & can teach you.
