About Me

My calling began as a medical massage therapist in 1987, an experience that affirmed what I knew intuitively: how the body and mind interact is central to what it is to be a human being. This is the terrain of body centered practices.

Swiss psychologist CG Jung said: “Often the hands solve a mystery that the intellect has struggled with in vain.”

We embody our stories. All of who we are is present in each moment, each movement, and each breath. What I know in my bones is the body isn’t an obstacle to peace, it’s a gateway to it.

Somatic practices offer another way into our lived experience. Not bypassing the mind, but releasing it downward, into the lived wisdom of the body.

I offer guided contemplative and self-exploratory practices for reflection and personal growth. This is not psychotherapy, diagnosis, or medical treatment. I may recommend additional support when your concerns fall outside my role..

What others are saying

“You have let me experience my bravery. You have been with me and held me, letting my emotions rise and fall, accepting them as trusted companions who hold great knowledge and are always on my side… I can be honest with myself and feel it all without the earth swallowing me up.  Thank you.”
