Creating

An intentional setting is vital to safely explore and get to know parts of our selves that are vulnerable, protected, or stuck in some way. These parts belong with us, but at times they can block us from being who we want to be.

When we create a culture of safety and intelligent empathy with the inner, and inter-human experience, we access our creative ability to change.

Listening

For many, disconnection from wellbeing is the result of trauma. Trauma can be large or small, covert or overt, subtle or glaring.

Through exploring the relationships between thought, emotion, belief, and the physiology of both brain and body, we can bring a more nuanced understanding of how our experience of Self comes to be.

Listening to, and making sense of each system individually, then learning how they weave together, can bring more agency in creating a new experience.

Focusing

The modern world tends to focus on verbal and intellectual intelligence, with scarce acknowledgment of somatic intelligence— understanding received through the body as a whole.

When there’s understanding how from our very beginnings in the womb, throughout childhood, and as adults we develop our awareness via somatic experiences, then we can also understand why deep change cannot take place without including a focus that honors this intrinsic MindBody relationship.

Integrating

Everything we feel and think carries energy and information flow, and we notice, collect, process, and create meaning from our experiences. But it is estimated that the body sends the mind 11 million bits of information per second, while the conscious mind can only process about 40 bits.

Tuning into the sensory story our bodies constantly stream to us becomes revelatory, igniting a more integrated dialogue with life.

Challenge will always exist, but struggle can transform into curiosity and capacity to engage with the complexity of life in a resourced way.

Sharing

I am still gaining fluency with the systems of my own Self, and embrace this as a lifelong journey. Meanwhile, sharing this work with others is an inspiration as I see the results it brings in giving people a chance at thriving.

There is much humans can do alone, but we are designed to learn and grow most fundamentally within relationship.

This is what I offer to you: attuned presence, care-full attention, and a plethora of tools (both somatic and cognitive) to help fully resource your potential for wellbeing.
