How I Can Help You

I help people come home to their own bodies. Using fascia-informed bodywork and nervous system-based practices, I work with you to read what your body has been holding onto: old stress, old stories, patterns you didn't choose but have been living inside of. Together we call this your Somatic Signature, the unique way your nervous system has learned to protect and express itself. This isn't about fixing or forcing change. It's about tending: building your capacity to notice, regulate, and integrate at a pace your body can actually hold. Sessions might include hands-on fascia work, breath and movement practices, and guided attention to sensation, always tailored to what you need that day. Whether you're carrying chronic stress, recovering from burnout, working through trauma, or simply want a deeper relationship with your own body, I'm here to help you move from surviving to actually feeling at home in yourself.

Why I am a Good Fit for You

I come to this work through two decades in various Mental Health spaces, an MA in Counseling/Psychology, and a lot of my own lived experience of learning to actually inhabit my body rather than just manage it. I believe healing is less about being fixed and more about becoming your own steward, the same way you'd tend a garden: with patience, the right conditions, and trust in what's already alive underneath. Outside the practice room, I run Seeded Gardens, a land stewardship business that also does youth workforce development, so caring for land and caring for people are pretty tangled together for me. I have a home herbal and garden practice of my own, and I think a lot about ecology, not just as metaphor but as a real teacher for how nervous systems, families, and communities heal. If any of this resonates, whether it's the ecological lens, the Clinical background, or just the belief that your body already knows how to move toward wholeness, I'd love to be part of your process.
