I support a diverse clientele and bring a compassionate, responsive approach that acknowledges the significant role that stress and trauma can play in a person's experience of their body. I provide holistic assessment, a tailored yet flexible treatment plan and, if desired, self-care recommendations. Communication, consent and collaboration are central to my therapeutic practice. I enjoy facilitating somatic connection, balance and function for people on terms that make sense to them.
