In a one-on-one or couples session to heal relational trauma, break free from intergenerational patterns, and build emotional intelligence through nervous system regulation, modern relationship skills, and compassionate talk therapy. As a nervous system and relationship specialist, I integrate co-regulating touch and trauma-resolution therapy to help you move beyond the fight-flight-freeze-fawn cycle, so you can build your capacity for lasting regulation and a deeply fulfilling connection with yourself and your partner.

Words to connect to:
“Trauma is not what happens to you, but what happens inside you as a result of what happens to you.” Bessel Van Der Kolk (author of The Body Keeps The Score) This resonates with me because it gets to the heart of my work ~ nervous system rewiring, this involves working through survival states like fight, flight, freeze or fix which are defensive parts that can control our lives.
"Intimacy is not for the faint of heart. It requires a level of emotional courage and regulation many of us were never taught" Terry Real. We are not taught modern relationship skills or how our brains and bodies do what they do. One of my strengths is helping clients develop the emotional skills and nervous system capacity to navigate intimacy, vulnerability and hard conversations in healthy ways.
I connect because:
I teach people how to connect with their mind and bodies in new ways because life is too short to wake up feeling hopeless and lonely.
