Uncover the pathway to self-discovery and embodying your authentic truth.
holistic & somatic therapy for women
During times in your life when you’re exhausted, lost, or burned out, it’s common to also feel disconnected. Many women experience a sense of detachment from themselves, their loved ones, and the world around them due to past wounds, trauma, stress, or the expectations of others.
Finding the way back to yourself is possible and you don’t have to do it alone.
I’ll guide you on a transformative path of self-exploration, profound inner healing, and deep connection to your body. You can come exactly as you are to somatic therapy. All of you is welcome and accepted here.
therapy that honors
all of you
Somatic therapy centers the mind-body connection and views your body’s wisdom as a powerful tool for healing. In sessions, we’ll use a combination of embodiment work and talk therapy to help you reconnect with your body and learn to listen to her as a guide for your healing.
You’ll be free to explore all of your complex identity and the ways it intersects with your culture(s), gender, family, and how you move through the world. Whether you’re overwhelmed, hurting, or feeling lost amidst what’s expected of you, therapy is a space for you to heal as you discover and celebrate your true self.
In this FREE workbook, you'll unravel your relationship with the hustle and learn exactly how you stand in opposition to the rest your mind and body truly need. My hope is that throughout these pages, you'll uncover insights into yourself and the messages you face, and perhaps even reclaim a little piece of your life that's been lost in the relentless pursuit of productivity.
Nurture your authentic self at Spiral & Bloom. Somatic psychotherapy supports you in uncovering the real you and reconnecting to yourself. No explanations necessary. Here, you are free to be yourself & heal yourself.
find yourself &
embody your truth
Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (MFC 121155),
Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner & GYROTONIC® Trainer
My own personal lived experiences have cultivated a deep understanding of the multi-faceted identities and roles that individuals embody. I believe in creating a space where you feel seen and heard, without the burden of explaining yourself. That's the beauty of somatic therapy – it goes far beyond spoken words, so you can find lasting and life changing healing in your day to day life.
As a therapist and healer, I possess a unique ability to sense and perceive the unspoken stories that manifest through the body and energy of those I work with. I am attuned to the subtle expressions that you may not voice out loud. This allows me to guide your self-discovery and help you gain a profound understanding of your healing.
I embrace the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit in the healing process, and use a comprehensive range of techniques and support to holistically address your needs.
