Do you feel chronically disconnected or stuck in unhelpful patterns despite "knowing better"? This misalignment might be affecting your physical health, your relationships, your sense of self, and your visions for the future. While many of the strategies you relied upon in early life were both necessary and adaptive, they can also become what hold you back later in life. What if we explore some of your origin stories and update those defaults to better reflect who you are, instead of who you believed you had to be? What if we deepen your self-belonging, thereby strengthening your capacity to connect more effortlessly with others? View 4 Photos With an extensive background in art, food/wine, and movement, I am passionate about the most rooted aspects of being human, especially about what enables us to remain open to connection after being hurt. By learning to tolerate a fuller range of emotions without feeling at their mercy, you'll become more regulated, more empowered, more free, and more alive. I use techniques grounded in neuroscience, attachment theory, somatics, and mindfulness to honor the wisdom in your body and to guide you toward your most authentic self, rewiring your nervous system in a way that builds back trust with yourself and others. Together, we will tap your inner resources for living a life with abundance, presence, and meaning.
