I help people identify and heal unresolved triggers and traumas, upgrade from unhelpful patterns,
heal their nervous systems and live with greater ease and joy.
HOW I CAN HELP

Together, let’s work out a plan.
Online and face-to-face sessions

THERAPY WITH ME

Skill
Somatics
Sacred
I offer evidence-based and cutting-edge therapies as well as education and harm reduction programs.
Our work together is outcome oriented, skilfully blending therapeutic modalities to assist you in achieving your therapy goals.
"Somatic" simply means dealing with the body. Somatic healing releases stored stress and trauma from within the body.
"You go deep enough or far out enough in consciousness and you will bump into the sacred".
