Welcome!

I hold space for groups and individuals in the process of integrating personal and collective trauma, grief and transition. I offer my witness, accompaniment, intuition, knowledge and experience to facilitate you in creating the space to discover what your body remembers about integration and wholeness.

I offer Somatic Experiencing, Grief companioning and ritual guidance. You can learn more about my work specific to miscarriage and infant loss at Hawthorn Grief Care.

In our work together, I support your healing from traumatic stress. This includes shock trauma, developmental trauma, vicarious trauma, generational trauma, systemic trauma. Trauma can be personal, collective, generational or the trauma of oppression (also known as systemic trauma). You don’t need to disclose the specifics of your traumatic experiences in Somatic Experiencing work for it to help you work towards integration and healing. 

Building the capacity to be with and integrate our grief and trauma has the benefit of creating space not only for our own lives but for past and future generations. Many people are surprised to learn that we all DO have the option to feel fully present and alive, to experience joy and pleasure and to grow our connection with ourselves and others. 

All of my offerings are grounded in a feminist, anti-pathology, fat positive, queer and trans affirming, anti-racist, trauma-informed, anti-oppression, disability justice and collective liberation framework. In order to create a world where we are all free, safe, and can live with dignity and respect, we must engage in individual healing work and collective action for positive social change.
