I'm a trauma-informed Somatic Coach who helps people bridge the gap between their conscious thinking minds and their subconscious through learning the language of the body. I ran my own business for seven years as a corrective exercise coach, yoga instructor, and wellness educator. My most passionate work, during that time, involved helping clients gain more access to pain-free movement, and in turn changing their perceptions of their bodies. I came into the world of somatic therapy through my own desire to heal past traumas, and I came to a deep understanding that the mind-body psychology I was learning was the other side of the coin to the work I had previously been doing in the wellness industry. Somatic Healing provided a new lens through which I ve been able to experience healing and growth that I never believed was possible, and because of these experiences I decided to pursue this work myself.
