Body-based healing and intuitive support for real-life change.
Trauma-aware · Culturally responsive · Consent-led · 1:1 sessions

What I Do

I facilitate a process of honoring and listening to the nervous system, releasing stored stress, and reconnecting with your inner guidance. My work blends somatic practices, including felt-sense tracking, grounding, and micro-movement, with my energetic and intuitive gifts to help you integrate insight with embodied, lasting change.

My Approach

Trauma-informed and decolonized.
I honor your lived experience and your pace. There is no forced retelling here. Choice and consent come first, always.

Justice-rooted.
We name how systemic racism, capitalism, patriarchy, and colonization shape our health, our bodies, and our relationships. We center ancestral wisdom and collective healing practices alongside practical tools for everyday life.

Inclusive and culturally attuned.
All identities and backgrounds are welcome here. Sessions are adapted to your needs, your values, and what feels right for you.

The Frameworks I Draw From

The following theories and traditions inform how I show up in every session. They are not rigid scripts but living lenses that help me meet you where you are.

Decolonized & Ancestral Frameworks

Western psychology does not hold all the answers, and it was never designed with all bodies in mind. This work draws on ancestral wisdom, collective healing traditions, and an understanding of how colonization, racism, and patriarchy live in the body and shape our nervous systems. Healing here is not only personal but also relational, cultural, and rooted in something much older than any clinical model.

Polyvagal Theory
Dr. Stephen Porges & Deb Dana

Polyvagal Theory maps the three states of the autonomic nervous system, safety, mobilization, and shutdown, and how we move between them in response to our environment. Deb Dana's clinical application of this work helps us understand that our nervous system responses are not flaws or failures but brilliant survival strategies. In sessions, we work with the nervous system as it is, not against it.

Gestalt Theory

Rooted in present-moment awareness, Gestalt theory invites us to notice what is alive right now in the body, the emotions, and the relational field. Rather than analyzing the past from a distance, we bring it into the present where it can be met, felt, and transformed. This approach honors the whole person and the wisdom that emerges when we stop talking about experience and start moving through it.

“The body, not the thinking brain, is where we experience most of our pain, pleasure, and joy, and where we process most of what happens to us. It is also where we do most of our healing, including our emotional and psychological healing.”

Resmaa Menakem – My Grandmother’s Hands
“Making peace with your body is your mighty act of revolution. It is your contribution to a changed planet where we might all live unapologetically in the bodies we have.”

Sonya Renee Taylor – The Body Is Not an Apology
“To deny the life of our emotions and the process of feeling is to deny how alive we are and how inseparably bound up we are with one another.”

Prentis Hemphill - What It Takes to Heal: How Transforming Ourselves Can Change the World
"Metabolizing big ideas and emotional realities doesn’t necessarily happen all at once; but, when we honor the process and make it our practice to continually ask these questions over and over again, change inevitably happens within and around us."
