Embodied Movement Arts Therapy

This business of being human isn't about being perfect. It can be messy and painful, and it doesn’t move in a straight line. It’s a zigzag that can feel confusing, overwhelming, and complex. I believe in honoring the zigzag and meeting clients where they are at in the divine messiness of their lives and personal journey of self-discovery.

I believe in the healing power of being seen and heard while we are in the process of making meaning of our lived experience. Having a witness who can listen, reflect, and gently guide you in learning how to creatively see and move beyond limiting patterns of thought and behavior can be a valuable partnership. I’m here to be that guide.
