The art of bringing the softness back within us.
Whatever happened to you, you’re not broken. Working with me is not about fixing you, rather we help restore haromony within and around your body.
My approach to trauma is body centered. The body has the innate capacity to heal, protect, regulate and thrive by itself. Our modern society has us forgetting and neglecting this truth.
As a trauma-informed care practitioner, I believe the answer and healing are not in the story but in the body. I assist you to build on your capacity, not on your wound.
As I also believe in the individual body being part of the collective body and nervous system, I decentralize the clients and their narrative and lean into community, ancestral bodies, society and the cosmos to place us in the larger web of interconnectedness. We’re inevitably linked. As our traumas are interconnected, so is our healing.
Trauma removes our capacity to be in our body. All the healing modalities that are the cornerstones of my work aim to bring wholeness and liveliness in your body. These are:
Touch work or bodywork
Breathing techniques and breathwork
Nervous system regulation and education
Embodiment
