I am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner™. I have trained with Dr. Peter Levine, Kathy Kain and Stephen Terrel (and others) to develop my skills. I continue to assist all levels of SE Programs including Master workshops such as Eye of the Needle 1 and 2. I am able to assist clients in moving energies from traumas experienced very early in life (early developmental trauma) as well as those experienced later in life. I am trained to work with those experiencing effects of trauma/stressors that occurred over long periods of time and those that occurred in a moment in time.
I have earned certificates and assisted trainings in Somatic Practice™, Somatic Resilience and Regulation™.
I am not a licensed therapist as currently in California the use of these modalities within my scope does not require a license. I use multiple modalities of movement along with touch to assist clients in the renegotiation of the effects of trauma that may be stuck and stored in their body. The end result is that my clients learn a new language. Learning the language of their own body helps them to recognize feelings and helps them to better negotiate disruptions in real time.
I work with adults of all ages and abilities through different states of their process.
I find a tremendous amount of joy in providing support to my clients so that they are able to live their fullest life and to enjoy being a human being in a human body.
