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 stressors experienced very early in life as well as those experienced later in life. I am trained to work with those experiencing effects of 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 experiences that cause stress to the individual that may be stuck and stored in their body. The end result is that my clients learn a new language, the language of their own body. Learning the language of their own body helps them to recognize feelings as they occur and helps them to better negotiate disruptions in real time.
I work with adults of all ages and abilities through different stages of their process.
