I am dedicated to aligning with the parts of people that want to grow. To meet these ends, I bring kindness, curiosity and even a sense of humor to the aspects of each person that may be afraid or resistant to growth and change.

- Guided Imagery– providing suggestion and image to help you access inner knowledge, often creating lasting internal resources and new ways of relating to challenges.
- Somatic Practices– includes movement, exploration of postures, and the use of self-contact.
