Welcome to my practice website.
​
I specialize in somatic practices that support NERVOUS SYSTEM CARE, well-being, and self-awareness.
​
My focus is on supporting clients in deepening self-knowledge, processing chronic stress and trauma, navigating life transitions—such as post-migration adjustments or seasonal affective challenges—and providing neurodiversity-affirming therapy and coaching.
​
The key aspects of the process when working with me include exploring a felt sense of inner safety, increasing embodied self-awareness, cultivating accuracy in our internal felt sense, reconnecting with your natural rhythms, and embracing all parts of yourself.
​
I offer one-on-one sessions online worldwide and work with groups and communities as an accessible well-being advocate, activist, and facilitator.
​
​​​I know from my lived experience with complex trauma, immigration, and chronic illness that we all need an internal sense of safety, genuine support, and commitment to embark on a journey of recovery, change, and healing.
​
Connecting with our sensations and feelings is not always easy. For a long time, I felt disconnected from my body. It took me years to understand that dissociation was how my nervous system learned to cope and that emotional dysregulation is a manifestation of our body’s physiology responding to unmet psychological and relational needs.
​
​​​​I am a curious lifelong student. In my search for tools for well-being, I discovered yoga and Vipassana meditation, both of which have been part of my life for over 13 years. Working as a therapist and facilitator makes self-knowledge a priority for me. Through trying different therapeutic modalities on myself, I have found that including the body in the process is essential.
​
The practical ethics of yoga constantly remind me of the unified nature of the immanent and the transcendent. My experience as an occupational therapist gives me a scientific drive and emphasizes practical care in daily living.
