Individual Counseling

My work with individuals blends talk therapy with somatic and energetic practices, rooted in the Core Energetics tradition. I tailor each session to your unique needs - whether we explore through movement, breath, emotion, or conversation, everything is an invitation, never a requirement.

We begin with the understanding that the body holds our story. Protective patterns - like tension, numbness, overthinking, or people-pleasing - often formed early in life to help us survive. When those strategies stop serving us, they can block connection, aliveness, and authenticity.

In our work, we gently bring awareness to what’s underneath - feelings, needs, truths that may have been buried. We may use expressive exercises, grounded movement, or breathwork to release stuck energy and reconnect with your core self.

This process supports you in moving from protection to connection - back to your natural capacity for presence, love, and vitality.

 My work with couples is grounded in Embodied Relationship Mentoring (ERM), a unique approach that integrates body awareness, emotional presence, and conscious connection. I support couples who feel disconnected, caught in repetitive patterns, or navigating betrayal, transition, or loss of intimacy.

In our work together, we slow things down. Rather than staying in the surface-level “story” or trying to communicate better from a reactive place, we begin by listening to the body. Much of what drives conflict lies beneath words - held in tension, breath, posture, and unspoken longing. We explore how protective patterns like blame, withdrawal, or caretaking may be defending younger, more vulnerable parts within. I help each partner identify what they are truly fighting for: to feel safe, seen, valued, or free.

Using experiential exercises, breath work, movement, and dialogue, I guide couples from reactivity to presence, from defending to expressing, from separation to shared experience. We work with the nervous system, not against it. Together we build the capacity to move through conflict and difference in a way that restores empathy, play, intimacy, and trust.
