As a Body-Centered Therapist, I specialize in Whole-Body learning through Breath and Movement. The body remembers and can free up energy for more aliveness. You can find your passion for being "really alive".

As human beings, we exhibit a "fixed muscular pattern". This determines, in part, how we relate to ourselves and to others. Blocking feelings of any nature can have a crippling effect on us and may result in holding stress or tension in our bodies. When we suppress emotions, we often suppress breathing. As a Body-Centered Therapist, I help your presence by freeing emotions, accessing stuck energy, freeing tension and opening the organic flow of energy in your body.

My greatest contribution is calling forth your radiant aliveness and facilitating your quest for expressing your essence in the world. I have a passion for opening hearts. I have a gentle approach and I work with your breath gently to awaken your energy. The atmosphere of my workshops is comfortable and alive with sound, movement, music and process. I want to help clients find a comfortable place within their bodies so that they can experience more inner ease and flow. I also want to help them to find essence and expand into their full potential.

The client was a 15 year-old girl; angry, depressed, overweight young female who exhibited depression. She agreed to learn some breathing exercises and presence with the underlying fear, which was creating tension. This fear was also contributing to shallow breathing, tiredness, and a depressed mood. I taught her how to expand into her breath, open up to more flow, breathe through the fear and express her sadness. I asked her to "open up to an inner search and wonder." After this exercise, she drew a treasure map of her experience. In it, was a beautiful sun, fields, and open space. She was wildly riding a horse through an open field. She exhibited a glow and reported to me that she felt something "turn on" inside.
