For me, the most satisfying aspect of this work is watching people grow their foundations based on a solid sense of self. Over time, people feel more at ease in their skin in more situations. They establish greater trust, appreciation, and love for themselves. This internal blossoming also leads to an increased confidence in establishing more satisfying relationships.
I hold a BA from Mills College where I studied music and media arts, and an MA from CIIS in Counseling Psychology with an Emphasis in Somatics. I have completed Level I training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and EMDR. Both EMDR and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy are modalities that specialize in the treatment of trauma.
