🤗APPROACH🤗
My work focuses on the integration of mind and body through a collaborative journey of somatic and Jungian-inspired art therapies.
For Example:
To integrate mind and body for a mindful living experience, we may explore past experiences (physically, mentally and emotionally). The goal through the integration of mind and body is to invite the unconscious thoughts, behaviors and relationship patterns to our conscious awareness. We are also inviting awareness around body sensations and how they may correlate with an emotional experience and/ or perception. Sometimes we disassociate from an experience due to the emotional experience being overwhelming, painful and/ or traumatic. Our intention is to move through stuck trauma that may reside in our pain (emotional and physical) in order to heal and live satiated. I believe in loving ourselves in our darkest spaces; embracing the strength of our shadows; and redirecting that negative energy toward a resilient, empowered Self. I support my clients in exploring their relationship with their behavior. Through compassionate guidance, they are able to view and better understand their unconscious intentions. Creating the space for change and a more conscious, intentional, and nourishing life.
🫶🏼TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE🫶🏼
My training bridges the multifaceted relationships of movement, therapy, performance and psychology. I have worked clinically within intensive and outpatient eating disorder treatment programs as a behavioral health practitioner and facilitated groups such as dance/movement therapy, somatic healing and awareness, gardening and nurturing the body, meditation through active imagination and meal groups.
