MY STORY.

I began my own healing journey in my 30’s & after trying many traditional (and fringe) methods to soothe latent triggers from old trauma in ways that changed my real life problems...

I still felt stuck. 

While therapy helped me understand & heal Trauma, it also left me feeling in some ways like my fate was sealed. I didn’t get the orientation towards making real changes in my life that I wanted. I needed tools I could use by myself to shift dynamics in real time. I also wanted something faster and honestly… maybe sexier? It felt disappointing that self healing was so dry.

I was exhausted by the list of ‘healthy’ communication strategies and super human qualities that I needed to spend my life aspiring toward. I just wanted to feel like myself. I wanted to just wake up feeling ok everyday. I didn’t want to trade an exciting, erotic, deep life experience for something ‘healthy’ either. I have always known the the hardest parts of my personality (my shadow) are the flip sides of my greatest qualities. I wanted something that felt like harvesting more of me, not erasing. My experience as an adult was already so full of trying to need less.

I started to explore my options. I knew my main problem was that I couldn't control my trigger responses or listen to my intuition when I needed it most.  So I was looking for a nervous system regulation method that matched my personality and style. I found Embodiment to be the most effective and quickest method to soothing my nervous system (so that I can make values centered moves in real time) and tapping into my intuition.

My interpretation of embodiment is simply connecting with an ability that you were born with. A soothing essential nature of self regulation and self attunement that you have always possessed and can tap into at any moment. I became certified in Embodiment Coaching through the School of Embodied Arts based in Queensland, Australia. I have created my core curriculums, through the lens of both my own experiences and the stories of the many men & women I have worked with. My background in education heavily supports my client work. I hold an M.Ed. degree and five education certifications in my state. My background in exceptional education and working with traits of giftedness often helps me build connections for my clients. 

MY VISION.

The energy needed to manage our households, families and amazing careers is masculine. And most of us are using a form of masculine energy that's more of a judgmental task master than a loving father. However our entire culture pretty much runs on a toxic form of masculine energy. A unique part of my work is helping people mature and work with a form of masculine depth that they might have seen modeled before. I can help you develop the part of you that can hold your own emotions, see the bigger picture and wait with intention.

The energy needed for a deep romantic connection, a lifelong friend, or making a child feel deeply seen though is FEMININE. The whole world wants us to forget how receive, intuit, feel and live with our bodies instead of against them. Even the feminine energy we see in art and media is often needy, broken and rages a path of emotional destruction. Mature feminine energy is what our Earth and our bodies need, now more than ever. 

Embodiment work unlocks a natural desire to seek support and deep connection through soothing the nervous system. Energy work, as I teach it, creates an inner balance of masculine and feminine. 

Finally, Reset is a course I created so that people can see immediate results and the opportunity for new paths forward in life and relationships. So much of the online space promotes changes that I personally think are too big and not necessary. Reset is helping you find that middle ground with one immediate point of relief in your relationships and habits each day. What's possible for you in 30 days?
