Therapy is about feeling better, moving towards one’s goals and developing deeper awareness. Each person has resources, strengths and answers for their own life. In a therapeutic relationship it’s possible to come into contact with what is present, alive and meaningful in us. My own experience in therapy and many trainings involving somatic, relational and psychodynamic therapies informs my work.

People and trainings that have personally influenced me are:

  • Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen - Body Mind Centering

  • Bill Bowen - Psycho-Physical Therapy

  • Steve Hoskinson / Cynthia Merchant - Somatic Experiencing

  • Dr. Jack Rosenberg & Dr. Beverly Kitaen-Morse - Integrated Body Psychotherapy

I have a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology with a specialty in Somatic Psychology from John F. Kennedy University and undergraduate degree in Psychology from University of California Santa Cruz. I am also a Certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner.
