I'm a somatic coach with a specialty in sex and relationships. I help people get the love they want and deserve through trauma-informed, experiential tools.
The key to a fulfilling life is having great relationships – particularly intimate ones.
Everyone is looking for love.
Relationships allow us to express our full potential, and yet it’s a source of struggle and pain for most people.
That’s because our closest relationships mimic our relationships with our childhood caregivers and trigger childhood wounds. Our protective ways aren’t always conducive to creating close and connected relationships.
My job is to support you by providing you with relationship enhancing tools. We work to help the empowered adult in you be the one in charge when it comes to relationship choices while honoring the needs of your wounded child.
You deserve to have the life you want, and it’s my joy and privilege to help you get it.
I bring years of experience as a trauma informed body/mind healer, weaved in with my own extensive healing journey which is deeply influenced by sex positivity, body acceptance and the movement wisdom of the body.
I have a BA in Psychology, and extensive training and experience as a counselor and as a Re-evaluation counseling teacher. My journey into the body-mind connection has led me to become a Yoga instructor and a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist and Educator certified through the International Somatic Movement Education and Therapy association.
My journey into Somatics allowed me to infuse my practice with the top trauma healing modalities in the body-psychotherapy world, Somatic Experiencing and Inner Relationship Focusing.
My own personal work involved healing my fraught relationship with my body. In order to learn how to accept my body fully and help others do the same, I trained as an Intuitive Eating counselor. All my offerings are therefore body inclusive and HAES® aligned.
Healing my relationship with my body expanded into healing my relationship with my sexuality and learning how to heal my trauma through pleasure. This work has led me to train with the Somatica® Institute and become a Somatic Sex and Relationship coach and a Somatic Sexologist.
Why is Embodied Acceptance my brand name? Because healing our wounded parts requires the highest level of compassion we can muster. True acceptance is not possible as a mental process solely. It needs to be experienced through the body for it to become truly transformative.
My clients report that my presence embodies unconditional love and acceptance which is what lends them the safety to dive into their process and heal from their deepest wounds.
This is a result of all the work I’ve done in parenting my inner child and loving her fearlessly. It’s my superpower.
