About

My ideal client is the courageous woman who knows she is capable of more but is currently navigating a significant life transition, becoming an empty nester, shifting careers, or recovering from a divorce. You are deeply inquisitive, often sacrificing your own needs as you carry the emotional weight of your relationships. You know you're carrying unresolved emotional baggage because it shows up not just as anxiety or stress, but literally in your body as chronic pain, tension, or fatigue. You are tired of pushing through the pain and desperately want to understand why your system is holding onto distress. My practice is built around the profound mind-body connection. With two decades of experience as a massage therapist, I have a unique understanding of how stress, tension, and unresolved issues are physically stored. I use a strong somatic awareness focus, drawing from psychodynamic to help you trace emotional patterns back to their roots and truly heal.
