Pain Relief & Movement Ease with Feldenkrais
A series of individual hands-on sessions using touch and movement, addresses your unique concerns related to pain and movement activities. Benefits include relief of chronic pain injuries, better relaxation and reduction in tension, improved mobility and sports/work performance. Generally clients come for a series of sessions to address specific concerns. Sessions are geared towards creating longterm, lasting change of ingrained patterns, and learning self-care skills for longterm relief.

Somatic Psychotherapy for Emotional Ease
Many times early life patterns, protection from grief, loss, trauma, accident or injury, are held or expressed in the body, and benefit from psychotherapy that integrates mind and body together. Somatic psychotherapy recognizes that change happens when you are safe in both mind and body, and so that you can feel better emotionally and more comfortable in yourself, handle challenge better, feel more confident with yourself and others. My work is influenced by my extensive training over the last 14 years in mind-body approaches including Focusing, Psychophysical Therapy, Sensorimotor Therapy, Hakomi Somatics, and Intentional Touch, as well as other cutting edge understandings of the mind-body relationship. Most recently I have been training in Intensive Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy for psychophysiological issues with researchers and psychiatrists at the Center for Emotions and Health in Halifax, Canada.
In addition to being a Feldenkrais practitioner, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I offer Somatic Psychotherapy for health anxiety and addressing mind/body issues in chronic pain, people with anxiety and trauma, and for couples. My approach is culturally sensitive and social justice oriented.
