Somatic Therapy and Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
When the nervous system heals, the rest falls into place. ​This approach is supportive for those who are seeking healing, self care or personal growth.
​
Stress and trauma trigger the body's survival response which interrupts the central nervous system (CNS) and the body's ability to regulate itself. The body and nervous system may be operating under a constant state of perceived threat. This can result in continued dis-ease in the body and may be presenting as stress, anxiety, depression, poor health, physical pain or through unhealthy relationship patterns.
​
Healing the nervous system creates new neural pathways and increases grey matter in the brain. These changes translate to a new perception as the subconscious mind and the body learn they are no longer under threat to release old patterns and stories. You can learn to trust that you safe. The nervous system learns through experience to feel ease and integrate the past. The beauty in facing your adversities is allowing them to guide you home. ​
​​Combining Craniosacral therapy (CST), somatic practices and internal family systems also known as parts work provides true and lasting change.
CST is gentle hands on body and energy work that balances the mind, body and spirit through healing the nervous system. You are inherently whole and your body has the capacity to heal. You can release patterns of behavior and tension held within the body's tissue and the central nervous system. CST improves sleep, reduces anxiety, depression and chronic pain.

Ketamine Journeys
Private sessions are offered in a ceremonial setting to create an intentional, safe and sacred healing space. Support with the preparation process along with integration practices cultivate lasting shifts in your life. ​I hold deep respect for the process and believe you are your own teacher, which the medicine illuminates within you. A guided journey allows you to go inward in a supported container to access what is unconscious while surrendering to being held in your process. We are not meant to do it all alone.
The experience is also appropriate for those who feel satisfied with life and are seeking personal growth or an expanded state of consciousness. All are welcome. The process provides new awareness to begin to acknowledge, accept and love the parts which want to awaken within you. Show up with trust and know you are supported in this journey of self discovery. We begin with a call to discuss what is present in your life, the process and complete a brief screening.
Preparation and Integration
In addition to somatic practices, movement and creativity are the most influential preparation and integration tools.
Movement is an essential force that empowers the body and mind. Movement releases emotions, unlock new possibilities, releases cortisol, stagnation and cultivate creativity. Movement boosts serotonin, improves mood and fosters harmony in the body. Engaging in movement cultivates stillness in the nervous system.
Creativity comes in many forms from clothing, cooking, to problem solving. When children are bored or did not feel safe, they develop creative skills to protect, escape or occupy themselves. The author Ursula Le Guin stated "the creative adult is the child who survived". What was your creative, intuitive calming practice as a child? What is that practice now? Creativity promotes self discovery, regulation, freedom of expression and peace.
