INDIVIDUALIZED SESSIONS

"The body speaks what words cannot."

​

~Shawnee Thornton Hardy

WHAT IS YOGA THERAPY?

Yoga Therapy comes from the lens of the whole-person when working towards health and wellbeing. It emphasizes the mind-body-environment relationship and aims to support individuals in finding MBE balance through practices such as asana, movement, pranayama, meditation, chanting, visualization, lifestyle and proper nutrition. Through these practices you develop tools to live in the world in a more embodied, present and connected way. 

​

WHAT IS AYURVEDA?

Ayurveda is the sister science of yoga. Ayu (life) and veda (knowedge) - "the knowledge of life". Ayurveda is a philosophy and approach to wellness that integrates food and lifestyle as medicine for healing. Alignment with nature & embodying the elements of nature within ourselves so we can re-connect to our true nature.

​

WHAT IS SOMATIC EXPERIENCING?

Somatic Experiencing is a body-based approach to healing from unmanaged stress and trauma. SE was developed by Peter Levine and emphasizes a bottom up approach to healing. SE works with the physiology of the body in order to complete incomplete defensive responses, unlock thwarted survival energy, work with healthy aggression, develop healthy boundaries, build a sense of self empowerment and reconnect to your life force energy and your true essence.

​

WHAT IS SOMATIC TOUCH?

Somatic Touch is a touch-based therapy that can access the more implicit or early developmental trauma stored in the body. Touch is our very first language so it has the ability to access pre-verbal experiences - listening and communicating through the body. Through an empowered process, the client and touch therapist work together to negotiate boundary and self-agency and build a felt sense of safety in the body in the present that may not have been experienced in the past.

I work with children and teens with diverse needs including neurodiversity, disability, sensory processing challenges, motor impairments, health issues, anxiety, depression and trauma. I serve as a co-regulator and supportive facilitator in helping your child learn tools to connect to their bodies, manage big emotions, self-regulate, recover from stress and trauma and build capacity and resilience. My aim is in helping children and teens build self-esteem, self-love and self-agency so they can pilot their own planes and move through the world with more confidence, curiosity and connection.
