Adverse childhood experiences can be stored in our bodies and in our unconscious/subconscious minds, driving our behaviors and affecting our natural impulses that allow us to thrive. My clients seek freedom from out-dated mental and bodily reactions derived from these past experiences and/or traumatic events. They want their choice restored when making decisions, for cultivating and sustaining relationships, and in creating a meaningful life. I’m an advance student of Somatic Experiencing™,a body-based therapy for healing adverse developmental issues brought on by traumatic events, helping to restore a sense of safety and freedom-of-choice in individuals of all walks of life. I incorporate different psychotherapeutic methods including creative expression, humanistic, and transpersonal psychology. Having experienced the healing power of Somatic Experiencing™ first hand, I know how important it is to access the body’s wisdom when healing the psychology of the whole person.
