About Me
As a somatic coach, I use my training in Organic Intelligence® and Somatic Experiencing®, two neurobiological approaches to health and well-being, to support each client’s needs and goals for healing, transformation, and wholeness. The basis of both of these approaches is the relationship between the coach and the client, a relationship where I offer empathy, attunement, and reflection of support that I see arising from within the client’s own system.
My approach is gentle and pleasant. Sometimes it is profound and moving and other times more light-hearted, depending on what is coming up that day within a given client’s biology. Things proceed at a pace that is comfortable for the client to allow for integration and prevent things from feeling overwhelming. Together we will explore topics that come up in conversation as they arise and we may explore the world around us as well to help ground us in the present moment.
I have had 15+ years working as a nurse practitioner before beginning somatic coaching as a way to work more holistically with people. I am a certified Organic Intelligence® coach after completing a one year intensive training program in 2022. I have found Organic Intelligence® to be profoundly effective and gentle and am continuing my training to further refine my skills. I also completed a 3 year Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner training program in 2019. I am grateful to have received training in both Somatic Experiencing® and Organic Intelligence® and it is a joy for me to work within the framework of each.
