About me
My somatic journey began as a passion for creative movement. This led to a deep curiosity about the body. I trained to be a Registered Massage Therapist, and have been in professional practice for 16 years.
In recent years I have augmented my practice by studying trauma therapy with Somatic Experiencing International. A desire to be of service to people as they approach the end of their lives led me to train as an End-of-Life Doula with Douglas College. Over the past few decades I have studied various forms of yoga, and have over 1200 hours of formal training as well as a history with dance.
I utilize a ‘whole person’ approach to treatment. My work is measured, focusing on attunement to my clients therapeutic process. My practice has a foundation of informed consent and respect for boundaries. I aim to empower my clients whenever possible.
As a member of the College of Complementary Health Professionals of BC, I am regulated to provide a high standard of care. I continue to pursue studies in my field and stay current with emerging research and important cultural shifts.
I find fulfillment walking my dogs in the woods, working on my micro-farm, and in my relationships in my small community.
