I offer a natural, comprehensive, somatic approach to headache, migraine, stress, pain, tension, and trauma. I developed Transcranial Somatic Therapy (tST) in 1970. This protocol calms and resolves headache and migraine pain and its associated symptoms, such as light, sound, and smell sensitivity, nausea, and lethargy. Learn Self-tST as part of the Somatic Headache Care Program for Relief and Prevention. Self-care, hope restoration, and empowerment practices are powerful tools, as taught in The Headache Healer’s Handbook. I offer 1:1 and group sessions online; some in-person sessions.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage helps your body to create or maintain a high functioning immune system. Perhaps you just want to relax, relieve stress and renew while receiving all the benefits of increased vitality. Lymphatic Wellness Therapy is beneficial for healing, for detox and is a wonderful adjunct to any surgery. Internal organ massage has been known to assist with digestive issues, swelling after surgery and general all around well being.

I'm a licensed massage therapist practicing Structural Integration and somatic bodywork. Integrating heart and science into every session, I believe that bodywork, often pursued in relief of pain, can also improve our relationship with our bodies and deepen our experience in the world around us. I bring an awareness of the educational, experiential process of receiving bodywork, making lasting change through awareness and embodiment, in addition to very effective technique. Originally from New York, I trained at The Swedish Institute in New York City (a 1226-hour program) and at IPSB in San Diego.

Attuned to how energy works, I believe that healing starts with YOU and your choice to empower yourself with action. Let me help you to facilitate your own healing. Someone once said "commit the action and the mind will follow"! -PEACE-

My ideal client is someone who recognizes that the body heals itself when given appropriate opportunities through bodywork, and also shares and values the philosophy of the body, mind, spirit connection. My sessions are client-centered, and each session is unique. Effective communication is a key component in the therapist-client relationship, and I encourage each client to keep me informed during the session of any modifications they need.
