Grad school F*cked me up

My body kept getting in the way of meeting the demands of architecture school, so I ignored my body.

The result? I graduated top of my class, but physically and emotionally I was at rock bottom.

A white woman with brown shoulder length hair stands behind a table she built. The table is made of light maple wood and the wood top is glued together in a way that resembles the structure of a leaf.

my body wasn’t the problem

being expected to disregard my body was the problem

The culture of design school taught me if I wasn’t suffering I wasn’t dedicated.
Does this sound familiar? Many industries rely on you being so disconnected from your body that you don’t know what your needs are, and can’t advocate for them.

Just because it’s the norm doesn’t mean that’s how it has to be.
Whether you are wanting to create change in your industry, creative flow, or personal life, I got you. I’m an expert at disrupting the status quo.

my qualifications for

disrupting the status quo:

1. I don’t give a sh*t about what you “should” do or the way things are “supposed” to work. I care about finding the comfiest (or least uncomfy) way to get stuff done.

2. I’m creative as h*ll. When you’ve only ever known one way of doing things it can be really difficult to imagine something different. I’m here to help you create a comfier life within the constraints and context of your current life.

3. I’m curious as f*ck. The places where you get stuck are full of information. I’ll help you turn road blocks into building blocks that get you where you need to go.

  • Item description
  • Somatic Experiencing® (or SE) is a three-year professional training in trauma healing. It's designed for wellness professionals (therapists, coaches, massage therapists, physical therapists, etc.) to understand how stress is stored in, and can be released from, our bodies. Read more about how it works here.

    What sets me apart as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner is my personal commitment to somatic healing. In addition to completing the training I have done over 200 hours of somatic therapy. This work is not just something I preach- it's a practice that has transformed my life.

    Somatic work is complimentary to people who are in individual therapy or have been in cognitive styles of therapy and stopped because they outgrew that style of support.
