A
Lifetime
of
Embodied Practices
gift me with an agility to hold space for individuals, couples, and groups to explore not only a hardship at hand but also what brings my clients to life in order to live into any variety of wild or mundane transition.
I believe challenging times illuminate a path none of us need to travel alone.
While I’m not a therapist or counselor, my practice is therapeutic.
I’ve been teaching experiential embodiment for over two decades.
My work began in social services in the 1990’s when I worked in community health centers, abortion clinics, domestic violence shelters for women, and in rape relief efforts at multiple agencies in Seattle. My work as a sex educator for Toys in Babeland put me on the front edge of a sex positivity movement where I had the opportunity to teach physicians how to better help patients by addressing their own internalized shame about sex. I also had the privilege of launching the LGBTQ health program at The Country Doctor.
Encountering The Body Electric (link?) and (the tantra teacher) wove the sparkly threads of embodiment and eros into the fabric of my work.
In the many years since, I have used all the tools I’ve found along the way to develop my own deep practice of using the body as a laboratory for transformation.
My life’s work is sharing this multitude of frameworks so my clients can slowly and deeply clear their pathway forward.
