Body-Mind Therapy
Body-Mind Therapy brings together body-based work, therapy, nervous system support, and, when appropriate, psychedelic-assisted therapy. Rather than only treating symptoms or simply talking, we work with your whole person - your history, your body, your patterns, your relationships, and your daily life.
We work with what you know and what you feel. My style is warm, direct, steady, and attuned - I’ll meet you with care and clarity, and I’ll also help you name what’s true, especially when things feel tangled. We work with both the story and the nervous system, building tools you can use outside the room while staying connected to the deeper work underneath.
Over time, this work can help you feel more grounded in your body, clearer in your choices, and steadier in the moments that used to throw you off. Life becomes less about managing symptoms and more about living with greater steadiness, clarity, and self-trust. You may find yourself responding rather than reacting, trusting yourself more, and feeling more present in your relationships and daily life.
Below, you’ll see some the different practices and techniques I draw from, so you can get a feel for what our work together can include.
Trauma Sensitive Yoga
(TC-TSY)
Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TC-TSY) is a gentle, body-based practice developed specifically for people recovering from complex trauma, PTSD, and chronic stress.
Rather than focusing on performance or flexibility, this approach supports you in reconnecting with your body on your own terms—through movement, breath, and present-moment awareness. Yoga shapes, practices and movements can be practiced in session, or on your own.
Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP):
Ketamine-Assisted or Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a powerful approach that combines ketamine—a safe, fast-acting medication—with therapy to support healing and personal growth.
Ketamine can gently shift you into an expanded state of awareness, making it easier to access emotions, soften inner defenses, and explore stuck patterns with greater openness. Combined with therapy, this process can help you gain new insights, release old pain, and reconnect with your inner wisdom.
Parts Work, AKA Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Internal Family Systems (IFS), sometimes called Parts Work, is a powerful, evidence-based approach that helps you connect with the different “parts” of yourself—like the inner critic, the protector, or the wounded child—and build a healing relationship with them.
Instead of pushing these parts away, we invite them in with curiosity and compassion, helping you gently “unblend” from overwhelming emotions and reconnect with the calm, wise presence at your core.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma therapy that helps the brain process painful or overwhelming experiences—so they no longer feel as intense or stuck in the present.
EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (like back-and-forth eye movements, taps, or tones) while we focus on specific memories, sensations, or beliefs. This helps the brain and body reprocess the experience in a new, less distressing way.
Somatics/Embodiment
Somatic and embodiment therapy invites you to reconnect with your body as a source of healing, wisdom, and presence. Whether you’re carrying trauma, feeling disconnected, or longing to feel more alive, this gentle approach supports nervous system regulation and deeper self-trust. Through breath, sensation, and movement, you’ll learn to listen to your body—and begin to feel safe, grounded, and at home within yourself.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to the present moment with compassion, not judgment. It’s not about clearing your mind—it’s about reclaiming your awareness.
For people healing from trauma, mindfulness helps you reconnect with your body, recognize your patterns, and respond with intention instead of reacting automatically.
Over time, this builds inner clarity and a sense of agency—you start to feel like you are the one in the driver's seat again.
