Embodiment Work
Embodiment work supports a person to connect with their body, enabling them to access and process difficult memories, reclaim lost parts of themself, and inhabit the wellspring of information and resources their precious vessel contains.
During these sessions, we attend to experiences one typically ignores. These experiences can be sensations, imagery, memories, thoughts, impulses, feelings, and the like. We simultaneously work with mental structures, such as an inner critic, that keep embodied experiences cut off from awareness. We hold and process all that comes, clearing the way for more wholeness and embodied intelligence.
I draw from my studies and experiential trainings in body-oriented healing methods including Somatic Experiencing, Biodynamic Craniosacral Work, yoga, and mindful awareness training. As a psychodynamically trained therapist, I understand internal psychological structures, historic conditionings, as well as boundaries and safety, all of which play an important role in body-oriented work.
My areas of specialty include, but are not limited to:
overcoming trauma
dissociation
developing intuition and inner guidance
self inquiry and self exploration
addiction and eating disorder recovery maintenance
Embodiment work can be a stand-alone treatment or a complementary adjunctive treatment to ongoing psychotherapy or other healing modalities. I am happy to collaborate with therapists and other clinicians.
