Searching for love, I found the path to freedom.
Learning how to be free was the first step in learning to know love.
-Bell Hooks
My work is informed by a genuine love for connection and a belief in the power of healing in relationships. Few models teach us how to build relationships grounded in true love, honesty, and compassion. We often don’t say the thing we’re afraid to say…and sometimes we don’t even have the words for it. I can help you learn to feel and express yourself more completely, so you can put into practice the actions needed for growth.
Relationships evoke our deepest wounding, which can be messy, painful, and confusing. In an attempt to understand the pain we look for a reason for our suffering—either pointing the finger at ourself or our partner. This misses the deeper truth inside the heart of conflict: we long for connection. Love can be a powerful vessel of transformation. Using the body as our guide I will support you and your partner learning more about how you connect—the ways in which you naturally move towards each other and the ways in which you’re holding back. In order to do this we’ll look at your past, to better understand what shows up in the present. We will also work experientially, to tap deeper patterns living in the unconscious.
Through this work you will come to know yourself and your partner intimately. My invitation is to open your heart, allow yourself to be seen, and embody who you are, authentically. My intention is to do the same, while holding a safe container in which you can explore this vulnerable territory together. As you discover one another, and practice new ways of being together, your relationship blossoms into its full potential.
