Working Together

 

I’ve learned that healing happens in relationship—with our own self, with the presence of another, in the web of human community, the unseen worlds, and with the wild and tended earth. I offer a compassionate, gentle relationship along your healing path, supporting your innate wholeness, inner wisdom, and reconnection to the web of relationships.

I am a chaplain, spiritual care guide, and somatics practitioner. I offer compassionate, gentle support and ritual for rites of passage and major life changes, including end-of-life, grief and loss, trauma healing, psychedelic expanded states of consciousness, life’s celebrations and new beginnings.

I offer guidance in learning trauma informed rituals and practices. In our sessions, we may bring mindful listening to the body, emotions, breath, imagery, memory, body language, parts of self, relationships, nature, ancestors, and your personal connection to spirituality. With mindfulness, we have the opportunity to deepen relationship, insight, and agency in the present moment. When appropriate, I offer healing touch as part of our work together.

My work is influenced by the Hakomi method, Relational Somatic Healing, Biodynamic Craniosacral, IFS/Parts Work, and the Work That Reconnects, as well as Spiritual Direction, Eco-Chaplaincy, social and environmental justice movements, animist earth-based ritual, and Buddhist practice. I believe that true healing and change happen when we work to break down systems of oppression that affect both us as individuals and our communities..

I offer 60-minute sessions, available online or in person, as well as half-day and full-day ceremonies in the San Francisco Bay Area and Yachats, Oregon. Depending on location and availability, I may also be able to travel to you for in-person retreats.
