“Walk boldly though your life with an open, broken heart.”
Joanna Macy

Somatic Psychology
I am trained to the Intermediate level in Somatic Experiencing, and I am pursuing certification in Somatic EMDR. With a gentle approach I can help you build your nervous system capacity and resolve symptoms of stress, trauma & burnout. By developing a deeper relationship with your nervous system, you will find that you have more choice in your life.
Climate + Mental Health
Workshops, presentations and groups for parents, educators, activists, journalists, caring professionals & others to sustain showing up for the world in change-making ways. My passion is to support people who are making the world better in their own inner work-so they can sustain their outer work and avoid burnout.
I want a word that means
okay and not okay,
more than that: a word that means
devastated and stunned with joy.
I want the word that says
I feel it all all at once.
The heart is not like a songbird
singing only one note at a time,
more like a Tuvan throat singer
able to sing both a drone
and simultaneously
two or three harmonics high above it—
a sound, the Tuvans say,
that gives the impression
of wind swirling among rocks.
The heart understands swirl,
how the churning of opposite feelings
weaves through us like an insistent breeze
leads us wordlessly deeper into ourselves,
blesses us with paradox
so we might walk more openly
into this world so rife with devastation,
this world so ripe with joy.
