Why I am Passionate About Supporting You
​
My journey
​
I came to this work through my own healing journey. After several years of being in constant motion (flight response), chasing dreams, travelling around the world, pushing my bodies capacity, often unaware of over riding my system's needs; I was eventually met with a series of stressful events and losses that brought my nervous system to its limit. I found myself in burnout, struggling with anxiety, pain, grief, and fatigue.
I needed more practices that rooted me in stillness to allow my body to catch up and integrate. When I discovered Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, something inside me finally exhaled. Being met with that level of compassionate presence and attunement, helped my system remember what safety and softness felt like. From there, healing slowly began. Craniosacral & Somatic Therapy seemed to encompass the essence of all my studies and lifelong devotion to understanding how body, psyche, spirit, and nature are deeply interconnected. As well as how trauma and early attachment wounds live in the body, waiting for safety and support to unwind and heal.
I know how scary it is to go through major events or health scares, and have the body say no, shut down and not be able to function as it once did. There is a 'new normal' that can be found, where at first can be challenging or feel limited, yet can blossom into a much more in-tune, regulated, aligned and whole version of self.
​
​What I Believe About Healing
​
​I believe the body holds an innate intelligence and a natural movement toward balance. When we slow down, listen deeply, ALLOW and bring kindness to our experience, rather than trying to fix or force change, healing happens naturally. Our work isn’t about perfection or performance, it’s about cultivating presence, safety, and connection. When we can meet ourselves and our feelings with the same compassion we’d offer a loved one, the nervous system softens and the possibility for real transformation opens. Like nature itself we are always moving toward wholeness.
​
​My Intention
​
​It is my intention is to offer a safe, sacred, and compassionate space where you can come home to your body and reconnect with your natural rhythms of wellness, purpose, joy and play. And make space, allow expression, for all of the suppressed, un-expressed feelings and experiences that may be stuck inside, waiting for a felt sense of safety to finally release.
Like the ocean, which I am named after, and who is my lifelong teacher, I trust in the body’s tides of release and renewal. It would be an honour to walk beside you as you find your way back to yourself.​

How I Work
​We are hardwired for connection, but in order to repair the connection that was lost, interrupted or violated in our past we need safe spaces to be seen, heard and held in. What makes my practice unique is the integration of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) a subtle, hands-on approach, with Somatic Counselling and Relational Somatic Therapy (RST). They can be done separately or together. If you prefer to talk seated without any contact and work somatically we can do that. Alternatively, while you rest on the table, we may engage in gentle dialogue, listening to the places in your body that are ready to be seen, understood, or released. This combination of touch and somatic exploration supports the body in processing what words alone may not reach, especially early and developmental trauma, chronic stress, and relational wounding. Nothing is forced or pushed. We move at a pace your system can safely hold, guided by your own inner wisdom. Over time, you may notice more ease in your body, clarity in your emotions, and a greater sense of safety and connection with yourself and others. Many clients describe feeling more like themselves again, softer, more in their body, grounded, and alive.
