Healing trauma and building stress resilience are one of my pillars of brain health. Creating greater flexibility in the nervous system by working with Vagus Nerve is a gentle and effective way to do that. Our integrative approach to trauma psychotherapy is based upon the underlying premise that the body bears the burden, and the body also holds the wisdom! Healing trauma benefits from a body-based gentle and resilience-based approach that is grounded in Polyvagal Theory. We know that chronic stress, grief, loneliness, chronic challenges with relationships, and unhealed trauma stand in the way of brain health and joy. Learning more about yourself and embodying your own life can help you feel more alive, more connected to yourself and to others and benefit your Brainspan (how long you live with cognitive health) 🧠

As a Functional Brain Health Consultant,  Trauma Therapist, Resilience-Based Polyvagal Clinician + Behavioral Neuroscientist

​​

I believe...

​

..that trauma and stress are root causes of mental & physical illness. 

​

 

…that warm + safe social connection is stabilizing and healing 

​

...that addressing root causes can help prevent and treat anxiety, depression + chronic illnesses like Alzheimer's 

​

...that supporting how you think and feel benefit from using vagal toning and functional medicine strategies

I look forward to hearing from you and learning more about what's important to you.
