Services
Somatic therapy
Somatic therapy integrates mind-body awareness to release trauma-held tension through nervous system regulation techniques. This approach helps clients with anxiety, chronic stress, and identity-based trauma develop self-compassion while rebuilding bodily trust. Sessions combine Internal Family Systems and Somatic Experiencing frameworks for holistic healing.
EMDR counseling
EMDR therapy reprocesses traumatic memories using bilateral stimulation while integrating somatic awareness. This evidence-based method treats complex trauma, medical trauma, and negative self-beliefs through structured protocols that prioritize nervous system stability and embodied resourcing techniques during each session.
Bodywork sessions
Trauma-informed bodywork combines connective tissue massage and neuromuscular therapy to release physical tension patterns. Sessions prioritize client autonomy through consent-led touch while addressing chronic pain, stress, and nervous system dysregulation using customized pressure and positioning techniques.
Craniosacral therapy
Craniosacral therapy uses subtle touch to optimize cerebrospinal fluid flow and release nervous system tension. This non-invasive modality addresses migraines, chronic pain, and trauma symptoms through fully clothed sessions that promote deep relaxation and systemic regulation without forceful manipulation.
Group counseling
Identity-affirming group sessions create collective healing spaces for LGBTQIA2S+, neurodivergent, and marginalized individuals. Offerings include Body Liberation Circles and nervous system regulation groups that combine structured activities with organic peer support in virtual and Portland-based settings.
