Chronic Pain? Trauma?
Don't just survive. Thrive.
Many of the people who come to my practice are overwhelmed with intense symptoms that severely compromise their lives. Some have already been on heroic medical odysseys, but have found little lasting relief. This is almost always because their nervous systems are dysregulated from past trauma. Until the nervous system is brought back into regulation, the body's innate healing capacities remain hijacked by powerful survival responses. This causes a myriad of symptoms including depression, anxiety, fatigue and chronic pain.
My job as your practitioner is to be an advocate for your body, especially for your nervous system. I specialize in educating people on how to shift their nervous system state from the powerful survival responses of Flight/Fight/Freeze to the state of rest, digest, and relate. I think of this as shifting from Survival to "Thrival." When the body is at ease rather than being stuck in a survival state the body is able to heal and recover from injury and illness and the mind is able to create, enjoy and have empathy for others.
Being able to recognize what nervous system state one is stuck in, and being able to move out of survival states and into relational states is the key to healing from trauma. The modalities in which I have trained, some of which are ancient and esoteric, all specialize in accessing and cultivating this relational embodied state that is what makes us human.
I offer the same hands-on modalities that facilitated my own recovery from years of debilitating pain and dysregulation. I integrate Rolfing Structual Integration, Somatic Experiencing, Biodynamic Cranial Sacral Therapy, Source Point Therapy, The Safe and Sound Protocol and embodied meditation from several lineages into my practice. These modalities work with the underlying patterns that support regulation and capacity by working with sensation, perception and awareness. This integrative approach gets at the root of autonomic nervous system dysregulation and disassociation.
I offer the traditional Rolfing Ten Series as developed by Dr Ida Rolf but also offer individualized Rolfing sessions without commitment to ten sessions. I specialize in addressing chronic pain patterns including fibromyalgia, migraines and back pain. I work with whiplash and injuries from motor vehicle accidents and can bill insurance on most auto accident claims. I address trauma from assaults, accidents, and overwhelming loss and have received specialized training facilitating recovery from anesthesia states and surgery, especially from emergency cesareans. I work with global high activation states of anxiety, depression, and immobilization and can educate clients about "triggers," panic attacks, addictions, and accessing the capacity for self care. I have experience and training working with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder symptoms including flashbacks, night terrors, insomnia, and have worked with military and first responder veterans. I have specialized training in the long term trauma symptoms of autoimmune disease, chronic infections and chronic fatigue. My practice is client centered; if I feel I can't help you I often know someone who can and I cultivate a healing community that includes several local practitioners.
