Neuroscience & Psychoneuroimmunology Education
What we believe and understand about our symptoms has an impact on our embodied experience.
Learning to make sense of your symptoms in a different light can change your experience of them in real time.
Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT)
This evidence-based system of psychological techniques helps the brain unlearn persistent pain and repattern neural pathways.
Certified at the Mastery Level, I offer collaborative guidance and practice that accounts for your whole self and story.
Mindfulness & Compassion
Healing can feel like a test we’re failing anytime symptoms appear — and the pressure to control or eliminate them can keep us stuck.
These practices can help you step out of fixing mode and self-judgment, and meet yourself and others with greater presence and kindness — even in the midst of pain.
Emotional Awareness & Expression Therapy (EAET)
Depending on our life story, we may learn that certain emotions are unsafe or unacceptable. Pain can become their messenger.
This work helps you listen in, befriend the full range of emotions, and move forward with more freedom, hope, and joy.
Nervous System Regulation
A hyperalert, oversensitized, or dysregulated nervous system keeps threat physiology and stress responses (fight, flight, freeze, fawn, flop) activated, eliciting pain and other symptoms.
You’ll learn to engage your relaxation response to shift from survival mode to resilience and well-being.
Graded Exposure to Movement
Fear and avoidance can reduce your confidence in moving freely and comfortably.
With visualizations, affirmations, and small steps you’ll gently regain strength, flexibility, and trust in your body, so you can return to the activities you love.
Narrative Practices
The stories we tell—about our bodies, our pain, our past—shape how we understand ourselves and what healing means.
We’ll explore illness as part of a larger, unfolding story that can open new possibilities for agency, creativity, and healing.
Self-Trust & Discernment
We get to reclaim our agency and sovereignty instead of our pain, or pain experts, making decisions for us.
With discernment you’ll exit the revolving door of medications and treatments, and pare down to what’s truly helpful.
Grief Tending
For many of us, symptoms arise during or after experiences of loss that we were expected to just “get over.”
As we honor the full spectrum of human experience, our nervous system can shift from protection to integration.
Supportive Boundaries
As caring people, we want to be good to others. And, people-pleasing can get in the way of meeting our needs — building resentment and eroding our inner trust.
Rooting in your values, you’ll learn how to set kind boundaries that honor your worthiness and create the space and peace you need to heal and thrive.
Restorative Rest
Intentional rest is a radical and tender act of care — especially in a world that asks us to push through and override our needs. This practice invites you to step out of urgency and into a gentler rhythm, not to escape your experience, but to meet it with presence.
Through deep listening, you’ll soften your pace and replenish your bodymind.
Joy Reclamation
We’ll identify what brings you peace and pleasure, and help you bring that into your everyday life, even if it sounds impossible.
As you expand your capacity for joy, you’ll restore the energy and vitality you need to heal.
