Everyone deserves to feel well in the whole sense of the word, regardless of ability, class, color, age, gender identity, sexual orientation, etc.  I strive to make my practice welcoming and inclusive to anyone and everyone.  I believe in sliding scale pricing, functional movement for your body, and trauma-aware practices that fit your needs.

I trust in the authenticity of the lineages of my training.  I believe in continuing education, learning from my personal practice, as well as my students, and being committed to sharing my knowledge with integrity.  This means I will only teach what I have been taught and I will say “I don’t know” when I don’t know instead of making up an answer.  Being accountable means I will do what I say I will do in a timely fashion, such as providing you with resources, homework, etc. and I will support my clients in whatever way accountability needs to look for them.

It’s easy to get caught up in all or nothing thinking, labeling things about ourselves as either ‘good’ or ‘bad.’ I believe in active curiosity, allowing the information our systems give us to be just that:  information.  We can use this information to build more awareness about ourselves, and with that increased awareness, practice kindness.

I believe your practice should make you feel better physically, mentally, and emotionally.  If your practice is something that you don’t want to do, you will begin to resent it, and then what is the point?  Your self-care practices have to fit in with your schedule, your interests, and your evolving needs or it will become unsustainable.  I believe in supporting my clients in finding this balance.
