I am so glad you are here looking for your next nourishing step on this journey called life. Discovering deeper into who you are and peeling away what needs to move on to created more ease and flow, Mette-Love and kindness for yourself that than can spread to others with flow, ease and joy by stepping into your authentic Self. Trauma holds us back from stepping into our Selves. Trauma is part of life. It happens to all of us. It is not the event but how our nervous system manages the event. I am here to support your journey into self discovery. I started my journey working on creating a degree in Holistic Healing in the early 80's. I intuitively knew the mind & body were dancing through life together as well as the spiritual part of who we are and how this affect us mentally. Today this is a given but not in the 80's. I have my MSW and have worked in many venues in this as a Social Worker: adolescents homeless, family systems, school systems, removing children from home through Child Protective services in San Diego working in the court Systems, the Adult Mentally ill and Domestic Violence and Addiction. After my twin daughters were born I started a new path as a Yoga teacher and Personal Trainer & Group Fitness over 20 years ago. I was given the gift of learning how movement calms the nervous system and discharge as well as breath and meditation. Through yoga I discovered Thai Bodywork and became a highly trained Thai Therapist. Through this modality I could feel "hold" patterns in the body. I received my massage license in 2012. This started creating more questions around the mind body connection as I could feel resistance in the body. Ortho-Bionomy used principles to explore this deeper. The magic happened when I became a Watsu Practitioner and could feel the body unwind in the water as I held the body and moved the body in water at the bodies temperature, unraveling in the nervous system was happening. It then brought me into womb healing work to understand how to support another journey from the very beginning of life! How could I not seek out Somatic Experiencing as my background naturally called me into this work. Breathwork has been a beautiful way to add healing and exploration coming into supporting the healing journey. I have been blessed living in Sedona using my knowledge through my education weaving in Energy work as well. It is all moving energy into a flow. The most important place we start is connecting and build safety so we can support the awakening into Self.
