Offerings
What is a session like?
Our work together can include a mix of talking, body awareness practices, movement and touch. Depending on what best meets your needs and comfort-level, we can do only bodywork (touch and talk), only coaching (no touch), or a mix of both. You can sign up knowing what you want to do, or we can feel it out together.
Coaching
Can be done in person or virtually
60-80 minutes
A space to explore places you’re feeling stuck, celebrate what’s working, and move toward new ways of being that serve you. We'll work on what feels most present for you each session through talking, imagination, somatic movement and awareness practices. Coaching can also include discerning your next steps, setting goals and accountability.
Bodywork
In person in West Philly
60 - 80 minutes
I use gentle touch and movement, along with verbal dialogue. Our intention is not to fix or change you, but for you to re-inhabit and listen to your body. Stress, trauma and limiting beliefs show up in our body through constriction and disconnection. Caring and consensual touch can facilitate the restoration of movement and presence where it has been taken away. It is a creative, intuitive and collaborative process!
Small group sessions
2-10 people
Can be done virtually or in person
75-120 minutes
Some of our healing and exploration is best served by being accompanied and witnessed by community. This is an option to do embodied healing with a small group–friends, family, partners, members of a faith community, co-workers, organizing collaborators, etc. We can co-design an area of focus together, or we can hold it as an open space for what emerges each time.
I welcome and celebrate all bodies!
You are welcome in all your identities–your race, age, faith, class, ability, gender, size, sexuality, immigration status, and more.
What can we work on?
Anything you like!
You can use these sessions for whatever you want to work through – hopes and challenges you’re facing in your life, work, community and relationships.
Community Organizing
I love supporting people who are building collective power for justice in exploring what is coming up in that work, navigating challenges, learning from successes, and moving powerfully in your own way.
Racial Justice & Whiteness
I often work with white folks who want to delve into how they have been complicit in and impacted by white supremacy. This can include recognizing and transforming the patterns of whiteness you get stuck in, processing what comes up for you in movements for racial justice, and metabolizing the pain, grief, shame, recovery, connection and joy that come with committing to dismantling white supremacy.
As a cis white woman I feel purpose in working with white women on how patriarchy, white supremacy and capitalism have disconnected us from our own experience, power, and solidarity with women of color and all oppressed peoples. This is an invitation to reclaim ourselves from these systems of domination, practice fully living in our own skin and refusing to comply with patriarchy & white supremacy.
My Scope
I am not a licensed mental health professional. I will always do my best to honor the scope of my skills and training. If at any point I feel that my competencies won’t allow me to fully support you, I will check in with you. If at any point you feel I'm not able to adequately help you navigate what's coming up, please let me know. If this happens I'll offer some possibilities for others who may be better suited to support you.

You can use this resource to think through where you land on the sliding scale. If you’re unsure, we can also discuss finding an amount that feels sustainable during our initial consultation.
Note: I am currently at capacity for clients at the lowest end of my sliding scale, and currently only accepting $90-180/60 minutes. If you are interested in a lower paying slot you're still welcome to sign up for a consult and get on my waiting list for lower pay sessions.
COVID Safety
I am fully vaccinated and boosted, and if you want to do in person work, I ask that you are too.
During COVID spikes we will wear masks, or we can mask during all sessions–this is something we'll discuss before we meet, and continue to check in about as we go.
