Body-Based Psychotherapy

I’m a somatic, mindfulness‑oriented psychotherapist practicing in Boulder, CO. My work is client‑centered and grounded in the belief that healing unfolds most naturally when we slow down, listen inwardly, and meet ourselves with curiosity and compassion.

In sessions, I will invite you into a relaxed, open, and safe relational space. I will also share body‑based practices to support you in connecting with and facilitating an inner relationship with yourself that feels kinder, more open, and trusting. As your relationship with yourself shifts, you may notice that the very environment inside you begins to change—creating the conditions in which deeper transformation becomes possible.

A central part of my work is using Eugene Gendlin’s Focusing method. Focusing is a way of listening to yourself through body awareness. It is a gentle yet powerful  way of accessing the “felt sense,” the subtle bodily knowing that often holds more truth than our thoughts alone.

As we use Focusing as a part of our sessions, you may find that it results in knowing yourself better, where you are more able to sort out what you feel and want, and more able to recognize the parts of you that hold difficult emotions, beliefs, or patterns. By turning toward those parts with curiosity and without judgement, an inner environment emerges where genuine change can occur.

Finally, there is a spiritual component to what I am describing. I hold the conviction that we don’t need to add anything or become something more than who we are to reach toward our potential, but rather to remove the obstacles in the way. By cultivating a safe, non‑judgmental space that supports self‑awareness, personal growth, and embodied presence, you may find yourself releasing old patterns and clearing the way for a more vibrant, confident, loving expression of yourself to emerge.

I believe that the purpose of therapy is to become more and more established in this liberated Self.
