"It isn't the mountains ahead to climb that wears you out; it's the pebble in your shoe."
- Muhammad Ali -
At Rooted Works, counseling is more than just talking—it’s an embodied journey of self-discovery and transformation. My work is rooted in years of exploring how mind and body heal together. After beginning my career in psychology and later training in bodywork, I found that the deepest healing happens when both are honored.
​
I offer a compassionate, client-centered approach that blends traditional talk therapy with body-based modalities drawn from Somatic Experiencing, Hakomi, Somatic CBT, and DBT. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, uncover the patterns that keep you stuck, and gently release the layers of tension and emotion held in your system.
​
Whether you’re working through stress, trauma, or life transitions, I provide a grounded, supportive space where you can reconnect with your inner steadiness, rebuild trust in yourself, and create meaningful, lasting change.
​
Counseling at Rooted Works naturally integrates with my background in Craniosacral Therapy, offering a bridge between mind and body that supports deeper release and regulation.
ALTERNATIVE MODALITIES
CRANIO SACRAL THERAPY
Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle yet profound healing approach that helps the body unwind layers of stored stress and emotional tension. Rooted in my early training as a bodyworker, this practice bridges the worlds of bodywork and psychotherapy—supporting deep release and regulation through mindful, intuitive touch and guided awareness.
​
Many people seek Craniosacral Therapy when they notice symptoms like jaw clenching, headaches, sleep difficulties, or a constant sense of unease. These are often the body’s signals of holding on too tightly to past experiences. Through a calming, meditative process, we invite the nervous system to soften, creating space for emotional and physical healing to occur naturally.
​
This work complements counseling beautifully, offering another pathway to connect with your body’s innate intelligence and restore balance from the inside out.
