my approach is rooted in this truth:
there is nothing wrong with you
difficulty is not proof of deficiency
your problems are signals.
if you’re here, you’re probably looking for help with something that isn’t working for you. maybe you have a sticky relationship situation, a hard time feeling joy, chronic pain, or conflict in your organization.
whatever isn’t working for you — is a signal to listen to. it tells us about how this all came to be, its a part of the world asking to be understood. it might not feel great right now, but with patient understanding we can transform your experience.
why power-informed?
most conventional (and new age) therapies operate under the assumption that our problems are the result of a pathology, addiction, self-destructive behavior, biochemical flaw, or bad “energy.”
to be power-informed is to operate under the assumption that, even when we or others seem to act in “irrational” ways, there are material and social reasons for both our behavior and our problems. in other words, all of what people do is perfectly reasonable when you place it within a full context.
everything is relational.
we’re often taught to approach things as if there is a code to crack to get what we want, when really
—> nothing is one sided. everything is a relationship.
all issues in our lives have multiple important sides to them
there is a required skillset to for relationships:
nurturance & radical honesty
i teach you how to practice
why somatics?
everything we do, we do with our bodies (even thinking).
there’s no separation between body and mind — how we walk is how we think.
and we largely inherit who & how we are. our habits are automatic and ingrained in our bodies (which we also didn’t pick).
we use “somatics” to study your body’s unique habits and practice new ways of moving in the world
when we pay attention at this deep level,
our lives radically transform…
we ALL have this capacity.
i just help you remember how
