My Services

I offer two ways to work together, depending on your needs: hands-on support for physical pain and tension, or experiential sessions to help you regulate stress, understand pain, and build nervous system resilience.

While clients may start in one area, we always work with the whole system, because the body and mind are always connected. Through hands-on support or guided practices, you can ease discomfort, reduce stress, build physical and emotional resiliency.

Sessions are available my-studio in Asheville, and in local parks, gyms, or video conferencing.

Therapeutic Bodywork Sessions

This session is hands on, intentional and targeted to your most concerning areas of discomfort. The work is therapeutic enough to directly address your physical issues and make meaningful changes in the tissue, yet relaxing enough to help regulate your nervous system.

The goal: to focus deeply on your primary areas of concern, injury or symptoms, and unwind chronic holding patterns, exploring the nuances of healing.

Sessions may include:

  • Therapeutic massage

  • Graston, cupping, and percussion therapy

  • Trigger point, craniosacral (CST), and myofascial release (MFR) techniques

  • Joint mobilization and soft tissue holds

  • Active or assisted stretching

  • Issue-specific strengthening

  • Movement coaching to improve mechanics and form

  • Design and instruction for home exercise programs

Rates:

  • 60 minutes — $100

  • 75 minutes — $125 Bodywork & Movement

Somatic Regulation Sessions

This session is educational, experiential, and centered on guided somatic awareness, IFS-informed parts dialogue, and practical nervous system reset tools. Rather than just talking about your challenges, we focus on completing the body’s stress response cycle, reducing anxiety, and uncovering the root factors behind chronic pain, internal conflict, stress, and burnout.

The goal: to show your body how to move out of persistent overwhelm with real-time practices to restore balance to your system every day.

Sessions may include:

  • Nervous system reset practices

  • Guided somatic awareness

  • IFS-informed parts dialogue

  • Stress and pain education

  • Tools to complete stress and anxiety cycles

  • Healthy lifestyle and mindset strategies

  • Graduated exposure and movement planning

  • Gentle calming and centering techniques

  • Titration and pendulation to process emotions and build resilience

Come back to your senses

1. Somatic Awareness (The Body)

Somatic awareness simply means learning to notice and work with the signals and sensations of your body. We don’t just talk about your stress; we find where it lives. By tuning into physical sensations, we help your nervous system move out of "protective mode" and back into a state of safety. It’s like learning to read the dashboard of your own body.

By becoming more aware of these patterns, you can learn to respond with more awarness and less reactivity. Over time, this helps your body and nervous system feel more grounded, balanced, and at ease.

2. Internal Family Systems (The Parts)

IFS teaches that our internal system is made up of different parts or personas like the inner critic, the people pleaser, the avoider, the worrier, or the workaholic each with their own beliefs, fears, needs, and roles.

These parts aren’t flaws, they’re normal. Many take on protective or managing roles that they developed a long time ago, in an effort to help you cope and feel safe. They’re trying to keep your most vulnerable parts from getting hurt, even if their strategies now contribute to unhelpful patterns and symptoms.

Instead of fighting those parts or trying to silence them, IFS teaches you to notice them, understand them, and build a more compassionate relationship with them. As parts begin to feel heard, understood, and unburdened, they often stop gripping the wheel so tightly. That’s when you may begin to feel less anxious, less overwhelmed, and more like your grounded, calm, centered self.

3. Touch the "System Calmer" (Focus on Safety)

The Language of Touch: Sometimes the nervous system needs more than words to feel safe. Skillful, therapeutic touch acts as a direct line to your physiology, whispering to your "protective parts" that they can finally stop bracing. It’s a physical invitation for your system to downshift from high-alert to deep restoration.

4. Body-Mind Resiliency (Bring it all together)

This is where it all comes together. We use touch, movement, breath, and inner awareness to expand your window of capacity. You don’t just learn to "tolerate" stress, anxiety, or discomfort; you build a toolbox of practices to stay flexible, steady, and empowered no matter what life throws at you.

The Secret Sauce:

Your nervous system and protective parts are trying to help.

Most people try to think their way out of stress, pain, or overwhelm. But the loudest signals often aren’t coming from the thinking mind they’re coming from the body and the protective parts of you trying to keep you safe.

Below are some of the approaches we use to help your system feel more supported, regulated, and centered.

Your body has a lot to say. Are you ready to listen?

Build your capacity, restore your flexibility, and return to a balanced state.
