I am committed to serving people through the lens of the body. I have spent my life studying how we express ourselves and move through our lives. Through dance, movement, somatic (body-based) practices, and energy work I help people connect with who they really are underneath all the complexity and tension they hold.

I know what it is like to push hard and end up sick, or worse. At a young age, my body demanded that I figure out a more holistic, balanced approach to my body and my life. The levels of pushing (which I thought to be high performing) were only hurting me. There was a better way.

I am a Dance/Movement Therapist. I hold a masters degree in Somatic Counseling/ Psychology. I have a rich and varied background of using dance therapy in groups and with individuals. I currently offer services through by business called Communitas Movement. At Communitas we offer integrative, holistic experiences. I studied dance formally in college and created my own major integrating how dance communicates culture. I have been studying, teaching, and choreographing dance ever since. I have studied dance and culture in several countries – Rwanda, South Africa, Kenya, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Russia and Ukraine, just to name a few.
