In your mind, in your mind
One foot on Jacob’s ladder
And one foot in the fire
And it all goes down in your mind

Find Inner Peace, Clarity, and Self Compassion so you can Make Your Brain a Kinder Place to Live
Welcome to My Assisted Self Discovery Space
My approach is a result of years of study and working systemically with powerful tools like Compassionate Inquiry, Somatic Experiencing, Hakomi, IFS, Gestalt, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and an extensive somatic and embodiment expertise to harness the powerful intersection of the body and the psyche to support my clients reprocess old trauma, addiction and limiting patterns so that they can bring compassion and understanding to what happened to them and it that way stop being prisoners from their own past.
In our 60 minutes sessions, we will use a unique combination of tools to explore your triggers and limiting patterns to access the wisdom within your unconscious to become more connected to the world around you and the depth of the world within you. I am also an expert in the impact that trauma has on the body, our capacity to access vitality and our ability to Self- Regulate and, through Compassionate Inquiry and Somatic Experiencing lens, work with the prolific effect different types of trauma have on the psyche and how they affect our health.
You do not become wiser or enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the
shadows conscious. There is so much noise around us. We are surrounded by other people’s ideas, mantras,
strategies, and recipes on “how to live your best life ever… ” What does it even mean??!!!. Your life
is a unique path and only you can make the conscious choice on how to live a life that is meaningful to you.
In order to make the unconscious conscious, it is necessary to explore your triggers, addictive
patterns and those old wounds that are holding you back.
Because sometimes the way forward is the way back
I Guide you to Reconnect with yourself
What to expect when you work with me.
Talk Therapy: Exploration of your personal history to help you understand your struggles now. Understanding the impact your past has on your present will naturally emerge in our work together. Even while talking, I practice in a way that never leaves awareness of the body out of the process.
Somatic and Embodiment practices: Your body is constantly communicating your feelings, repressed memories, deeper wisdom, and intuition through S.E. And Embodiment Practices, we can explore this together and help you process them. You will be able to access more of your unconscious and bring your moment-to-moment inner workings
into awareness. This can result in a greater ability to consciously navigate traumatic stress or triggers, support emotional resilience and radically disarm the survival strategies that are no longer beneficial in the present day.
Parts work: They are not bad parts, they all have a protective role that makes sense in our inner map and development. In the work with our most challenging parts within us, we can find a new way to relate to ourselves and bring inner harmony, and self-compassion, and open the doors to spiritual awakening.
Expressive arts and work with symbols: explore our rich unconscious with the symbols, arquetypes and images that each session brings so you can become more familiar with your own inner landscape and use it as the wonderful resource that it is Dream Analysis. Using dream analysis while harnessing a somatic orientation, we can explore how your unconscious psyche is trying to support the process of you coming into wholeness and bringing you closer to your Self.
Gestalt and Systemic Work: We work with your resources and challenges here and now so you can understand your own Self in relationship with your family system and cultivate greater social and emotional awareness and presence.
Shadow work: All our parts matter. Very early on we push some of who we are and who we may become into the Shadow. Anything which may threaten our belonging may be given up, repressed and denied, Shadow Work is a process of radical acceptance in which we reintegrate with our shadows and become whole again.

I try to maintain a price for my sessions that can be affordable to my clientes around the world.
So please reach out directly if you are currently struggling financially or are in a corner of the
world where this price is hard to afford. This is a conscious choice on my part, because I don’t
believe that getting support to overcome our challenges and addictive patterns should cost a
fortune or put you in debt. And before you ask, no, I don’t have money mindset issues. Yes, I do
know my worth (and no it’s not tied to the price of my offerings).
​Perhaps all the dragons of your lives are princesses who are only acting to see us once beautiful and brave. Perhaps everything terrible is in its deepest being something helpless that wants help from us.
