Blending science, psychology and mysticism

My approach is anatomy driven blending over 1,000 hours education at a  Virginia myofascial massage school with college anatomy,  physiology, cadaver dissection courses.  Craniosacral training is through Upledger Institute; a world-renown curriculum that blends cranial osteopathy with somatic emotional release and energy fields balancing. Dr. John Upledger personally mentored me as a visiting therapist in his Florida intensive treatment program and a teaching assistant in his brain balancing curriculum. We pioneered treatment techniques that were decades ahead of today's neuroscience. His spirit of inquiry continues to inform my path of deeper listening to the unseen and unspoken happening in the quantum fields of our being and those we create in relationships. Graduate-level studies deepened my understanding of attachment  theory and birth psychology. Multi-generational family attachment dynamics from pre-conception through childhood and midlife is a cornerstone of my approach both in  pediatric and adult sessions.  My passion for teaching  babies and even crawlers tummy time and developmental movement repatterining is based on extensive studies with Continuum movement developer Emily Conrad,  baby/child yoga, infant massage and lactation courses. The understanding that our deep emotional issues are somaticized in our organs as well as our brains is foundational in my advanced studies of French osteopathic Visceral Manipulation and Neural Manipulation. Deepest healing and transformation is a spiritual quest that requires self-awareness and surrender to the divine, organic energies inside and around us. My mystical studies focus primarily on Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism and Native American shamanic medicine. As a coach and educator I encourage clients to learn about their own bodies and relationship dynamics so they can trust their intuition more deeply, release survival patterns and blossom in creation life force  Prior to pursuing the healing arts in 1995,  I worked as a broadcast journalist, reporting, writing, producing, editing in London, Vermont, Maryland and ultimately for national media outlets based in Washington, DC. My BA is in English and Journalism from the University of New Hampshire; my home state.  I am the a mother of two Colombian young men I adopted as pre-teens in 2015. They have been my greatest teachers of spiritual surrender, trust and trauma healing through bonding and attachment.  My mother was a Holocaust survivor who emigrated from Germany as a young woman to be with my dad. We are fourth generation Boston Irish on my dad's side. My parents taught me strong values of education, tenacity, service and undying love no matter what. Love knows no borders.
