How We Work Together

You can read more testimonials from my clients here.

We often start where you need to be met the most: What’s causing you the most stress now? Together we can decide what feels most supportive for you in your free 30 minute Discovery Session. Understanding how these modalities support each other may help answer your questions in the following tabs.

Resonance Healing™ is a neuroscience based approach developed by Sarah Peyton, a highly respected neuroscience expert and educator.

Resonance combines precise attunement, compassionate presence and right-brain, relational processes to help people transform the lasting effects of:

• Trauma

• Attachment wounds

• Self-limiting beliefs

Rather than focusing on insight or mindset coaching, Resonance Healing™ works with the nervous system and emotional brain, supporting deep and lasting change over time.

Resonance Healing™  builds on 30 years of my experience and integrates these key neuroscience principles that support healing at the root level.  

1. Neuroplasticity: Rewiring the brain
The brain can change throughout life. Resonance Healing™ helps build new neural pathways that support:

• Self-compassion

• Inner calm

• A felt sense of safety

2.  Healing is relational
Many emotional wounds form in relationship and they also heal in relationship. In Resonance Healing™  we cultivate a relational container of warmth, consent and being deeply “met” in your experience. With precision we support the repair of early attachment patterns and survival strategies.

3.  Addressing the root cause of trauma
Research shows that what makes an experience traumatic is often not just the event itself—but the experience of being alone and unsupported during or after it. Resonance Healing™ works directly with the  “alarmed aloneness,” helping resolve the deeper imprint trauma leaves on the nervous system and our relationships.

4.  A somatic (body-based) approach
As trauma expert Bessel van der Kolk emphasizes, "In order to change, people need to become aware of their sensations… Physical self-awareness is the first step in releasing the tyranny of the past." Resonance Healing™ integrates awareness of body sensations as a key pathway for  releasing painful memories and related patterns.

How safe do you feel speaking your mind? Can you hear feedback without becoming defensive? Is shutting down or blowing up part of your relationship history?

Resonance Healing™ will help your ability to::

• Stay more calm and grounded instead of reactive

• Replace your inner critic with a supportive inner dialogue

• Learn new skills and create more trust in your relationships

• Communicate with more clarity, respect and effectiveness

• Feel SAFE in relationships

Why does feeling safe matter so much?

When the body and nervous system feel safe:

• We think more clearly

• We respond instead of react

• We can access play, humor and creativity more easily

• We can enjoy deeper, more meaningful relationships

Resonance Healing™ complements TRE®  by:

• Addressing the emotional and relational roots of tension

• Helping the nervous system feel safe as the body releases

• Integrating physical release with meaning and awareness

• Grounding your awareness with empathic framing

I love working together as part of your “team.” Many of my clients find that the modalities I work with support the work they are doing or have done with their Psychotherapist.

Both TRE® and Resonance Healing™ support self-regulation, inner safety and body centered stability. This helps everything!

Communication Coaching partners well with other therapies because it focuses on pragmatic skills for the present- how to meet life, yourself and others more skillfully.

When we don’t feel safe, our mind/body nervous system is not really available to heal, learn or emerge authentically. When the body and nervous system feel safe:

• We think more clearly

• We respond instead of react

• We can access play, humor and creativity more easily

• We can enjoy deeper, more meaningful relationships

When we feel safe, we can feel more at ease in our own skin. We can thrive and be more of who we are.

Of course not. Many people wish to improve their communication and relationship skills because they know it is essential to being happy and successful. We all experience loss and change, overwhelm and stress as a normal part of life. And most of us can relate to having an inner critic that can get the best of us at times. We can’t stop life from happening but we can learn to meet life more skillfully with the tools that I teach.

For Resonance Healing™ and Communication Coaching Sessions the fee is $150/hour. If we decide a longer session is more beneficial, time is prorated: 75 min/$185 and 90 min/$225.

TRE® sessions are 90 minutes long. For the initial consult which involves more dialogue, the fee is $225. Follow up sessions are $180.

If for any reason, you are in financial difficulty, we can discuss other types of payment options in your free 30 minute Discovery session.

As you will see on my payment portal, I accept credit cards, Venmo and Zelle can be arranged. I am not able to accept insurance although I have had clients use their Medical Savings Account to pay for sessions.
