Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner
Compassionate Inquiry Therapeutic Sessions:
In Compassionate Inquiry® (CI) sessions, we explore where and how your past may be showing up in the present, whether through triggered reactions, recurring patterns, behaviors, addictions, limiting beliefs and/or narratives. CI places deep trust in the body—its sensations, the emotions and memories it holds, and the felt experience of the present moment—as a guide to uncovering and healing the roots of emotional pain and trauma.
At the heart of our work together is the relational space we co-create—a container rooted in safety, compassion, and deep presence. This supportive space invites all the parts of you to be seen and heard with understanding and care. In this witnessing, no part of you is dismissed or left behind—an important shift, especially when compensating or adaptive behaviors have developed in response to feeling unseen or unsafe in the past.
Through this path of Compassionate Inquiry, you may begin to cultivate greater awareness, self-compassion, and an increased freedom and capacity to respond—rather than react—in the present moment. Over time, this work supports a homecoming to your authentic Self: fully and creatively expressed, deeply connected, and aligned with the divine essence of your being, for the benefit of all beings.
Compassionate Inquiry® is helpful for:
Working through and healing both “big T” and “little t” traumas that may manifest as limiting beliefs, adaptive behaviors, coping mechanisms, triggers
Increasing body and emotional awareness to facilitate deeper insight and healing, and to strengthen the mind-body-heart connection
Connecting to suppressed emotions, beliefs, traumas, in a safer container, to support processing and holistic healing
Facilitating a deeper connection to your authentic Self and accessing your own inner healing wisdom and intelligence
Learning about and cultivating more presence, awareness, patience, and compassion with the various parts of yourself

About me
My passion to share somatic therapeutic support for the spiritual journey has very much blossomed out of my own personal path, which weaves together therapeutic healing, spirituality, somatics, and explorations of expanded states of consciousness.
My journey began with my father, who had cancer for ten years - half my life before he died. As he faced and learned to embrace death through his own process and ways, I was there to listen and take it all in, even if I didn't understand it yet.
He was the first to invite me to befriend silence, stillness, and reflection. He showed me how to see the beautiful divine in all things. And ultimately, he taught me what it is to trust and surrender, because that's all there is to do in the end. He showed me the doorway to a spiritual path that I've been grateful to walk my whole life, with him still alongside. Through a lens of curiosity and gratitude for life (and death), I have ventured through mine, searching to understand life, death, place, belonging, home, and everything in between and beyond.
Yet in combination with this spiritual path, I found the importance and need to care for and support the healing of all the personal life experiences and stories that left marks and wounds and beliefs that, at times, block the clarity of our true essence and Self.
Sharing from my own experience and heart, and making my own way back home, I’m passionate about accompanying others on their healing and spiritual journey back to their whole, wild, soulful, authentic Selves.
