6 Week Deep Dive
Come join me for a rich dive into your inner world, if you'd like to...
- Feel seen and heard.
- Cultivate embodied safety and support.
- Slow down and listen to the voices within.
- Learn tools for navigating challenging emotions.
- Explore the joys of movement.
- Get unstuck.
In this deep dive, I offer simple and effective practices for healing, including body-based practices, such as breath and movement, tools from IFS (Parts Work) and creative approaches such as writing and drawing. You get to explore challenging feelings and find more clarity and self-compassion. This small group of 3 to 6 people is a sweet space to nurture authentic connections with others.
In addition to having time for personal exploring and sharing with others, one person will receive 30 minutes of focused attention each session. I provide guidance in rooting into a your center, moving through emotions, and connecting with the parts that are arising in the moment. It is powerful to do this process with the support of the group and it is also a rich experience for those witnessing.
Participants often report feeling nourished and grateful to feel more at home in themselves. I hope that you will join me for this fruitful journey of self-discovery!
Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Important information to know before applying:
-This group is considered an Intermediate Level group. This means that you have been doing personal healing work (of any kind) for at least one year. You have a strong sense of self-awareness and some tools for regulation under your belt. You want to go deeper in your healing process.
-While this work is therapeutic, it is not a substitute for mental health counseling. If you are dealing with mental health issues, please have support from a therapist.
-I require that you have access to some sort source of outside support either ongoing or someone on call, a therapist, bodyworker, etc. during our time together. Sessions may catalyze the movement of emotions that you don’t have time to process during a session.
-This work draws from Parts Work (Internal Family Systems), but doesn’t necessarily use all of the tools or in the order in traditional IFS. This approach is more fluid. I use the concept of a “part” more broadly. At times it will refer to a sub-personality that has a specific age and other details, but at times it will refer to a segment of your experience such as an emotion, thought or image.
My goal is to establish a compassionate relationship to whatever is emerging, allow for unblending/rooting in Self, and release (unburdening), and restoring a sense of wellness and safety. My background in Internal Family Systems is a 3 year study group with Wendy Weiss.
-Somatic approaches draw inspiration from 2 years of training in Somatic Experiencing, and over 20 years of mindfulness practices, and improvisational dance forms. My main goals with these practices are to discharge stored nervous system energy and foster an internal sense of safety and resilience.
-I welcome all genders to my groups.
-Groups are done online. Sessions will NOT be recorded, because they are highly experiential.
Participant Requirements:
You are able to:
-Listen to others without interrupting.
-Speak with respect and kindness.
-Refrain from giving advice, unless asked.
-Communicate your needs and make requests.
-Tend to your own triggers and come prepared with a few tools for self-care.
-Pause & take time to notice body sensations and emotions.
-Trust the process of being with discomfort as difficult feelings are processed.
More about triggers and self-care: A trigger happens when your nervous system perceives a threat from the present or one is evoked from the past. You might feel antsy, tense, irritated, nervous, shut-down or have other symptoms. These are often uncomfortable and you start to feel a sense of disconnection from the group.
It is very likely that you will feel this nervous system response during at least one of the meetings. At these moments, I may not be able to attend to you (but I may, depending on the flow of the group). In either case, I highly support you in doing self-care. This can look like taking a break, doing some deep breathing or journaling. If some self-care doesn’t help bring you to center and the trigger feels quite big, you may exit the Zoom meeting. These choices ARE part of honoring our parts and I will encourage it along the way.
