Radical Presence
Somatics | Mindfulness | IFS
My Approach
I come to you with the profound belief that there is nothing wrong with you, even if it feels like there is.
​​It is my intention for this practice to be a place of safety dignity and belonging, creating space for you to begin your journey of restoration towards your inherently wholesome Core/Self.
What I strive for in my work is to create a space in which Radical Presence becomes an embodied experience. Being radically present means complete, undivided attention to what is here, now, in our wholesome adult Core/Self, void of judgement, expectations or agenda. I will be your guide on the path to understanding that the intense or extreme parts of you that feel stuck and that you might be trying to make sense of, or get rid of, are actually not the problem. What if they have actually been the solution?
They might show up as patterns of anxiety, fear, shame, control, anger, addictive behaviors, people pleasing, caretaking, low self worth or many other emotions or behaviors you struggle with. They have simply found ways to help you cope with difficult or traumatic experiences and emotions stuck in the past, to make life feel 'manageable'. As we learn to listen to them and begin to understand their intentions, we receive valuable insights into the way they have protected the 'little' parts of us that are vulnerable and wounded.
From your present adult Self, we will learn how to access curiosity, compassion, even gratitude for your system's wisdom, creating enough safety and trust to facilitate release of past beliefs and emotions, paving the way towards emotional freedom.
​
I am here to hold a safe space for you to explore together what it means to live in and respond from your inherently wholesome adult Core/Self.
We might have to rediscover it together but
whatever you bring, I will guide you in shifting your relationship to it and make space for new supportive lived experiences.
We will work together on finding and addressing the parts in you that keep you from feeling worthy, present, safe and connected.
