somatic experiencing
I am currently offering advanced-level Somatic Experiencing (SE) sessions as a practitioner-in-training.
Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a gentle, body-focused therapy that supports the nervous system to shift held patterns of stress/trauma from past or ongoing events.
Many people find that SE increases their ability to experience more embodiment, resiliency and pleasure of all kinds
SE is not a talk-therapy, it works with the body and nervous system, not a story, to create new stress-response patterns.
Often people work with SE practice in an ongoing fashion, with appointments 2-4 times per month, but some may want only a few sessions or to work as needed.
​
Rates: I offer 40-minute SE sessions for $40. See pricing for alternatives.

location
I am predominately meeting with folks remotely via a HIPAA-compliant online platform or via phone.
I am slowly beginning to offer in-person meetings either outdoors or in my office in downtown Montpelier in addition to remote appointments.
If you are fully vaccinated for covid-19 + feel you would be best served by an in-person meeting, mention this when scheduling.
​
This office can be accessed by stairs or elevator, and has ADA compliant/all gender restrooms. Appointment structure can be tailored to allow for breaks for any reason.
I clean the room with fragrance-free cleaning supplies, although I store herbs in the space which inherently have a fragrance. Other areas of the building are cleaned with conventional (fragranced) products.
Masks are required in the building. Inside my office, I ask that folks arrive masked to make a mutual decision weather or not we will remain masked throughout the session.
**This winter I am also able to offer in-person appointments in Pittsburgh, PA.
