I began my career in Structural integration in 2002 and quickly gained a reputation for helping clients find freedom from chronic pain with functional movement patterns. In 2017, I learned about Somatic Experiencing (SE) and was convinced that body-held trauma was the missing part of the puzzle within the chronic pain work.  I completed the 3-year training in 2020.

In 2023, I began assisting and it is a wonderful addition to my work. I feel that it consistently keeps me “fresh” in the SE work, and I love working with students of SE as the experiential is so important to understanding the work and integrating it into practice.

I love the blend of bodywork and SE as we get to work with all parts of the person, and through this integration of self, we can help find more whole.

I also have experience as a co-owner/operator of a local and international adventure company for over ten years, giving me insight into adventure tourism operations. I am settled back into life in Kamloops, greatly enjoying my Somatic Experiencing and Structural Integration practice and volunteering on the assisting team for many Somatic Experiencing trainings. I also own and operate a separate business of a clinic, currently filled with RMTs. Life is never simple, but balance and well-being have always been a priority. I greatly enjoy reading, skiing, hiking, and surfing, as well as a strong Pilates and meditation practice.
