Certifications and qualifications: Infant Developmental Movement Therapist, CranialSacral Therapist, Lactation Support

My journey as a mother and as a mover has given me great joy and learning. I have witnessed profound benefits with the gentle approaches of craniosacral and developmental therapies for infants, children and women. I became a therapist out of my desire to make this holistic work available to mothers and babies.

Craniosacral therapy supports newborns in resolving nursing problems and difficult birth and helps babies with colic, sleep problems, asymmetries and prematurity. Craniosacral therapy offers deep relaxation for moms in preparation for natural birth. Development movement therapy supports normal development such as tummy time and addresses developmental delays. I also provide neuro-developmental support for children with learning challenges from toddlers to school age.

I am a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist through ISMETA; trained in lactation support through Evergreen Perinatal Education and La Leche League; and certified in Craniosacral Therapy by Carol Phillips, in Infant Developmental Movement Education by the School for Body-Mind Centering; and in Hakomi Professional Skills. In my therapy practice I incorporate meditation, yoga, qi gong, vocal and movement release, as well as all I have learned from dancing, swimming, running and mothering my beloved teen rascals, Erin and Lee, and being the wife of my patient husband, Bruce.
