The great wild STUDIO

Broadly, this is about attuning to the great wilderness of our bodies to positively impact our sense of health and wellbeing. Specifically, this is a place to share thoughts and research on eco-kinetic approaches to therapy, uniting various therapeutic modalities including eco-psychotherapy and sensorimotor psychotherapy. I promote the use of natural elements + ingredients intended to support you on your unique pathway to transformation.

I am currently a qualifying Dance/Movement Therapist with the American Dance Therapy Association and I am an endorsed practitioner of the Boston Children’s Foundation attunement program called Rainbowdance. I believe in the psychotherapeutic use of creative, relational, embodied movement to promote the emotional, social, cognitive, and physical integration of self. You can find out more about my approach and how to book time with me here.

I often make or recommend custom tools, blends, massages, and wildcrafted remedies for clients I am working with to support sensorimotor connections and expand possibilities for regulation and am grateful for these land and body based medicines.

Should we work together?
