Guiding you back to your body, gently and honestly.

my story

I've always known I wanted to help people heal.

What I didn't know yet was that I'd have to find my own way back to my body first.

Growing up in New York, my path into this work began with pain: recurring low back injuries and an anxiety that hit hardest at night, leaving me out of sync with myself. Chiropractic care helped with the physical side, therapy with the rest, planting the first real seeds of how much my mental health mattered too. Fitness became its own form of therapy along the way, yoga and meditation included, slowly teaching me to hear what my body already knew.

Underneath the recovery, something else was happening too: I was being led back to my own wholeness, back to who I was beneath the pain and the programming I'd picked up along the way.

One moment changed how I understood all of it. In a practice that bridged the gap between spirit and psyche, mind and body, I was guided to speak to the boy I used to be, to let him know I was here now, that I saw him. That moment cracked me open. It was the first time I actually felt whole, safe, and seen, my heart fully online, connected to my body and breath in a way it hadn't really been before. Just a deep presence and peace.

That return became the foundation for everything I offer now, and it keeps deepening as I continue to let myself unfold.

In 2014, I completed a 1,000-hour massage therapy program in Syracuse, NY, and became a Licensed Massage Therapist. I was already a few years into that career when the deeper work found me, so looking back, it makes sense the two kept pulling each other along. Massage was its own doorway into embodiment: learning the body, how it moves, becoming more aware of sensation and feeling, a language I was already speaking without quite knowing that's what was happening.

I've practiced in Austin since 2022, building a practice rooted in trust and attentive care, and I've kept training since in somatic breathwork and trauma-informed care, so I can support the people I work with in a deeper way.

My approach is both clinical and intuitive. I pay attention to postural imbalance, chronic pain, stress, and tension. And I hold space for your nervous system to soften and settle.

Because when the body feels safe, it begins to heal.

my philosophy

Touch, as relationship.

What I love more than anything is treating bodywork as ritual, honoring the power of safe human connection and touch. My most powerful sessions happen when I stop trying to fix, and give instead from devotion and reverence for another person here to heal and remember who they are,
just as much as I am.

Slowing down enough to really experience myself, and my life, has been one of the most healing things I've done for my own nervous system, especially in a world that runs on urgency and hustle. Slow and deliberate presence is the essence of grace and receptivity,
and it's what I offer you here.

Whether you're seeking physical relief or simply a space to breathe and reconnect, I'm here to support your return.
