I am a certified facilitator in UZAZU Embodied Intelligence who works in a direct and immediate way to support you in accessing and expressing your authentic self.
I am an eternal optimist who has suffered the deepest of pain and have come out the other side having learned a lot about grief and joy.
In 2013, I took a deep dive into conscious movement and dance, have explored numerous philosophies and spiritual paths, and have done my fair share of therapy.
However, I am not a follower of any path but my own, which is precisely what I wish for you.
UZAZU Embodied Intelligence is a richly integrative modality used by coaches and therapists to support deep and lasting embodied change. It is a body-mind-awareness-based framework for learning how to “shift your state” from one of imbalance to one of more balance.
I not only studied the modality, but I worked for more than a year on content and curriculum design with Dylan Newcomb, the founder and director. And in 2020, I became a certified UZAZU embodied facilitation practitioner.
I am a Community Member at Good Medicine Collective in Portland, Maine, a community of integrative health providers and changemakers.
At Good Movement @ Good Medicine Collective, I offer freeform dance, conscious movement, somatic awareness, as well as a variety of offerings that support personal and community creativity and connection.
I am a lifelong sailor with a 27′ sailboat named Aura, which I sail out of Rockland, Maine. Previously, I lived aboard a 36′ sloop and cruised Maine, the East Coast, and Bahamas, and I owned a 28′ sloop solo. I’ve written extensively about my travels, including some published articles described here.
I am also a licensed USCG Captain who started a women sailing program through Sailing Ships Maine, a non-profit that creates life-changing opportunities for teens on the ocean.
