Profile

I’m a highly trained somatic intimacy coach and advanced student of Somatic Experiencing. I am also a death doula.

I love supporting people who long to feel more pleasure and aliveness in their bodies and their lives, to live boldly (or quietly, as it may be) with exquisite authenticity. I also help people explore grief, death, and longing as a path to embracing the ecstasy of life, and I can help people plan their deaths and engage in hands-on ancestral work–a valuable practice that can liberate all kinds of potentials and resources.

As a devotee of tantrik yoga, I practice avidly in a woman-led, utterly gynocentric, unbroken lineage that is thousands of years old. I don’t bring this directly into my sessions. I am, however, deeply committed to helping students and teachers on traditional nondual embodied paths with integration of practice and samskaric patterns widely labeled “trauma.” I also see plenty of "non-spiritual" people!

My private practice is based in my hometown of Tiohtià:ke/ Montreal, Canada and I travel frequently to Northern Vermont and New York City (where I lived for two decades). I offer sessions in person and online, and in remote nature whenever possible. I generally work by word of mouth; no website right now. Please email me to set up a free discovery call.

I am a single mother to a mixed-race girl. Mothering and caregiving are a big part of my life. I feel comfortable working with individuals, couples, and sex workers of all ages, genders, identities, abilities, relational structures, religions, and proclivities.
