Alignment Session
Build an embodied, multidimensional healing practice.
Alignment Session
The body keeps the record. In my private practice, I work with leaders and CEOs to explore the emotions, experiences, and deep-seated beliefs that live in the nervous system—shaping how they respond under pressure and where they hold pain. Together, we build an embodied practice to regulate the pattern and heal its source.
WHO THIS IS FOR
This one-on-one work is especially powerful for CEOs and leaders who are:
—
Living in physical or emotional pain — sensing the body is speaking, not failing
—
High-functioning on the outside, running on empty underneath
—
Moving fast but no longer certain what they're moving toward
—
Navigating friction in relationships — with partners, colleagues, friends, family — that follows the same pattern
—
Led by a nervous system still protecting them from threats they've already outgrown
—
Ready to expand into the spiritual depth and gifts they've sensed but set aside

The Programs
Healing Through Story—
Narrative Medicine is a research-backed framework for exploring the emotions, experiences and deep-seeded beliefs that impact our health. Over three months, I share narrative medicine-led prompts and indigenous healing modalities to explore your emotional, physical and spiritual pain, its influence on your life and where these stories sit within your body. We give power to your stories of suffering—and healing.
In unearthing these stories, we remove the blocks that keep you from living authentically and healing, revealing your truest nature.
Bone healing is an ancient Ugandan practice rooted in unearthing the stories that live in our bones and cause physical pain, emotional disconnect and burnout. Intuitive bone healing is the practice of activating and moving energy through the body, releasing trapped stories and opening ourselves back up to healing and wholeness.
Combining these powerful healing modalities, alongside sacred texts, I work with you to release the energy that sits beneath your stories and create an embodied, multidimensional healing practice you can take into your own life.
Intuitive Body & Bone Healing—
Breathwork—
The condition of the nervous system, the state of your emotional life and the quality of the breath are intertwined. What takes place in our outer environment and in our mind is registered in the breath.
This breathwork series is centered around diaphragmatic breathing, which helps you balance your autonomic nervous system. Together, we build a mindful practice of slowing down and tuning in, bolstered by personal affirmations known as kakassas that root you further into a daily breath practice.
Doula & Womb Healing—
For womyn who are struggling to conceive and/or wanting to heal their feminine center, I use a series of narrative medicine and indigenous healing modalities to clear old stories from inside the body. Whether you’ve experienced sexual trauma, miscarriages, abortions or fertility issues, this deeply healing and integrated approach soothes the nervous system, clears the body and helps womyn tap into an embodied and renewed sense of self.
Rooted in my narrative medicine training, breathwork and indigenous healing modalities, I also help families prepare for labor, birth and postpartum with an embodied and integrated approach.
