“Firepot” Dahlia
I support clients who are processing trauma with workshops and one-on-one support in Embodied Resilience.
I’ve combined my background in teaching, writing, and rehabilitative Pilates, and also am drawing on lessons learned during my own ongoing recovery from a traumatic brain injury in 2018. I offer individual support as well as small group workshops.
I’ve also started growing dahlias so that I can provide multi-modal, experiential workshops to support my clients as they rebuild their sense of self.
We can support our own healing and growth in much the same way that nature repairs itself over time.
At one point or another, many if not most people will experience a sudden change of fortune.
Every client’s story is unique, and so is every client’s path forward. I fully listen to each client’s story to understand both immediate and long-term challenges, and to prioritize a plan for our sessions. Then, together, we build a sustainable process that might include postural, gait, breath, and voice awareness in combination with mental and emotional support, philosophical inquiry, brainstorming and tactical problem-solving, or hands-on creative expression.
Every client’s needs are different. I reject the role of guru, and instead offer informed support and insight to help you unlock your own inner wisdom.

Embodied Resilience helps you develop skills to manage the discomfort, misunderstandings, and grief that often accompany a traumatic experience.
We cannot eliminate all discomfort.
We cannot be completely understood.
We cannot avoid all feelings of sorrow or anger, confusion or disappointment.
By strengthening our understanding of ourselves and our needs, we can better improve the chances of those needs being met.
