Welcome to
The Groundwork
mind-body integration
and slow therapy
for Stress, Burnout,
and Nervous System Healing
This is an integrative healing space designed to support safe, steady,
and sustainable transformation —
so you can:
stop performing,
stop pretending, and
live in alignment with your true desires.
Because I see you.
You’re the one who always shows up — who is at the ready — even when you’re feeling worn out or weighed down, too.
It feels like you’re a rockstar at showing up for everyone else… but you can’t remember the last time you chose yourself…
This is where you finally get to take up space, too.
You’ve done the healing work.
Therapy, coaching, spiritual deep dives. Even tried to release it physically — in the gym, at the sauna, in a yoga class, doing cold plunges, at 5am boot camps. And while you’re making progress, there’s a part of you that feels like something you desire is still just out of reach.
You’re brilliant, self-aware, resourced & reflective.
But you’re tired of circling the same drain with mindset and emotion work. You’re longing for change that finally lands. Not just in your mind or your body, but across your whole being.
And that’s exactly what The Groundwork allows.
In this work, you’ll learn how to stop abandoning yourself.
To honor your rhythms.
To trust your inner knowing.
And to stick with yourself, not just when things are calm…
…but when you’re smack in the middle of real, messy life.
There are 2 tiers of
The Groundwork:
Each one includes:
Individual (1:1) video sessions for at least
6 monthsAsynchronous support between sessions (“office hours”)
Personal tools designed to support your experience directly
A custom resource library you can access any time
Aligned support using your Human Design
The difference between tiers is in the depth of support, how often we meet, and how much room you want to stretch into.
Explore below and see which tier might match your current season.
🌿 Tier 1: Expansion
A 6-month container with added spaciousness and integration
This tier includes everything from Foundations, with more access to help you move through life in real time. Ideal if you’re ready to stop circling the same emotional terrain and begin living your shifts — not just processing them.
Deep enough to hold real transformation, with room to integrate. Less circling, more landing.
-
Biweekly 60 minute 1:1 sessions (2x/mo)
Plus, three 30-minute anchoring sessions to use any time in the 6mo
2x/wk “office hours” for ongoing voice/text support
~30 hours of individualized support
Investment: $5,500
At my hourly therapy rate, this level of support would total over $6,700.
If you’re ready to safely land and begin the un-doing, book your connection call.
🪴 Tier 2: Immersion
A 9-month high-touch transformation container
This tier is designed for the one who’s all in. The one who’s ready to be changed by the work. And together, we’ll go deep without rushing, stay long enough to witness real change, and give your nervous system space to integrate.
To be held, witnessed, and resourced in the full unfolding of your becoming.

The Groundwork is a space that was built to hold all the parts of you other spaces haven’t known what to do with.
It’s not coaching.
It’s not traditional therapy.
It’s slow, integrative care rooted in depth psychology, Human Design, and the sacred intelligence of your lived experience.
I don’t sit across from you with a checklist.
I sit beside you.
In the nuance, the mystery, and the moments that don’t quite make sense.
And together, we stay there as long as needed.
I’m a trained clinical psychologist.
So yes, my clinical training informs how I hold space. But to me, these are not protocols to implement, but rather guideposts and tools to meet you where you are — and help take you where you want to be.
If you're curious, I draw from:
CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy)
ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy)
IFS (internal family systems, or parts work)
PRT (pain reprocessing therapy)
Nervous system education
Biofeedback
Clinical hypnosis
Somatic integration
But also, I’ve walked this path, too.
With grief, fire, and wonder. And the will to keep going.
I’m a recovering perfectionist who still struggles with my inner 7-year-old throwing a tantrum when she’s reminded of a time — way back when — that she didn’t feel seen.
The difference now is that I can sit with her, tend to her. Know that my true self is a grounded place within me that doesn’t have to get hijacked by an inner child.
I know how disorienting real transformation can be.
And how much it matters to not go through it alone.
I designed The Groundwork to be a space where others can can come home to themselves — without rushing the journey, or doing it alone.
Where you can bring the mess and the magic and be seen fully.
…a space where others can receive the kind of steady, sacred care I once needed, too.
Because you don’t need more tools.
You need a space that holds all of you as you learn to trust yourself again.
That’s what we build here — together.
Are you so ready for this?
(It’s 100% ok to say “not yet.” 🩵)
But if this work is calling to you, I couldn’t be more thrilled (and humbled) to share it with you. ✨
When you’re ready to take the first step, I invite you to book your connection call. This work is intimate - and it matters that we both feel grounded and clear before moving forward.

Either way, I’ve got you.
A note about what this is — and what it isn’t
This is integrative healing.
not therapy. not coaching. not performance.
You’ve been there, done that, and got too many t-shirts. So I know you’re not looking for the same thing over again.
You don’t want more tools and skills that live separate from your emotions or your body.
You don’t want someone who just parrots reflections back to you or lets you vent for an hour only to feel worse when you leave.
You’re looking for a place where all of you can be safely seen, undone, and rebuilt — back to your true nature once again.
And The Groundwork just might be the place. It’s also important you know what to - and not to - expect from mind-body integration work.
-
– A slow, steady space built around your pacing, your process, and your inner wisdom
– A sacred container for integrating what you already know… not rushing to know more
– A space that believes in your innate wholeness, even in the messiest parts
– Nervous-system safe. Trauma-aware. Spiritually attuned.
– Personalized and responsive, not prescriptive or rigid
– Rooted in deep presence, not performance
– A place where your truth gets to land — fully, finally, and without apology
– An invitation to stop “doing” healing… and start being in it -
– A space for fixing, diagnosing, or pathologizing
– A program that promises 10 steps to your best life
– A performance zone where you have to show up polished and articulate
– Coaching that pushes you past your limits for the sake of "breakthroughs"
– A place where you’re handed the workbook and expected to figure it all out alone
– Therapy as you might have known it (through the medical model)
– A container where insight is the end point (actually living is)
– Another thing to add to your list of “self-improvement” efforts
– A therapy model designed designed for reimbursement; this space isn’t built around diagnosis, it’s built around devotion
This isn’t about being ready or fixed.
It’s about being met fully, fiercely, and without apology.
You don’t need another plan. Or to be “more healed.”
You need space to stop shape shifting and finally belong to yourself.
If this is the transformation you’re seeking, let’s talk.
Signs the Transformation is Taking Root
This work isn’t about quick wins or high-fives. (Although those are great, too!) It’s about coming home to yourself.
Here are some of the quiet shifts and brave recognitions my clients have shared that signal deep integration is unfolding:
This work isn’t about becoming a new person.
It’s about shedding the layers of conditioning that taught you to be anything but yourself.
It’s about having the tools — and the trust — to meet life as it comes.
And knowing you don’t have to do that alone.
