My practice centers around Organic Intelligence© (OI), a somatic talk therapy technique. OI taps into the natural intelligence already living inside you, living in your biology's own rhythmic symphony–the natural experience of resilience, growth, and compassion.
As a certified OI coach, I use a free-association conversation to help you build initial conditions that allow you to access more presence, pleasure and compassion.
In a session, I'm looking to support your own knowing. Your whole being is invited to a session: your beautiful mind, your heart, and your body. I may offer writing prompts, guided visualizations, work with archetypes, or invite you to explore body movements that have emerged in our conversation.
Weaving with all the parts of you is how we soften into creativity.
Who is this for?
The short answer: everyone. As a coach, I integrate the principles of OI in supporting creative expression. So if you're wanting to explore a creative side of yourself, already a practicing artist, or are just looking for something to help you live a more fulfilling life, you'll probably enjoy what I offer.
Many of us have creative insecurities and if we're not generating income through artmaking, we often don't see ourselves as artists. I'd like to gently propose that art is inherently about healing. It's about expression and giving voice to the unknown, unfamilmiar parts of ourselves so that they might be lit up with love.
This work can support you in creating easeful, playful, and joyful art and work. As a queer artist of mixed ancestry, I offer you a container to explore and name all the parts of you that want to be integrated.
For years, I've also volunteered as creative coach for teens through CoachArt, an organization that connects students suffering from chronic illness with interdisciplinary coaches. I've learned that OI can be a great opportunity for creative folks of all ages to deepen their creative practice and support emotional and mental wellbeing.
