About
I graduated from the Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy in 2006. Later that year, I was introduced to CranioSacral Therapy and it quickly became my passion. I immersed myself in CST that year and earned my techniques certification through the Upledger Institute. I teach the CST Overview class and am a certified teaching assistant. The CST study group I run is currently on hold, but I offer private mentoring for students and CST practitioners.
I have my own practice with an office in downtown New London.
My Skills
My preferred modality is CranioSacral Therapy, including SomatoEmotional Release (SER). Trauma is often retained in body tissue, and typically has an emotional component. By listening carefully to the body, I can help facilitate the client's own deep releases. I include other modalities during my CST sessions. My introduction into healing work, prior to massage school, was with Traditional Chinese Medicine. I attended several seminars and took classes for a year at Acupuncture, Shiatsu, and Oriental Medicine of New England, LLC. I regularly use both meridian theory and five-element theory. I have also studied Lymphatic Drainage with the Chikly Health Institute and Visceral Manipulation through the Barral Institute. I use energy techniques when they seem appropriate.
