Ethical Commitments in my Practice
My healing work is infinitely holistic. I understand that healing is not limited to the individual experience, and that the collective field is at work during the session, which includes the trauma and oppression inherited from societal and ancestral forces. It is my hope that my work can transcend individual sessions and touch collective change- that healing our individual nervous systems also heals a greater, social nervous system. The mission of my practice is to move us towards a more integrated, healthy, and peaceful world.
I invite clients from all races, genders, identities, body types, socio-economic brackets, and backgrounds to receive this work.
In my practice and life, I stand firmly with Black Lives Matter and am continually working with anti-racism in my practice, which includes learning, growing, and the understanding that I may not get it right all the time.
What this looks like:
Offering donation-based and per diem craniosacral work for BIPOC, LGBTQA+, performing artists, and others in need (email me to discuss)
Integrating the tenets of craniosacral work into collective healing. My practice works with the understanding of and being with a slower, paced unfoldment of deep change
Continual education in anti-racist work
Continual healing of my own inherent biases and white ancestral lineages
Collaboration with other white healing arts professionals in implementing anti-racist work in our practices
Commitment to decolonizing craniosacral work by excavating the hidden Indigenous roots of craniosacral
Within my practice, the constant remembering that my clients bodies hold resilience and wisdom- letting the body be the most intelligent force in the room to guide the session.
Searching for and implementing inclusive vocabulary to reduce harm in the classroom and the clinic
Paying land tax for running a business on colonized Wabanaki territory
My future plans include:
Starting a scholarship fund for BIPOC to access craniosacral training
