Offerings

I offer several ways of working, depending on where you are and what kind of support is needed right now. Each offering has its own integrity. None are prerequisites for the others.

The throughline is the same: to help meaning land without collapsing the body that has to hold it.

Embodied Presence Coaching

Authentic presence under pressure is the ability to remain in the body while being seen.

Actors, athletes, dancers, and speakers all face the same pressure: attention is pulled forward toward outcome, judgment, and control. Under pressure, the body wants to rush, override sensation, or perform for approval.

Presence is not calm, and it is not confidence. It is precision—the capacity to stay with sensation and timing at the exact moment attention wants to leave.

When presence is intact, movement completes itself. Words land without force. Effort stays proportional to the task. Excellence does not come from pushing harder, but from abandoning oneself less.

I use the chakra system as somatic cartography and mapping tool, no belief required. It functions as a fast, embodied language for identifying where attention and effort are operating during performance. Rather than analyzing thoughts or emotions, I guide people to locate experience directly in the body: where effort pools, where breath restricts, where voice feels stuck, where force disconnects from grounding.

The chakra map offers a shared spatial framework for this process. Lower centers correspond to grounding and initiation; middle centers to breath, relational timing, and coordination; upper centers to articulation and orientation. The goal is not to try to "open" or "close" anything. It is more of a redistribution of attention so presence can return in the body.

This method becomes practical when people face the specific gravitational pull of being watched and feeling judged or rewarded by the weight of expectations. The pressure to perform well creates predictable energetic distortions: attention migrates upward and forward, breath becomes effortful and shallow, tension concentrates in shoulders and jaw, and timing accelerates beyond what the body can metabolize. The chakra framework lets us name and relocate these patterns quickly, restoring vertical integration so you can access your full range without fragmentation.

This work has become urgent.

We live in systems optimized for speed, visibility, and output—systems that function efficiently but are not calibrated for embodied presence. When performance becomes constant, attention migrates out of the body and into metrics, expectations, and future outcomes.

We may remain productive, articulate, and competent while quietly losing agency. Without embodied presence, we do not fail loudly; we comply smoothly.

Restoring presence is not about dramatic exit or total transformation. It is a slow process of working within the systems while learning what you actually want—of staying metabolically present long enough to feel the difference between compliant performance and authentic choice.

This is not resistance to modern life. It is the deliberate practice of not leaving yourself while participating in it. The aim is not to dismantle systems overnight, but to retain enough sensation to notice when you are abandoning yourself—and eventually, to stop doing that.

Over time, this noticing accumulates. You begin to recognize which performances cost more than they return. Which environments require constant self-override. Which relationships depend on your fragmentation. The work is not about refusing the world. It is about remaining present enough inside it to discover what you actually want—not what you've been trained to want.

The stakes are not individual comfort. The stakes are whether we retain the capacity to feel what we are doing while we are doing it—and therefore, whether we retain the capacity to choose.

Archetypal Identity Work

Archetypal Identity Work uses astrological symbolism as a reflective language for observing identity patterns across time, not as a predictive or belief-based system.

The chart functions as a symbolic index—a way of mapping recurring themes, tensions, and orientations that clients can compare against their lived experience.

Rather than interpreting symbols as literal truths, clients are guided to develop symbolic literacy: the ability to recognize how meaning, emotion, bodily states, and future expectations organize experience.

Astrology provides a shared symbolic grammar for noticing patterns; AIW provides the psychological and somatic process through which those patterns are integrated, revised, or released.

Reiki Sessions

(In Person Sessions Only)

Reiki is offered as a standalone practice for nervous system settling and restoration.

In this context, Reiki is not an explanation, belief system, or cure. It is a quiet, time-bound practice that allows the body to rest from constant self-management. Sessions are non-directive, with no expectation to process, perform, or arrive at insight.

Many people come simply needing space—less urgency, less internal pressure, more room.

Some clients engage Reiki on its own as a restorative practice. Others choose to integrate it with individual guidance or creative work. Neither path is assumed or required.

The intention is simple:
To offer a place where the body can stop carrying everything at once.

Teaching, Workshops & Collaboration

Group and institutional work exploring how attention, time, and responsibility shape both inner life and collective systems.

Offerings include:

  • workshops grounded in embodied inquiry and symbolic literacy

  • movement-based practices exploring how the body holds and releases time

  • retreats integrating theory with lived, time-bound application

  • speaking and consulting for organizations and creative partners

This work focuses on structure rather than sentiment—how systems distribute responsibility, absorb cost, and protect what cannot protect itself.

Across all contexts—individual, group, or institutional—the work remains the same…
