Shadow Work Guide
Now Accepting ClientsMy work is grounded in the teachings of Barry Michels and Phil Stutz, integrating their practical, psychologically informed tools for transformation with a deeply compassionate, embodied approach to shadow work.
I specialize in guiding mothers and new mothers through the thresholds of identity, grief, and rebirth that accompany motherhood—the moments when who you’ve been and who you’re becoming meet in the dark.
Sessions: 50 minutes ($100/session)
