Liberative Somatic Psychotherapy & Spiritual Support

​As a psychotherapist, as a spiritual teacher, and as a person, I like to get to the root of things.

I don't mess around with superficiality, with quick fixes or with bypasses. This is how I ended up walking the path of awakening, and why offering this path to others who wish to deeply heal is the only thing that makes sense for me.

Awakening is a word that conjures up lots of different things for people. What I mean in using that word is that I support my clients and students in recognizing the true nature of the mind and of the separate self sense. I support my clients in trusting that which lies outside of our conditioned belief systems, in trusting the wisdom of their bodies and the wisdom of love. 

It's one thing to have an experience of deep recognition of reality, and quite another to live from this recognition in each moment. Integrating and embodying the awakened perspective is what leads to a deeper and more stable experience of peace in each moment, and this is what I offer. 

Awakening is no joke. These days, it's even more challenging. I have particular expertise in the challenges modern Westerners face in shifting their perspective in the way awakening asks. Our egos often need healing before they can take in Reality, as it truly is. Our egos often need to know their worthiness, to develop a sense of inner safety, to face their fears, and so on, before they can go beyond worthiness and worthlessness, can make space for the reality of death, and are willing to be themselves, whatever that means.

To support egoic healing, I rely on trauma work (primarily Somatic Experiencing
® and Organic Intelligence), parts work (Internal Family Systems), masculine-feminine rebalancing work, spiritual bypassing work, relational work, nature work and working to dismantle oppressive paradigms within the psyche.

I want to help you heal and transfom to the fullest extent possible. I want to support you in recognizing the peace that already pervades your experience. I want to support you in going beyond the incredible amounts of un-truth that characterize modern culture and our modern conditioning. I want to support you in seeing the incredible beauty and goodness in that which you run from in yourself. I want to support you in being who you are, without fear.

If this work speaks to you, I'd love to hear from you! Feel free to explore my website where I discuss my approach and my own story in more detail. And please contact me if you would like to make an appointment or have questions.


Wishing you the healing you're seeking.

Warmly,
Kristin

“Many of us assume that taking ourselves apart will be a spiritual adventure. It is fascinating to discover what we are and the causes and conditions in which we arise – but we expect something to catch us at the end. We might be willing to deconstruct ourselves if everything else in our world remained intact, or we might be willing to dismantle everything else as long as we remained intact, but disassembling both can seem pointless and scary. What is left of our world, what is left of “me”?

If it were not for the compelling force of the heart, few of us would venture into this arena, but the heart holds not only the urge to move beyond the perception of separation but also the safety of its own love. And that is why we move: for the resolution of the heart and the fulfillment and embodiment of love.”

I made this video to give visitors here a better sense of who I am and what I offer. Enjoy!

Sometimes it is necessary
to reteach a thing its loveliness,
to put a hand on its brow,
and retell it in words and in touch,
it is lovely,
until it flowers again from within, of self-blessing.
