My Approach

I have been influenced in my work by my life experiences growing up in dictatorship in Chile, immigrating to USA in my 30’s, my roots and ancestry, my education and trainings, my healing journey, my mothering journey, and the learnings I have gotten from working with clients and students. My approach is body-based, brain-based and ancestry/systems based. I work one on one and I also teach yearly immersions and workshops, integrating tools and frames from a diverse array of approaches, but specially Somatic Experiencing, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy and Polyvagal Theory, all approaches proven to be highly effective in working with post-traumatic stress, chronic pain, autoinmune diseases, pre/perinatal and developmental trauma, complex trauma, transgenerational trauma and systemic trauma. I also draw deep wisdom from many other sources but principally from my ancestral roots from Southamerica, Spain and Eastern Europe folk wisdom.
