Working together to build a cohesive healing network
For the healers, practitioners, and organizations working at the edge of what current frameworks can hold
It Takes a Village — And the Village Needs a Guide
We are living through a moment of change at a pace, scale, and impact that has no precedent in recorded history. The people showing up in therapy offices, meditation centers, retreat spaces, and healing practices are carrying more than personal trauma histories. They are carrying the weight of a world in radical transition — and the frameworks most practitioners were trained in were not built to meet that.
This is where I come in.
I offer expert consultation and collaboration for clinicians, organizations, and spiritual centers working at the intersection of trauma and awakening. I bring over 30 years of hard-earned experience — forged in clinical rooms, contemplative practice, cross-cultural fieldwork, and direct encounter with the full spectrum of human suffering — to the practitioners and spaces doing this work alongside me.

Working with complex trauma, dissociation, or clients whose healing is touching the edges of spiritual awakening? I offer collaborative consultation that goes beyond clinical case review. I bring the DTI framework, the Dynamic Processing Method, and an awakening-informed lens to the questions your training didn't prepare you for — where trauma and spiritual emergence overlap, where standard interventions plateau, where something more is being asked of both you and your client.
I also collaborate directly with care teams — other providers, healers, teachers, family, and friends — to ensure the people in my clients' lives are working in the same direction.

Bring Dynamic Trauma Integration into your practice, clinic, or healing center. I work at both the organizational and individual practitioner level — helping teams develop a coherent, awakening-informed approach to trauma care that meets the complexity of what their clients are actually carrying.

Meditation centers, retreat centers, religious organizations, and contemplative communities are increasingly encountering practitioners whose spiritual practice is intersecting with unresolved trauma — sometimes dangerously. I serve as your trauma expert: helping you understand what is trauma and what isn't, how to support practitioners safely through difficult territory, and how to build a container that can hold both the depth of the practice and the reality of what people bring to it.
Why this matters to me
I spent years in various roles, including leadership positions, in non-profits, community clinics, universities, government agencies, for-profit businesses, and international humanitarian agencies. I regularly had to choose between the care a child actually needed and the numbers required to keep the doors open, and my own wellbeing versus the wellbeing of the organization. Those experiences experience - what clinicians call moral injury - is the primary reason I left systemic work and build Dynamic Trauma Integration: a model that doesn’t ask anyone, client or clinician, to choose between integrity and survival. If your organization is trying to build something sustainable for the people you serve and the people doing the serving, that is exactly the kind of partnership I want to be a part of today.
