Heart-centered, embodied practices to help you stay healthy and resilient
in these challenges times.
Self-Healing Coaching, Body-Centered Counseling, Reiki and more
Zoom and other platforms have been such a blessing in these times – giving us access to connection and resources that would otherwise be impossible.
While not the same as hands-on bodywork, there is a lot that I can offer through online video sessions.
I studied body-centered trauma healing work more than 20 years ago, and have been guiding groups and individuals in learning stress reduction and self-healing practices for even longer.
This body of experience, combined with my more recent training in both Shamanic Reiki and Focusing Oriented Therapy, give me a broad range of skills and experience that can add support for a wide range of life challenges.

Stuart has been great in adapting what we do in his office for video sessions. Our recent session combined focused breathing, self-massage, movement and counseling and left me feeling much more relaxed and balanced than I was when we started. Continuing our weekly meetings remotely has supported my personal efforts to maintain a sound mind and body during this stressful and surreal time.

Together, we’ll develop a set of custom-tailored body-mind-spirit practices – that we’ll explore together, so you can use them on your own - to support your capacity to be your best Self even as you live with challenges.
The elements of these practices have been at the heart of my work from the beginning – integrated into my private sessions, as well as offered in a range of group settings since the 1990’s, and include:
Meditation and awareness practices
Self-massage and acupressure
Focused stretching, yoga postures and other therapeutic movement practices
Sound-healing and breath work
Spiritual direction and prayer
Suggestions for journalling and other expressive arts or ritual practices
…. and for the adventurous or curious:
Shamanic Journeying
Earth/Nature Energy/Spirit Attunement practices
Spirit Guide and Power Animal Attunement practices
These session can be integrated with distant healing Reiki, a surprisingly potent and effective way of working.
Audio and/or video recordings can be made to support your home practice following our time together.
