about
Hi, I’m Christy. I’m really glad you’re here.
Like many people who find their way to this work, my path wasn’t linear. It was shaped by motherhood, loss, and a deep reckoning with what it actually takes to feel safe and whole in the body again.
Becoming a mother changed everything: my body, my identity, my relationships, and my relationship with myself. On the surface, I looked fine. Inside, I was navigating profound isolation and a kind of quiet despair that’s hard to put into words. Traditional talk therapy helped me understand what was happening, but it didn’t help my nervous system feel safe enough to change.
What ultimately shifted things for me was discovering a more embodied, integrative approach to healing. One that worked with the body, not just the mind. Through mindful microdosing support alongside relational, somatic work, I experienced a level of regulation and self-trust I hadn’t known before. For the first time, I wasn’t just understanding my patterns. I was rewriting them.
Years later, I moved through another major transition marked by grief, identity loss, and the unraveling of a long-term partnership. That season deepened my respect for pacing, integration, and support that doesn’t rush transformation. It reinforced what I already knew to be true: meaningful change happens when the nervous system feels safe enough to soften, not when it’s pushed to perform healing.
That period taught me something I carry into all of my work now: the difference between moving through grief and trying to move past it.
I learned how to sit with what was real. The sensations. The waves of emotion. The fear. The tenderness. I learned how to do this without collapsing into it or rushing myself toward resolution. Over time, I came to trust that grief has its own intelligence. When it’s met with safety and presence, it doesn’t need to be forced out of the way. It completes itself.
And just as importantly, I learned how to recognize when that completion had occurred. When honoring the grief no longer meant staying inside it, but allowing life to expand again. There comes a point in healing where the work isn’t about processing anymore. It’s about living. Letting pleasure, creativity, movement, and forward motion return without guilt.
Today, my work centers that understanding.
I work with people across a wide range of identities, relationship structures, and lived experiences. This includes supporting those navigating postpartum, grief, loss, and major life transitions, as well as people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected in the pace of modern life.
My approach is grounded, relational, and paced. It draws from somatic practices, EFT, and integration-focused support. When appropriate, I also offer guidance around intentional microdosing, always with care, discernment, and respect for individual readiness.
At the heart of my work is a simple rhythm I refer to as Ground + Rise. We begin by slowing down, stabilizing the nervous system, and rebuilding trust within the body. From that foundation, change emerges naturally, without forcing, fixing, or bypassing what needs to be felt.
I don’t believe healing is something to rush or optimize. I believe it’s something to listen to.
If you’re moving through change, or feeling the quiet pull toward more ease, creativity, and life, welcome.
