". . . The body reflects attitudes of the mind, improve the body and you must improve the mind." Moshe Feldenkrais
In my work over the past 25 years, I have found that two primary abilities are present for physical, emotional and spiritual well-being.
Just Being: The ability to let go of all unnecessary contractions and to just be present in the moment. This can be called trust and also being safe in oneself.
Awareness in Motion: The other ability is to apply awareness to all forms of movement whether it is the movement of thought, emotion, the breath or intention.
In my work, I see the body, mind and spirit as an interrelated whole.
When I do Gestalt counseling, awareness oriented bodywork, Feldenkrais® or Anat Baniel Methodsm lessons I am working with the dynamic relationship of these two skills, just being and awareness in motion, and the myriad possibilities for growth and health in each person. As Moshe Feldenkrais said, "If you know what you do, you can do what you want."
For the past ten years I have focused my training and practice on facilitating learning and functional improvements in children and adults. The Anat Baniel Method for Childrensm, based on the work of Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais, can be quick in its effectiveness for children with disabilities, teaching new options for thinking, feeling and movement.
By replicating the remarkable ways that healthy children explore, children with disabilities can learn new varieties of movement and to use their natural curiosity to help them explore their world in new ways. In a similar way, adults and elders who wish to regain the suppleness of youthful movement can learn to move with freedom and ease.

| One of the necessities of youth is continued learning. Using movement, we can keep the body and the brain supple and responsive by relearning movements that are present in youth but are relinquished with age. I structure these lessons to enhance the learning processes in the areas that are essential to health and vitality. |

| Gestalt psychotherapy is a unique and creative approach which becomes a powerful therapeutic modality when combined with radical respect. Through this method I offer creative tools to explore the present and to facilitate awareness and self discovery. |
| I offer the Gestalt method in both bodywork and psychotherapy sessions. |
