My Body and My Work are at once Archive and Oracle
My approach moves like a river, drawing from Buddhism, traditional medicine, psychological and somatic practices, and a trauma- and systems-informed perspective. Each tradition informs, supports, challenges, and invites the others into further conversation.
Rooted in ritual and grounded in earth practices, in dialogue with Eastern and Western lineages, alongside neuroscience and in communion with the unseen, this approach tends to both the wounded personal psyche and the divided collective body.
As a mixed caste, queer, non-binary person, I am committed to the inseparability of personal liberation and kinship - in echo and in divergence. I am committed to placing these lineages in dialogue so we may co-remember our wholeness.
Tibetan Vajrayana (Tantra) Buddhism
I am trained in the Gelug, Dzogchen and Chöd traditions of Vajrayana Buddhism. I am supported by my relationships to the natural, ancestral and spirit worlds.
Trauma-Informed Somatic Approach
I hold with complexity of trauma - developmental, relational and social - without erasing or oversimplifying.
Systems-Informed Liberatory Practice
I explore how trauma and transformation move through the body in relational, collective, and political contexts. I am invested in tending to inter-generational grief and ancestral gifts, centering the body’s role as the site of liberation.
