It is my mission to create spaces in this world where people can experience enough safety & belonging, and can gain enough skillfulness, to be able to heal. In terms of walking through the dark woods and returning with gifts, I am a living, breathing example, and this work is my offering to you. Through practices that work with the nervous system & rewiring the brain learned through my studies in Somatic Therapy, Attachment Theory, Healing Sexual Trauma, Deep Nature Connection, Craniosacral therapy, Shamanic Study, Tibetan Buddhism and Yoga, I’ve learned to support people to completely transform how they experience the world and themselves. A consent-based place where emotion is welcome.įor over 20 years, I’ve been working with grief & trauma.

Through the Dark Woods Membership Group is a carefully curated container to address grief in ALL its forms. Not to mention, we carry in our bodies the trouble in the world around us, seemingly not ours, yet still felt by our soul, our body, and our heart as we’re interconnected with all things. Yet with every loss, every life change and transition, every personal evolution, there is an emotional process that needs to unfold.Įven if we’re excited about moving in new directions, and becoming more of who we are, we need to release the energy of the person, life, and experiences that we’re leaving behind. In our culture, grief is only really discussed when someone dies. We can be feeling heartbreak, anger, resentment, stuckness, depression, and even anxiety and not realize that this is simply a form of unprocessed emotion. Sometimes we don’t know we’re stuck in grief. Other days, we find it hitting us like a tidal wave and taking us down to the ground. We can go through our days barely noticing that it’s there, under the surface of things. With every loss, every life change and transition, every personal evolution, every deep connection, there is an emotional process that needs to unfold.

The more we allow our “e-motion” to move in a skilled way, the more capacity we build in our nervous system to experience the full range of emotions – joy, anger, gratitude, sorrow, fear, courage, hopelessness and the creative tension of pure potentiality… we gain access to a full range of feeling our experience. I’m not saying we need to be sad all the time – no!Īs a grief-worker and therapist, I probably laugh more than most people I know. If we are sensitive and attuned to the reality of our current life on this beautiful planet, there will be grief alongside our love and gratitude for life. Not to mention the grief of the world around us, seemingly not ours, yet still felt by our soul, our body, and our hearts as we are interconnected with all things. When we make big life changes, even if we’re excited about moving in new directions, and becoming more of who we are, we need to grieve the person, life, and experiences that we’re leaving behind. If you have not yet attended one of these yet, please sign up HERE: You need to give it time and commitment, just like anything we want in life.Īnother reason we don’t offer refunds is because we offer a wonderful way for you to experience TTDW prior to joining via a monthly *prerequisite intro session, No Way But Through. Sometimes when we’re in the depths of despair it can feel like we will never have a different experience. Be willing to give it a fair go – this kind of deep work doesn’t’ transform us overnight – it is a long slow process, and it should be that way. We also want you to make that kind of commitment to your own healing. To help create that, when the core group welcomes someone new in, we want to know you are committed to at least journey a few months with us. It’s important to us to create a safe, supportive container for this deep work.
