I'm not in the business of instigating change. I am in the delicate and complex work of allowing and empowering it. Because I feel that ultimately, YOU have the wisdom and the power to bring about the changes you need; Because change is YOUR work and your choice, my role is to set the stage, in some instances empty it, explore what stands in the way, discover with you all the options and possibilities for change. Ultimately, you decide. The fact that you are here already ensures it. My job is to notice it, observe it, reflect it, and honor it. In this space, I have seen amazing change happen. Holding you Tenderly, Tania

Why
WHY A YEAR LONG STRUCTURE?
WHO ARE YOU? ( NEW CLIENT )
You are a busy individual who don't have time for weekly individual appointments. You want the time you spend in session today be expedited and potent.
You are a highly functional, achieving individual who talks circles around your talk therapist. You don't need a friend, just a safe, competent container to explore, return to yourself. Your therapist is highly skilled and competently invisible because your relationship with you is the most important.
You have a highly defended and impenetrable protectors guards. You need a medicine container that can bypass your brilliant brain and have you connect to your nervous system directly.
You have done years of therapy and cycled through impressive modalities and you need a place to flush out residual somatic traumatic memories.
​
You want all your work in the mysterious space of medicine, witnessed, documented and integrated in the big picture of your healing journey in one place.
WHO ARE YOU ( OLD CLIENT )
You are ready to dedicate a year long consistent container to get to know, return and to explore your nervous system.
You are intending for 2025 to be a year where you will encounter your trauma differently.
​
Healing is not guaranteed. But our commitment to healing is. A year long container is a commitment to yourself to a consistent, systematic container of exploration. Amidst crazy demands, work schedules, you are deterto set aside a time once a month to really listen to your body.
​
​
Why an Intensive: Because our bodies have well oiled defenses that zip back up after each journey and inviting it to relax requires a cumulative invitation
​
​
Containers
3: is good for targeted trauma and a continuous inquiry. The intention of 3 encloses a self contained arc where we get to see the work at a cummulation point. Designed for focussed work with clear goals. The 3 package is designed for excavation and exploration of a set of known somatic symptoms
6 respects the rhythm of the body, allowing for more the ebb and flow of the nervous system. Here medicine is used for both resourcing and trauma work. With more space in the schedule and container, 6 sessions allow for the body to integrate within the container and seal in resources in medicine as well as process trauma.
12 is a commitment to yourself. It takes medicine and transforms it into a spiritual practice. My yearlong clients commit to the a monthly pause, inquiry and cleanse of micro-trauma that might be stuck in the nervous system. 12 is a decision of self-care and a surrender to mystery and the power of intention during this uncertain time, that for a year we will be pausing the mind and listening to the body for both resources and trauma.

Whether in medicine, in couples counseling or in trauma work - I am moving deftly and swiftly through 14 years of experience with a skill-set that enlarges every year.
​
HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM DRUGS I DID WHEN PARTYING?
Every research article will tell you that set and setting determines the efficacy and experience of the same dosage and type of drug. What differentiates drugs from medicine is the intention of it being used for your trauma work and healing. The power of intention on the subconscious changes the experience.
​
WHY CAN'T I DO THIS MEDICINE ALONE OR WITH MY FRIENDS?
Our nervous system has spent years in survival mode. Our protectors and defense strategies are trained to stand guard. From personal experience, I have been surprised at how deep and far my nervous system is willing to go in the in the given the right skills and container. We will only go as far as we feel safe to go. Also when the trauma vortex opens, safety, skills and support is key for complete resolution.
