Repatterning For Resilience is for any body who has had a parent/caregiver and for any parent/caregiver who has a body. It is through the body that we heal intergenerational trauma and repattern for resilience. And it is through our first relationships that we learn to embody a sense of ourselves and to begin to relate and move through the world. The way that we learn to move and to connect underlies our lifelong patterns. I work with patterns of pain and discomfort in the body as well as reactivity and disconnection in the parent-child relationship by supporting individuals and families with a a synthesis of the lived experience of my own trauma recovery and my studies and practice of dance, Somatic Experiencing®, Rolfing® Structural Integration, Rolf Movement®, Aware Parenting, Heart to Heart Parenting, Polyvagal Theory, The Hakomi Method, Body-Mind Centering® and Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy to repattern toward more ease, alignment, attunement, co-regulation and a felt sense of safety and goodness.

Sometimes I'm ambivalent about social media, and I hardly ever post on my business pages because I'm not creating content and it's hard to find (or to create) content that speaks to the message that I now want to convey.

Repatterning and reparenting the the body, mind, and family system.

So much of it comes down to experiences that shift perception. And these guys get it!

Imagine what kind of world we could have if all parents got this kind of support from the very start...

There was a rift awhile back in a parenting community (that I'm not longer a part of) over the words "regulation" and "co-regulation". The thought was that this was about teaching children to shut down their emotions.

No, not at all...

It's about having the safety and connection for those emotions to flow so that they can be metabolized and hopefully, resolved. And this is a process that will happen over and over again.

It is lifelong learning. Sometimes we do this for ourselves through self-regulation, but we will continue to need other sources for co-regulation outside of those first and primary relationships where it all begins.

Parenting in Process 💕

If you're like me your news feed is full of memes about trauma, attachment wounds, healing, and resilience... I don't share many of them these days...

But I wanted to be sure to pass this one on.

And I will tell you that unraveling attachment/developmental trauma is a lifelong process, but it does get better!

Safe and loved. 🔒❤️

I know that I cannot let in nourishment when I'm exhausted...

An inquiry. We will not move towards liberation from an exhausted state. It’s just not possible. We must rest. We Will Rest!

From my conversation on .the.wild last summer. The link is in bio to listen.

Yep...

Yep...

but almost all mental health professionals only apply it to kids with RAD and not their parents. Of course, it’s true for RAD kids. But it’s equally true for their disbelieved, maligned, and (in some situations) abused parents. How about therapists start validating the experiences of parents too?!?

Sometimes, this is what resilience looks like.

Our Story

Kinnect is all about moving into connection. Many of the parents I work with are already on board with connection-based parenting, but they are struggling with their own trauma histories and resultant reactivity or shut down which gets in the way of building the relationship they truly want with their children. I support families through mind-body connection, giving mothers and other caregivers a path toward self-acceptance through somatic practices, allowing for greater connection, co-regulation and mutual delight in the parent-child relationship. My work with families is connection-based, trauma-informed and polyvagal-aware and draws from my training in Aware Parenting, Developmental Movement Education, Somatic Experiencing and The Hakomi Method. It is also informed by my 25 year career as a dancer and movement educator and 10 years as a bodyworker.

Since I started developing my approach in 2010 when I became a somatic practitioner and parenting educator, Kinnect has evolved along with my personal growth and healing process as the parent of two children and as a survivor of early trauma and loss. My experiences of parenting my children with their unique needs along with my own trauma responses has been my greatest teacher. My first child had sensory processing issues, anxiety, and OCD, and then my second child had a significant tongue tie and related issues. My studies in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy and Developmental Movement Education went a long way toward supporting my girls, but what I discovered was that I needed more support as a parent, specifically with nervous system regulation. I am currently training in Somatic Experiencing, a form of trauma resolution through the felt sense of the body, and it has proven to be the unifying force in all the work that I do with individuals and families as well as a catalyst for healing the cycle of inter-generational trauma in my family.

The way that we learn to move, to sense ourselves and the world around us and to relate to others lays the foundation for our lifelong patterns. Ultimately my work is about re-patterning and re-parenting through the mind-body and parent-child connection. I hope to support parents to see their relationship with their children as a resource where they can feel good and stop looking for what’s wrong. I do this through several offerings including:


  • Somatic Integration and Parenting Support for co-regulation, playfulness and somatic attunement in the parent-child relationship
