Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.
If you’re feeling like so many in these uncertain times—anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, disembodied, or simply “off”—I’ve written something that just might help you return to a truer, steadier, and more alive version of yourself.
For many years, I felt disconnected from myself and others because I lived in a state of chronic fight-or-flight, which manifested as a rare body-focused repetitive behavior (BFRB). The standard therapeutic approaches proved ineffective, and I’d all but given up hope of feeling at home in my own body when I stumbled upon my first somatic practice. I’ve been exploring somatic methods and embodied living ever since—even becoming a certified Somatic Stress Release™ practitioner.
In Cutting Loose, I share how I reclaimed my body, my voice, and my life after being held captive for years by the coping responses that once protected me. If you’ve been searching for alternative, holistic pathways toward nervous system regulation and somatic healing, this book is for you. Cutting Loose will help you harness your body’s wisdom, break unhealthy coping patterns, and live with more ease, flow, and freedom.

A Little Pre-Pub Buzz…
“Deeply researched, disarmingly funny, and quietly revolutionary.”
—Jenny Porter, author of The Space Between
“Written with compassion and striking clarity, the book translates complex somatic ideas into language readers can truly grasp. Part memoir and part gentle guide, each chapter ends with a simple “Sense It for Yourself” somatic practice so readers can immediately apply what they’ve learned. The result is a deeply personal yet highly accessible guide to feeling more grounded, present, and alive.”
—Amy Smyth Miller, author of Home: A Memoir of Family, Forgiveness, and Healing from Complex PTSD
