What is the role of the body and DMT in your practice?: As a somatic-focused, polyvagal-informed movement therapist, I use Dance Movement Therapy to support clients in accessing, expressing, and processing difficult emotions and trauma held in the body. We work with embodying emotion - through movement, touch, stillness, breath, and creative expression - to restore safety, agency, and connection. I’m also a bodywork practitioner myself, drawing on personal practices like swimming, Carnatic vocal music, Kalaripayat, and Alexander Technique/Feldenkrais to stay attuned to my own body’s intelligence and rhythm.
