Ojai Craniosacral Therapy

 


I help sensitive adults and children feel safer in their bodies through gentle craniosacral therapy.​ My work is rooted in​ presence,​ stillness, and trust in the body’s innate ​i​ntelligence to self-heal.

Craniosacral therapy is a subtle healing treatment that uses light touch to nurture the nervous system and support the body’s innate capacity for coherence and self-regulation. It support the innate intelligence of the original Self (Health) to emerge. Your body’s natural state is health. Health is ever present as the body is in a constant state of repair, regulation and regeneration. It is the intrinsic health of your human system, and Nature, which is always present supporting Life. The foundation of a treatment is the natural motion of the fluids surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Fluid can be seen everywhere in Nature as the carrier of life. In craniosacral work, we listen to these subtle rhythms — the membranes, cerebrospinal fluid, bones, and connective tissues that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.

Clients describe experiences like:

  • Feeling “on edge” even when life looks fine

  • Holding chronic tension, pain, illness, or fatigue without a clear cause

  • Difficulty settling, sleeping, or staying present

  • A sense of being disconnected from the body or self

  • Sensitive children who struggle to regulate, relax, or feel at ease

I work slowly and with great care, following the cues of your nervous system. Nothing is forced. There is no protocol. Instead, we create space for what is ready to shift to do so in its own timing. I hold a deep respect for the body’s innate intelligence — the understanding that when the nervous system feels safe enough, it already knows how to move toward wholeness.

Clients describe this work as calming, regulating, and quietly profound often feeling more like a remembering than a treatment. Some clients experience this work as more than physical, often describing a deeper sense of connection or wholeness.

 
 

Children, especially sensitive ones, communicate primarily through their bodies.

Whether your child is experiencing tension, difficulty settling, emotional overwhelm, or challenges following birth, my intention is always the same: to help their nervous system feel safe enough to soften and reorganize naturally. Parents are welcome to be present and involved throughout the process.

Each session is unique, guided by what your body—or your child’s body—is ready for that day. My approach:

  • ​I work with presence, not force

  • I listen to inherent intelligence, not pathology

  • ​I trust the body’s inner ordering principle

  • ​I create safety so healing can arise, not be imposed

If you are seeking a gentler approach—one that honors sensitivity, respects the nervous system, and trusts the body’s innate intelligence—you are welcome here.

You don’t need to know exactly what you’re looking for to begin.
Sometimes the first step is simply finding a place that feels safe enough.
