ABOUT NOAH
My work is creative, curious and holds individual healing as sacredly interconnected with collective transformation. I believe accessing places & spaces of knowing, wisdom and belonging that are erased by colonialism, white supremacy, capitalism, ableism, patriarchy and more, is a key part of reclaiming wholeness and showing up to meet the present moment.
My previous work has included serving as a licensed associate mental health counselor, director for a non-profit employment services organization, coordinator for Somatic Experiencing trainings, play therapist for preschoolers, grief counselor for children, and consultant focusing on trauma resiliency and equity.
To read about my own personal journey with somatic work, see my blog post here.
