About me

Body-mind connection fascinates me and evokes my curiosity since my youth.

In the last 17 years, I follow this curiosity and study conventional and non-conventional therapies.

​

My education started with psychology studies. I was always curious about different therapy modalities and was naturally pulled to experience and explore; I did many additional pieces of training in things like Family constellation, group processes & psychodrama, Non-violence communication, Bach flowers, and Theta Healing. 

I studied with Dr. Arnold Holtzman the creator of Psycho-diagnostic Chirology (PDC). Later enrolled in Transpersonal Psychotherapy. 

​

But in 2012 I reached a breaking point, Psychology studies, and transpersonal psychotherapy didn’t satisfy my curiosity.

It all felt very mental for me and I missed the body.

​

Movement and the body were always a big part of my life.

I was gymnastic as a child, a daughter to a Feldenkrize® teacher, and later in my youth Yoga and Partner-Acrobatic came into my life, and naturally, I became a teacher. 

​

Between 2012-2015 I was working as a pedagogic leader, part of my role was to bring movement arts and art into the work with the children. 

In 2014 I formed groups for children and their parents for playful movement together, intending to strengthen their bond and connection. What later became 'Family Playground'.  

​

In 2013 chronic pain I carried since I was 15, erupted and completely changed my life.

I tried literally EVERYTHING to “fix it” but nothing lasted more than a few days.

Then I got an insight, My body doesn’t need to be fixed - it needs to Re-learn something.

It ended up being a life-changing process for me.

​

Since 2014, I offer bodywork therapy in my practice. 

​

From 2016 to 2020 I studied Somatic Developmental Psychology, 

at the Bodynamic International. 

​

I love to learn, and in the somatic field, I'm always also a student.

Continue to learn and develop in all the new discoveries and research that is available for us today. 

​

I believe pain, like many other physical & emotional reactions, is a symptom,

a sign, a call, a messenger,

a way for the body to ask for our attention.

​

But it was only a belief until it happened in my body.

I believe our bodies speak to us,
they are storytellers,
and they hold the memories of what we have forgotten.
they hold what we were afraid to express.

​

In our posture.

In the way, we hold ourselves.

In the way, we integrate stress.

In our sensory integration.

And also in our pains.

​

Looking forward to meeting you,
