Hi, I’m Denise
I work with women and gender non-conforming femmes of color both personally and collectively to:
- heal interpersonal and intergenerational trauma
- create new consensual culture and interdependence
- decolonize our wellness and worthiness.
I do this through group programs, monthly healing circles, 1:1 somatic healing work and community-building trainings.
My site is currently moving through a transition, do come back later for more about me and what I do.

![Hey y’all.
I’m alive.
Doing better.
Swimming through some old stuff.
Practicing rest.
January was a sprint that filled my soul and emptied my vessel.
Growing my resilience and taking up space in the tightness of internalized shame.
Advocating for me, for us.
Holding space for my BIPOC clients.
Making space for worthiness and neediness.
Erotic dancing.
Asserting my boundaries.
Making my value known and accounted for.
Listening in on Clubhouse.
Sometimes hyper-expressing myself.
Sometimes saying exactly what was needed.
Turning the soil and planting new seeds.
Feeling my way for right pace and right distance.
Growing a relationship with accountability.
Breaking patterns of codependency.
Re-committing to ritual and rhythm, sensing for the ripples and tides.
Getting real comfortable with not knowing, honoring my capacities, limited as it may be.
Staying in my lane, which really means staying focused on my goals, my vision, my zone of genius.
Excited for what’s to come. Like really, really excited.
Grateful for my peoples, my community who has got me through these times.
Grateful for parallel processing, mirroring and reassurance.
Grateful for my privileges and putting it to use.
Grateful grateful grateful.
