Welcome, I'm Taunē
Psychotherapist, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner & Facilitator
For those who move fast and crave depth, this is a place to exhale. ​
In a world that often prioritizes logic, productivity, and control, the right brain: the realm of deep feeling, imagination, embodied knowing, and interconnectedness, is often dismissed. Yet, this is where meaning lives.
​
Together, we bridge intellect with intuition, thought with feeling, and hold that love is an action. We feel into what actually nourishes you. We meet the moment through embodied reverence and playful curiosity.
​
​
​
The Root of Psychology is Psyche, the Greek word for Soul.
Maybe for you, this ineffable experience is called love, the Universe, God, Allah, Jesus, the sacred, the source, the mystery, the laws of nature, Buddha, true nature, Self, vibes, the heart, or something else entirely…
Whatever you call it, you know what it is.
-
It’s that feeling when you witness a heartbreakingly stunning sunset.
-
When you fall into an intimate moment so deep that time ceases to exist.
-
When you look into your child’s or niece’s eyes and, for a fleeting second, remember what it was like to be that close to the miracle of becoming.
I believe we are meant to experience those moments of awe far more often than we do.
But life moves, and suddenly, we’re the mouse chasing the cheese.
Just as easily as we hurry, run, chase, build, and numb—we can be still.
And how powerful it is when we do.​
​
For those who think deeply, feel deeply, and lead boldly—this is a space to unravel, reimagine, and reconnect.
​
Austrian Neurologist and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl is often attributed to the quote, "Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom."
Heartful inquiry helps to create that space, where you may now create in a way that feels most authentic to your truest self.
I believe this interior spaciousness is created not by denying, rejecting, or repressing, but by acknowledging and accepting each and every part of ourselves. Even the parts we're not so proud of.
​
Becoming cognizant of our core feelings and limiting (or encouraging) beliefs, as well as our deepest feelings, values, and needs is how I see that we can shed the layers of everything that we are not, and become more of what we really are.
Introspective work doesn't begin and end in the therapy room. I hold that the more we untangle inner barriers to love, the more we can untangle those barriers on the outside too. The secure base and inner liberating awareness we create for ourselves can enable us to truly, intimately connect with others, and to effect positive, caring change - within ourselves and our communities.
It's like electricity, we don't really know what it is, but it's a force that can light a room.
The force radiates from a sense of selfhood, a sense of knowing where you've been and what it means.
Soul is a way of life.
Ray Charles
"The doors to the world of the wild self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door; if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much that you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.”
Clarissa Pinkola Estés
