Her keynote, The Mirror Work of Healing, invites clinicians into a brave space of reflection and renewal — exploring nervous system fluency, identity integrity, and the often-unspoken tensions of the work. Attendees will leave grounded, affirmed, and reconnected to the purpose behind their practice.
