Following your initial consultation with Alicen, she can provide recommendations and more detail as to specific needs, services and timing.

Alicen integrates a deep mindfulness approach, informed by eastern philosophy, meditation practice, yoga, dance/creative arts therapy, family life with her husband and two children, and a belief that healing trauma can give us direct access to spiritual expansion.

She draws on the SE, DARe & PACT Models in her practice to address the neurological/physiological underpinnings of pre-verbal and/or sub-psychological attachment trauma. This understanding is instrumental in treating adults, advocating for children and helping care providers and educators understand how to attend in a way that brings about nervous system re-regulation.
