What is Metta?

“Metta” is a Pali word that translates to “loving-kindness” or “universal love.” Rooted in Buddhist tradition, it embodies compassion, empathy, and goodwill toward oneself and others. At Metta Healing Arts, this principle forms the foundation of everything we do, creating a safe, nurturing space for healing and growth.

Why I chose the name Metta Healing Arts

The name “Metta Healing Arts” reflects the heart of my work: healing trauma with compassion, presence, and care. True healing goes beyond techniques or modalities—it requires a deep understanding of each person’s unique journey and a supportive relationship built on trust and empathy.

My Approach

At Metta Healing Arts, healing is holistic and deeply personalized. I draw from a range of modalities—including somatic experiencing, yoga, breathwork, and creative expression—to create an integrated path to recovery. Every tool is thoughtfully applied, honoring your experiences, needs, and readiness. The goal is not just to recover but to reconnect—with your body, voice, and authentic self.

The Client-Therapist Relationship

The relationship we build together is at the heart of your healing process. I approach each session with kindness, compassion, and an open heart, fostering a space where you feel seen, heard, and valued. This safe, trusting connection becomes the container for exploring emotions, releasing trauma, and reclaiming your power and voice.

Metta in Practice

At Metta Healing Arts, healing means embracing all parts of yourself—the messy, the tender, the powerful. Guided by the principles of loving-kindness, our work together will be a journey of healing, growth, and transformation. You’ll find a space where you are supported not only to heal but to rise rooted in your truth.
