I believe that the path to healing and information should be accessible to everyone, regardless of ability or technology. This website has been designed with WCAG 2.1 Level AA guidelines in mind to ensure that my clinical resources and professional background are available to all members of our community.

​WEB ACCESSIBILITY

This website is designed with the intention of being accessible to all individuals, including those with differing abilities.

What is Web Accessibility?

Web accessibility ensures that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the web, providing equal access and opportunity to everyone.

My Comittment

As a practitioner focused on somatic integration and nervous system regulation, I recognize that digital barriers can cause unnecessary stress and exclusion. To support a seamless experience, I have implemented the following features:

  • Clear Navigation: A consistent and intuitive layout designed for ease of use.

  • Readable Text: High-contrast color ratios and scalable font sizes to assist those with visual impairments.

  • Assistive Technology Compatibility: Structured headings and ARIA labels to support screen readers and keyboard-only navigation.

  • Simplified Media: Alt-text for informative images and minimal use of flashing or jarring animations to maintain a "calm" digital container.

Ongoing Improvement

Accessibility is an ongoing process of refinement. I am dedicated to regularly reviewing and updating this site to meet evolving standards and to better serve the diverse needs of my visitors.
