Welcome

I’m Tennille. I’m an Occupational Therapist who helps people create more space, freedom, and adaptability in their lives through embodied therapeutic work.

Occupational therapy is a whole-person approach that supports healing and well-being through movement, body awareness, nervous system regulation, and everyday life activities. Rather than focusing on symptoms alone, it recognizes the connection between the body, emotions, senses, thoughts, and daily experiences — and how these all influence the way we move through life, relate to others, and care for ourselves.

Sessions may include conversation, movement exploration, and hands-on therapeutic techniques to support alignment, regulation, sensory integration, and greater ease within the body. Grounded in a collaborative therapeutic relationship, this work is designed to help clients build resilience, increase self-awareness, and participate more fully in the activities and relationships that matter most.

  • Embodiment can help you develop a deeper awareness of your body, emotions, habits, and responses, allowing you to move through life with greater clarity, regulation, and connection. By becoming more attuned to physical sensations, movement patterns, breath, and internal experience, many people begin to recognize stress, tension, overwhelm, or disconnection earlier and respond with greater intention and self-understanding.

  • Embodied practices may support:

    • nervous system regulation and stress reduction

    • improved body awareness and movement efficiency

    • emotional processing and resilience

    • recovery from injury, burnout, or chronic tension

    • increased presence, confidence, and adaptability

    • deeper connection to self, relationships, and meaningful activities

  • In an embodied OT approach, the goal is not just symptom reduction, but creating space for movement in the body, ease in the mind, and a greater sense of presence, capability, and connection in how you move through your everyday life.

  • Embodied therapeutic work integrates physical, emotional, cognitive, and sensory experiences within the therapeutic process. This approach acknowledges that stress, pain, trauma, habits, and emotional experiences are often reflected within the body and nervous system.

    Through movement-based interventions, mindfulness, breathwork, touch-based modalities, and therapeutic reflection, clients are supported in improving regulation, function, self-awareness, mobility, and participation in meaningful daily activities.

  • Rossiter stretching is a movement-based bodywork technique designed to help release tension and restriction within the connective tissue system (fascia) through a combination of targeted pressure and active stretching. Distinctive to the Rossiter approach is its “foot-on” technique, in which the practitioner uses their feet to apply broad, controlled pressure while the client actively participates in guided movement and stretching patterns.

    Unlike passive massage, Rossiter work is interactive and movement-oriented, helping to lengthen tissue, improve mobility, decrease discomfort, and restore more efficient movement patterns. The approach is often used to address chronic tension, postural strain, stress-related holding patterns, movement limitations, and discomfort associated with repetitive use or injury. It may also support nervous system regulation by helping the body shift out of patterns of guarding and compression, creating greater ease, alignment, and body awareness
