Turning Nervous System Chaos Into Hand-Inked Clarity

Somatic Illustrator | Therapeutic Art Coach | Founder of Neural Mapping™

Trauma survivors carry tangled neural paths that keep them stuck in dysregulated stress responses. I translate those complexities into hand-inked Neural Maps™—intricate visual records that bring clarity to your nervous system and guide you toward regulated calm.

My work is a bridge between clinical regulation and fine art. Each piece is created specifically for your nervous system’s needs, using pen, ink, and intentional color to re-map the overgrown paths trauma has left behind.

The Art of the Mental Forest

Think of your nervous system as a vast forest. Trauma and chronic stress create tangled, overgrown paths that make it difficult to find your way. Through the patient protocol of Neural Mapping™, I use hand-inked linework to re-map these paths.

As a university-trained fine artist and therapeutic art coach, I don’t just create images: I create Somatic Relics—records of resilience designed to help you navigate your inner landscape with clarity and compassion.

Outside of commissions, I also create intentional linework pieces—meditative studies in pattern, flow, and repetition available for collectors.

How We Work Together

I offer three ways to bring Neural Mapping™ into your healing practice:

I work exclusively through intake forms (no phone calls) to protect both your energy and mine. Commissions are limited and open seasonally.

While the work is deeply technical, my inspiration is often found in the quiet moments with my companions—Bailey the Great Pyrenees, Prince the grey Persian, and Myrtle the red-eared slider. Whether you’re here to collect a Somatic Relic or begin a custom commission, you’re invited to join me in this practice of creative courage.
