“Ashanti is a wonderful mentor. She has been instrumental in my growth and learning as a dance movement therapist in training. She always gives me helpful feedback and constructive criticism that challenges me to improve my skills and knowledge. She supports my goals and aspirations and encourages me to explore my creativity and expression. She is patient with me when I make mistakes or struggle with something, and she never makes me feel judged or inadequate. She keeps it real with me and tells me the truth, even if it is hard to hear sometimes. She is very knowledgeable about her field, and she shares her insights and experiences with me generously. I admire her passion and dedication for the field of dance movement therapy. Ashanti is not only a great supervisor but also a great role model.”

“This has been my first experience with bodily/somatic therapy and I’ve enjoyed it a lot. Traditional therapy never quite resonated with me, so I am grateful to have experienced your methods of connecting to my emotions through movement, music, and other forms of creative expression. I’ve learned that feelings don’t just live in the mind. As someone who overthinks and over rationalizes constantly, you have taught me to notice how my emotions show up in other parts of my body and meet them there to work through it. I also often turn to the grounding and emotional regulation techniques you have taught me to recenter myself. I’ve told many of my friends about my experience working with you. 10/10 would recommend! ”
