For me, “psychotherapy has to do with…people playing together.” My therapeutic approach is grounded in practicality, metaphor, and contradiction. Whether you want to examine your relationship to archetypes and epic tales, investigate the mundane and extraordinary beauty in "doing the dishes," or delve into your style of relating to another being: bring all of it - it is welcome and deserving of our attention.
Using a direct, relational, person-centric approach, I pull from a variety of trauma-informed modalities. These include a psychoanalytic and psychodynamic Depth oriented approach, Buddhist psychotherapy, existential and somatic theory, and a deep alignment with principles of eco-psychology and wilderness therapy.
My role is to co-create a therapeutic container of vital interactions that supports your goals. I’m here to accompany your journey in the unknown while supporting your process with the sacred and the profane.
