When difficulties are too much to handle or the next level of growth seems just out of reach, you may find yourself living with pain & stress. Some stress in life helps people grow, but chronic stress has a negative effect on your mind, body, emotions & spirit. You may find yourself using old mental, physical & emotional coping tools to survive, yet feel unable to make real change. Your ally in holistic healing, I offer a supportive, warm presence so you can explore what's difficult, hone your strengths, & gain simple yet powerful mind/body tools.
Within a framework of somatic (body-mind) psychotherapy, I offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, EMDR, AF-EMDR, Brainspotting & Havening. Teaching your brain, body and emotions to work together in new ways, I can help you to get free from painful life experiences that keep you stuck in negative patterns.
I work with adults challenged by stress, anxiety, depression, physical pain, and trauma. I support clients healing from the effects of race, class & gender inequities. All are welcome, including LGBTQI clients & poly/open clients.
