Welcome! I'm so glad you've found your way here!
I'm a somatic psychotherapist offering virtual sessions in California and both in-person and virtual sessions in Oregon. My work centers on helping clients deepen their connection to themselves through present-moment awareness and embodied experience.
In our sessions, you'll have the opportunity to explore not only through conversation, but also through experiential practices that support insight, integration, and healing. My hope is that each time we meet, you feel supported, grounded, and genuinely accompanied on your journey.
I draw from a range of approaches to support each client’s unique healing process, including Somatic Experiencing, polyvagal-informed practices, expressive arts, Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). My work is rooted in a social justice orientation.
I believe the body holds profound wisdom—physically, emotionally, spiritually, and across generations. In our work together, we’ll attune to the language of your body to access insights that may have been held beneath the surface, stored in muscular tension, pain, or patterns outside of conscious awareness. Looking forward to hearing from you!
