Is simply talking not helping you to heal in the ways you know are possible? Do you know what actions will help you, but find that the emotions and body refuse to follow? Are you looking for deep healing that acknowledges the complexity of external factors, yet allows you to go deep into your body, your consciousness, and creativity to access the healing within you? If these words resonate with you, I'd love to explore with you. I use many unconventional tools that we can fit to match your intentions, alongside talk therapy.
I expressly accept most insurance because of my desire to offer quality therapy not typically covered.
My focus is to help and support folx who have experienced trauma (cultural, identity, developmental, single incident) with modalities that support safety and empowerment. I practice IFS, Somatic Experiencing, Safe & Sound Protocol, and Hypnosis (parts and regression) in ways that affirm your unique identities/cultural contexts.
