My philosophy of care is grounded in the notion that every person has a gift within themselves. People do not need to be fixed; they need support to return to their core self. I am here to support you whether you are going through a transition, or dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges. Please consider reaching out if you want to make meaning of your life, use difficulty as an opportunity to grow, and/or if you are deeply committed to improving society. I am here to develop your trust and to tap into a shared awareness where you can process, find balance, and evolve.
I have a passion for helping you understand your natural rhythm. Together we can prepare a personalized map of resources to help you regulate and maximize your nervous system. I have an interest in the intersection of spiritual wisdom traditions, neuroscience, and quantum physics and incorporating nature into my therapy.
In the natural flow of life, feelings of burnout, hopelessness and helplessness are normal. What may seem like obstacles can serve as portals for healing and transformation. My intention is to create a courageous, non-judgmental space for you to explore your core values and use them as a foundation to create a meaningful life for yourself and your community.

I aim to collaborate with you to create a space where you feel safe and secure to be your authentic self. As life ebbs and flows, it is natural for us to feel burnt out, hopeless, and helpless. Whether you are going through a major life transition, an ongoing mental health issue or emerging crisis, or supporting others who are, my goal is to be present for you.
