I specialize in helping high-achieving, highly sensitive individuals navigate quarter and mid-life transitions, anxiety, identity development, relationship challenges, career change, and burnout. Modern life often demands that we sever our connection to our true selves, our intuition, and the natural world. I help you bridge that gap. Anxiety, worry, and somatic illness are often the psyche’s way of signaling a disconnection from our core. When we follow these symptoms with curiosity rather than shame, we quiet the noise of intrusive thoughts and move toward a way of living informed by deep self-love and self-trust.
My work is rooted in the intersection of psyche, society, and nature. I don't just look at symptoms; I look at the soul of the struggle and the environments and systems surrounding it. Drawing from depth psychology, dreamwork, somatic therapy, and ecopsychology, we explore the archetypal patterns and somatic signals that guide your path.
I am a mother, traveler, and PNW native whose life has been shaped by 20 years of navigating corporate environments and deep personal transitions. I understand the unique exhaustion and groundlessness that come with identity shifts. By blending Jungian and humanistic values with real-world experience, I help you reclaim your authentic and creative nature.
