Highland Park, CA 90042
I offer support for life transitions, artists, people of color, grief and loss, using Buddhist Psychology and trauma sensitive approaches.
Accepting New Clients. As an integrative and holistic therapist, I invite shadow aspects of the individual and collective as tools for growth. I believe genuine healing comes from mindfulness awareness (being present to the experience of living), honoring emotions, cultural awareness, and curiosity. Relational approaches are at the foundation of my work, along with depth psychology (exploring how the unconscious shapes our thoughts and actions). When serviceable to explore, art and somatic based practices may be used, as these approaches can be a rich source of integration for artists and those in the healing profession.

Feeling like you’re tied up in knots? You might need to go beyond talk therapy to find freedom. In a world that often tells us who to be, it can be tempting to mold ourselves into who we think we should be rather than embracing who we truly are. The relentless self doubts- that we are not good enough, that we are too much, or that we don’t matter at all- can make us feel trapped, creating a barrier between our true selves and the life we want to live. By focusing on the connection between the mind and body, I offer a integrative path to unraveling stuckness, mending old wounds and restoring your sense of aliveness and wellbeing.

Welcome, time traveler. Does anxiety throw you into the future (and it is never a future you actually want)? Do you find yourself catastrophizing, mentally preparing for atrocities that are not likely to occur? Do shame and guilt, pull you back in time with old negative beliefs that weren’t yours to begin with? Do hyper vigilant parts of you, show up as flashbacks, nightmares or dissociation? Do these too keep you in the past? Kurt Vonnegut’s famous science fiction novel, “Slaughter House-five,” describes a soldier in the war zone becoming “unstuck in time.” This is what trauma feels like for many people, HSPs and non HSPs alike.

Our frustrations with life and emotional pain are often rooted in unexpressed parts of ourselves of which we are largely unaware. Challenges or life transitions (expected or unexpected may create disruption in your life as well as awakening awareness of problematic patterns and pain from the past. You may feel stuck in patterns of bad relationships, loss of identity, or lacking meaning in life, even when you know you want to break free. You may be defined by your job or family role, but what else are you? What joy or meaning is missing in your life from not knowing all that you really are?

Most people need help at various times in their lives navigating difficult experiences. My approach is collaborative, action-oriented and positive with individuals and couples. When relevant, I incorporate somatic (body) approaches, including EMDR and Brainspotting modalities to working with anxiety, phobias, trauma and other issues. My practice also includes the option of "walking and talking" outdoors. I am influenced by IFS / IFIO (parts work), self-compassion, feminist, and polyvagal approaches. I help clients connect more deeply with the past and address barriers to well-being in the present.

Wilderness therapy embraces a relational and transpersonal approach to healing and recovery. Relying on the inherent interconnectedness of all living things, interest within this evidenced-based discipline has generated a variety of modalities for serving individuals who seek to uncover a deeper understanding of their own "wild" and genuine spirit. I have found my own personal healing to be intimately connected to spending time in nature, and it is here that I believe that we can all begin to rediscover our intrinsic humanity and let go of those things that distract us from our higher selves.
