I have experience working with addiction, depression, self sabotage, disordered eating, identity questions, trauma, sexuality, codependency, and self esteem.
Perhaps you have felt you do not fit in somehow in your family, your community, or the larger world. Perhaps you have been navigating multiple cultural identities inside. Perhaps you have felt like your spirit is tender and the struggles of your life are too much to bare. Perhaps you have felt that other people have figured it out and you have been comparing your insides to other people's outsides. And you have felt alone, maybe scared, and confused. And now you want someone to help you be with it all. Now you want a compassionate heart and a steady presence to navigate these emotional terrains.

I support highly sensitive people and LGBTQIA+ folks with childhood trauma who feel chronically numb, anxious, or “too much”- often appearing high-functioning while feeling like they’re drowning inside. You might be struggling with hypervigilance, people pleasing, attachment insecurity or numbness.
My somatic approach moves you beyond understanding into embodied change, helping you regulate your nervous system, shift old patterns, and create more ease, connection, freedom and authenticity in your life. I believe true change comes from the body, as how safe your nervous system feels shapes your thoughts, emotions, and patterns.

Hello and welcome! I love working with clients who want to understand themselves as fully as is possible. My clients tend to come to therapy for a specific reason, but often stay to explore and discover more broadly, seeing the treatment process as a tool of growth and expansion. I work well with clients of all genders, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds, and I see the therapy relationship as a sacred container for meaningful personal healing and evolution. I find that most clients are seeking a combination of practical help and deep insight, and I really enjoy moving with flexibility and spontaneity between these goals.

I provide sex-positive therapy to individuals, relationships, and adult families. Most of my clients have non-mainstream sexual, gender, and/or relationship identities. Many identify as non-monogamous, are considering opening or creatively designing their relationship(s); I help them to create agreements, move through jealousy, heal from infidelities, build trust, and improve communication with partners and metamours. I work with queer, transgender, and nonbinary clients just beginning to question and explore their identities, and those who have been out for years and need therapy from a clinician familiar with queer issues.

My practice serves adults navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, ADHD, substance use, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Many clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, disconnected from themselves, or struggling with stress, grief, recovery, or patterns rooted in past experiences. I provide a warm, collaborative, nonjudgmental space where clients can gain insight, build coping skills, heal from difficult experiences, and develop healthier relationships with themselves and others. My goal is to help clients create lasting change and live with balance, confidence, resilience, connection, and purpose.

The clients I work with often seek to address the root of their challenges, rather than quiet the symptoms. Through somatic and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy I support clients in getting to that root, and building a firm foundation for wellbeing. If you are coming to therapy as a romantic relationship, marriage, friendship, or family I will support you in paying attention to the nonverbal behaviors that may be contributing to painful dynamics of disconnection. I will also invite you to take practices you find helpful from our sessions into your daily life.

Hi, my name is Chris, and I’m a somatic psychotherapist with a background in performing arts and movement. Sessions with me focus on both the story of what’s happened, as well as on what’s happening in the present moment. I bring warmth, playfulness and a healthy dose of humor, while still focusing on safety and gently challenging you where appropriate.

We all have the innate tendency to heal in the presence of a skillful and trusted other. Emotional pain can be intense and overwhelming. At times, it can feel like our relationships are filled with little else. We might try to push it aside or distract ourselves only to find it still there, just as frightening. But there are paths through the hurt to feeling well and connected.

Through therapy, we can author and re-author life stories and personal mythologies in order to bring self-supporting realities into existence. I work collaboratively with clients, cultivating existing strengths and internal resources in order to foster relationships and life experiences that contribute to clients' recovery and wellbeing. When invited, and with respect, I’m honored to explore what makes clients who they are, and to support who they want to become.

I have a background in CBT and trauma-informed care.
