If you're facing a challenging situation, struggling with painful memories of the past, or want to cultivate a deeper sense of meaning and purpose, contact me to see how I can support you. I’m a Certified EMDR therapist who integrates Somatic Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT, CBT) to create a secure space for you to explore your strengths while addressing the issues that may be interfering with your vision of a satisfying life.
I’m immersed in Bay Area subcultures that value creativity and inclusiveness. I’ve spent many years as a therapist and consultant for programs that support diverse identities and experiences. I operate from a culturally conscious framework so you can bring yourself fully into an affirming space of self-discovery.
Contact me for a 15 minute consultation to see how I can support your path of wellness and self-discovery.
