Thank you for your visit. I am not currently accepting new clients. It's a tough time, politically, financially, and emotionally. I am glad you came looking for help. Welcome. I tend to work with clients who use insurance and address long-standing patterns, wounds, and trauma. I alternate between conscious work/talk therapy and depth work/subconscious transformation. Frequently used techniques include: EMDR, Lifespan Integration, ISP Somatics, IFS informed, Feminist/Anti-Oppression, Narrative/Story Telling, Play/expressive, CBT/DBT, Career, Movement, and Mindful Self-Compassion.

I offer support for work stress/bullying, racial identity/mixed/first-gen issues, trauma, neglect, anxiety/depression, and parenting challenges. I address political/world feelings of doom/helplessness, climate anxiety, generational trauma, and loneliness. I often work with activists, unionists, and those in 'caring/healing' fields- teachers, nurses, etc.

My goal is to help folks fall in love with themselves. To trust, be sweet to, and to hold oneself accountable with compassion instead of shame. I believe in liberation and hope. It brings me alive to help folks get free from internal & external bondage. I worked in the labor movement for 15 years before becoming a therapist. This informs my approach.

I am in network with multiple insurance companies. I use billers, who interact with clients about billing. I accept private pay and offer superbills. I try to avoid billing tasks and questions when possible. I prefer to focus exclusively on our therapeutic work and coregulation.
