Ketamine-Asissted, EMDR, Psychedelic-Support, Experiential / Gestalt backed by somatics and Parts Work / IFS. My practice is founded in a transpersonal, mind-body-spirit philosophy of healing and I believe all these components as well as your connections with others, your environment, self, and your Divine are all inextricable linked – all components must be considered and approached with love and grace. I am trauma-competent and also use mindfulness, CBT / DBT, movement, and music to help you find a container of healing that works for you. I specialize in deep dive reprocessing.
My universal objective is to guide you in unlocking your own inner healer to help you navigate obstacles in the way of nurturing yourself and strengthen the relationship of love and beauty that is in you. Ideally you have coping skills and life stability already so that we can dive efficiently into the shadow realm to enable lasting psychological healing.
Life is messy and I believe it takes meaningful relationships to make sense of this mess and to accept it. I strive to stay in communion with my Source as we meet to reflect its sacred light onto you - so that you can see how human, special, and valid you are in your own identities, challenges, & celebrations. <3 Queer, <3 Neurodivergence , <3 Spirituality
