I help people regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to purpose, and live from center through talk, breath, and presence. I draw on a wide range of training, lived experience, and clinical tools. In addition to standard psychotherapy methods like CBT, I integrate mindfulness, breathwork, body-based and somatic approaches, parts work (e.g., Internal Family Systems), Gestalt-informed therapy (e.g., Hakomi), Emotionally Focused Therapy, and couples work.
My approach bridges Western psychology with insights from Eastern mysticism and spiritual traditions. I also bring experience with shamanic practices and plant medicine work. While I don’t facilitate psychedelic journeys in my practice, I offer integration therapy for those exploring these powerful modalities.
I'm especially passionate about working with people in recovery from addiction, supporting couples through conflict or sexual challenges, and helping families reconnect to each other. If any of this speaks to you, I’d be honored to connect for an initial consultation.
