My intention is to create a nurturing relationship that supports your learning and growth. I believe the quality of the therapeutic relationship is the most important element of a helpful counseling experience. Together, we will explore your challenges with compassion and curiosity and discover your strengths and other resources that can help you move towards meaningful change. If you’re interested in working with me, please leave a message with your insurance and best times/days.
I focus on adults experiencing: Trauma/PTSD, life transitions; mood disorders; relationship difficulties; and challenges with body and self-image. I welcome individuals with diverse racial, cultural, class and gender identities. Psychedelic prep/harm reduction and post-trip integration offered. No referrals offered to guides or retreats.
I work creatively with clients to design a healing process that works. I encourage clients to reflect honestly, noting what's more and less helpful. My style is active, down-to-earth, and intuitive. I integrate a variety of theoretical frameworks, tailoring the process to your needs.
