Tried talk therapy before and looking for a new approach? Learn how to befriend your body, including your mind, using somatic and expressive arts therapies. These embodied methods work on a deep, often nonverbal, level to help you re-pattern responses to stress and heal from trauma that may be unconscious or unspeakable. We'll explore your personal neurobiology with curiosity and compassion and work together to support the real you— a whole person worthy of love, joy, and liberation.
I specialize in individual and group counseling with dancers, artists, and queer/trans teens (age 14+) and adults on anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, dissociation, body image, trauma recovery, relationships, & belongingness. Let's weave music, art, humor and movement into exploration of the big questions about life, the universe, and everything.
I’m intensely curious about the stories we tell ourselves and each other. You are the author of your story, but all tales need an audience. I am genuinely excited to meet you, wherever you're at in your journey, and serve the exploration of your story to live more skillfully.
