Have you ever wondered why certain life patterns have been so hard to turn around? Perhaps you struggle with money problems, feel hopeless, suffer from weight problems, or addictions you can't seem to beat. Psychological and physical ailments such as these, as well as self-doubts, often originate from past events of which you may be unaware. They don't have to remain a mystery-or have power over you anymore! Real lasting change comes not only from an understanding of those events, but from creating corrective emotional experiences that allow you to release those old, unproductive patterns.

I integrate therapeutic styles depending on the best fit for client and situation.

Accepting clients. To survive in a traumatized, ego-centric culture filled with counterfeit images, we pay a steep price - trauma & pain in our disconnected bodies, loneliness & broken-heartedness in our relationships, an unmet longing for passionate, meaningful engagement with the world. Crisis, illness, pain, suffering & despair become the catalyst for change, awakening our yearning for a more courageous, authentic, embodied life. Speaking to us through symptoms, grief, images, longings, dreams- the soul calls- beckoning us into the unknown, asking us to surrender what no longer serves us. I help people navigate this wilderness.

I am most skilled at working through trauma and helping clients understand why they have the issues they do. I can help you identify the real source of your issues, so you can begin to transform your life. I also do a lot of work around gender exploration.

You have worlds to explore within yourself, so much strength to uncover, feelings to connect with, and pain to heal.

My aim is always for you to feel safe, seen, and heard. In a world that seems to constantly pull your energy outward in a way that doesn't serve you, I want to provide you with a space where you can turn inward, with intention and compassion.

Do you want to live your life as who you truly are rather than who you think you ‘should’ be? Overcome the thoughts that tell you you're not enough, aren’t deserving or that there’s something wrong with you. Release old patterns that take you to the same places, relationships and feelings over and over again. Heal your past, relieve anxiety and fear and feel happier, more peaceful and powerful, more confident and inspired. Feel more deeply connected, - body, mind and spirit. Fulfill your passions, your divine purpose and live the life you are truly meant to live. The power to bring these changes into your life is within you
