On the path of finding your unique place in the world, you have experiences with a weighted quality to them. You may find yourself standing at thresholds between outgrown and not-yet-known phases of life. Big emotions or big changes may be illuminating the patterns that no longer serve you. You experience a subtle but persistent longing that says "there is something more for me." You sense that something is starting to shift, and that change is scary. If these things ring true, you are likely receiving an invitation to slow down, get your footing, and see what may be stirring beneath the surface.
I specialize in working alongside clients experiencing manifestations of trauma, grief, and life transitions—the kinds of challenges that orient us to the depth of our human experience. My approach is holistic and experiential, and I am passionate about supporting others in exploring the emotional, somatic, and spiritual/soulful dimensions of healing.
This kind of work nurtures your capacity to weave yourself into greater relationship with your Self, others, and the wild world around you. If you are curious, reflective, and open to experimenting with new things both during and between sessions, we may be a good fit. When you need support on your journey, I welcome you to reach out for a free consultation.

I have training in EMDR, Psychodrama, and Experiential Therapy. EMDR can help facilitate deep transformation of past traumas. Psychodrama invites you to step into the narrative of your life and express what has been left unexpressed. Experiential therapy supports the thinking mind in taking a rest while your emotional and somatic experiences come through.
