Being human is hard. We grow up often not taught how to feel, or be in healthy relationship with self and others. The isolation and loneliness make it even harder to process life's hardships. In turn, we develop ways of coping with stress and uncertainty, that become painful and limiting over time. Psychotherapy can be a space to unlearn these ways that are harming you, including systemic ones, dive deep into yourself, to meet all the parts of you, heal past traumas, personal, cultural and intergenerational.
The process will help you make life choices that align with your values, so you can live a more meaningful and joyful life. I support you in finding your own inner healer, offering deep care and listening, always with a trauma lens. I work primarily with the intelligence of your body, your unconscious, and with the assistance of Ketamine therapy if needed.
Together, we will explore and integrate your different identities. Choosing a therapist can be a difficult process. Often it is best to schedule an initial session to get a feel for how I work and if it feels like a good fit. I work with clients of all cultural backgrounds and identities, especially with BIPOC, immigrants and LGBTQ clients.
