If you've hit a wall in achieving change, you might have come to the right place. I use a combination of somatic & top-down approaches to support the healing process I see teens & adults, and specialize in serving BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, autistic, and ADHDer communities. Over the last 10 years, I have developed targeted skills to support people with complex trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, & burnout. While venting can be incredibly helpful, I hope to provide support beyond that. I use DBT to help you learn tangible coping skills to get through escalated emotions or dissociation in the present.
I combine DBT with the somatic approaches of Brainspotting & IFS (parts work), which can help your nervous system engage in deeper healing so that past pain is less visceral, and long-term healing feels possible. This can help you break out of cycles of emotional overwhelm, disconnection, self criticism, low self esteem, or reduced task performance.
I see mental health work as a liberatory practice to decolonize healing and deconstruct systems of power. I utilize a neurodivergent affirming framework to understand and work with the different ways our brains and nervous systems are wired. I will create a tailored approach that is specific to you, and help you work towards healing and change.

Phase 1 focuses on getting to baseline by building coping strategies, expanding support systems & understanding what's happening. Phase 2 focuses on healing your nervous system. During this stage, you may logically understand something, but need to change your emotional & behavioral responses to activating events. Phase 3 will prioritize integration & expanding a self-determined life.
