I see clients who are dealing with trauma, although it's not always obvious that past experiences are running the show. Many of my clients struggle with perfectionism, addiction, shame, boundaries, people-pleasing, self-worth, and feeling stuck. I am open and affirming of all identities and bodies, often working with communities I align with, such as queer, poly, ethical non-monogamy (ENM), and kink. I use a collaborative approach with lots of humor and raging against the machine (shame).
I consider how your life experience has shaped you uniquely. I want to help you understand yourself with care. I specialize in healing through neuroscience, parts work, ACT, mindfulness, and self-compassion. I use a nervous system-based approach that bridges science and evidence-based practices with your body and mind's natural wisdom for healing.
I recognize that a great deal of suffering is influenced by the body and mind's response to maddening systemic, ecological, and cultural influences. You aren't crazy. Life is hard, our world is hard. Sometimes we adapt to it in unhelpful and enduring ways. I want to help you adapt in new ways that support your overall wellness.
