If I were a tattoo artist, you could come into my shop and flip through my portfolio to check out my style. I'd be a new-school mash-up artist, but one who also likes fine-line portraiture. Big custom work often has themes around memorials and body horror (because I do work with grief, trauma, and sexuality). I am not a tattoo artist, but maybe this metaphor gives you an idea of who I am and how I work. The work we do together is customized and I work well with people who want a collaborative process. Sometimes "the work" is painful, but it's beautiful in the end, and it is yours to carry with you.

You’re driven, capable, and used to figuring things out. But lately, even your usual strategies aren’t cutting it. You’re feeling stuck in patterns—overthinking, overworking, overgiving—and despite your accomplishments, something still feels off. Maybe your relationships feel unbalanced, or you’re tired of holding everything together without space to actually feel your feelings. Therapy isn’t about weakness—it’s about strength. It takes courage to pause, reflect, and intentionally shift long-standing patterns. It’s not just about coping—it’s about evolving.

She is trained in psychedelic integration therapy, and a certified psychedelic assisted therapist (PAT), Certified Jungian Life Coach and Shamanic Practitioner.
Identifying your limited beliefs and unconscious motivations, you gain self-awareness, thus allowing you to navigate your life with more intention and greater understanding. In my practice, I guide you by offering shadow work, dream analysis, and working with archetypes to access the hidden self. With the integration of conscious and unconscious facets of self, you become, as Carl Jung would say, Individualized. Through the process of self-realization you can harness the true power of your soul's journey in co-creation with the universe. I invite you to dream into reality, the greatest version of yourself!

My practice is a safe place for ALL women and their personal belief systems. I'm here to help women who are struggling with life's inevitable ups and downs. Are you navigating modern motherhood, and work-life "balance" (is there EVER really complete balance)? Does making friends feel like a chore? Maybe it's ADHD, anxiety, or postpartum mood disorder? Is perimenopause knocking at the door? Let's figure it out together. I am kind, but direct in my approach. Please understand that I no longer conduct phone consultations. I believe that the best way to truly decide if we are a good fit working together, is to meet and go from there.

I know that growth and change aren’t always easy, and I’m so glad you’ve taken this first step by reaching out for support. I believe therapy is most effective when it’s built on a genuine, compassionate relationship, and I love working with individuals who are ready to take an active role in their healing journey. Even if you’re struggling to recognize your worth right now or feel uncertain about your purpose, I believe every person has the capacity for healing, growth, and meaningful change.

Do you ever feel like you are moving through life without a sense of direction? Days fill quickly, decisions stack up, and it becomes harder to tell whether your energy is being spent on what matters. Over time, we can stay in motion while drifting further from what matters most to us. Therapy offers a place to recalibrate so your next steps are guided by intention and connection with your deeper values.

If you have trauma and experience PTSD symptoms such as hypervigilance, feelings of emptiness, hopelessness and/or abandonment, nightmares, flashbacks, dissociation and ongoing anxiety, fear and depression, please reach out to me. I specialize exclusively in trauma therapies (such as EMDR and Brainspotting) that reset the fight-or-flight response in the brain and reduce symptoms.

I am a pre-licensed professional counselor specializing in trauma. Whether your experiences stem from childhood wounds, relationship trauma, loss, or events that were simply too overwhelming to process, you don't have to keep carrying them alone. Trauma keeps the nervous system locked in survival mode and traps you in a cycle of fear, shame, and anxiety. These responses aren't signs of weakness. They're the mind and body doing exactly what they were designed to do in the face of overwhelming experience. And with the right support, they can change.

What does it mean to persist, let alone lead, when the world is on fire? How can you live your dreams when everything is heavy? I see you. You've already survived so much, and you're exhausted. Whether you're queer, neurodivergent, non-monogamous, highly sensitive, or simply someone who's been told you're "too much," you know the masks you wear to survive are now suffocating you. The people-pleasing, perfectionism, and shrinking once kept you safe, but now you're burned out and disconnected from a life that feels like yours. You're trying to make the world a better place, but that has to mean for you, too. I want to help.

I help clients to overcome issues such as anxiety, relationship difficulties, depression, trauma, and self-esteem issues by working with them to develop the tools that will lead them to health, happiness, and wellbeing. Sometimes the only way to overcome what we are going through is to face our life with honesty, and through this process, awaken our inner guidance system for healing. The obstacle to this, is that we often cannot do so without first telling our story. I offer a safe space for you to tell your story, and can help you on your journey to self-discovery, healing, and reaching your full potential.

My specialty is blending Jungian and psychodynamic approaches with practical tools, so our work is reflective yet grounded.
My ideal client is someone who feels a pull to understand themselves more deeply. They may come in with surface-level struggles such as stress, relationship challenges, career uncertainty, or a sense of being stuck. At the same time, they’re curious about the deeper patterns that shape these struggles-recurring themes, limiting beliefs, or unresolved experiences that continue to influence their lives.

You've found yourself here because you're not feeling your best and know something has to change. Maybe you’re confused by emotions that come out of nowhere. You feel stuck in survival mode and everything in life feels urgent, all the time. You’re just going through the motions of life and not sure how to break free. Many of the people I've worked with have felt they had to ignore their own needs, stay constantly on alert, or out-do themselves for others. You may be left wondering, "Is this just who I am as a person, or is there more to life than getting everything done?" This is the little spark that’s gotten you here. Welcome!

We all have anxieties. We have defenses against hurt that we build up over time, that become solidified into unproductive patterns of behavior and prevent us from living our best lives. We all, from time to time, lose connection with ourselves and those around us, as we try and do the million things that daily life demands of us. It’s okay. You’re not alone.

You don’t have to carry everything alone. I help high-achieving persons, leaders and survivors who are tired of being strong for everyone else — yet are ready to finally be supported themselves. My work centers on navigating trauma, identity, relationships, life transitions, and the emotional weight of being “the one who holds it all together.” I served across continents, legal systems, and diverse communities, developing real-world solutions for people who have survived complex experiences and environments. I understand systems and I understand the real human beings who move through them every day.

Jungian Therapists
How does Jungian therapy work?
Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, focuses on a patient’s inner experiences and unconscious mind. Exploring a person’s unconscious mind can be achieved through several means, including the analysis of memories and dreams, and through physical exercises, such as art, dance, and word association.

How long does Jungian therapy last?
Jungian therapy is an intensive treatment type. Because its goal is to understand a person as a whole, including the unconscious aspects of them, treatment can range from months to years. Since patients learn the theory behind Jungian therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have completed.

Is Jungian therapy effective?
According to studies, many patients find success with Jungian therapy, and the century-old treatment has a devoted following. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Improvements in problem areas seem to continue even after the end of Jungian therapy, as people are able to continue working on themselves using the tools they’ve learned during the treatment.

Is Jungian therapy evidence-based?
Jungian therapy is theory-based, derived from the theories of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist often called one of the fathers of psychology, along with Sigmund Freud. Jung developed his theories from observing the problems of patients, and developed many theories of how the mind works. Subsequent psychological research has determined that Jungian therapy can lead to significant improvement in most patients.
