If you’re feeling like something is missing and finding it difficult these days to feel grounded in yourself, I want to help you figure out what’s getting in the way so you can feel like your true self again. Unresolved grief, trauma, feelings of abandonment, shame, and anger can hide in the unconscious mind and keep us stuck in toxic patterns that ruin relationships, sex and our sense of self. Anxiety, fear, and unmanaged stress can wreak havoc on our ability to hold on to a sense of hope. For BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ individuals, fear of violence and oppression adds more stress to the weight of these hardships.
I use an integrative and holistic style of therapy that sources from psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and yoga and mindfulness. I hold certificates in sex therapy, gender and sexuality, trauma-informed clinical care, as well as multiple certifications in yoga and meditation. My relational approach is culturally sensitive, open, positive and affirming.
You’ve taken the first step in listening to the core part of you telling you that it’s time for change. I want to help you translate that inner voice into meaningful insight and action. Together, we’ll work to deepen self awareness, explore what's hiding in your unconscious, and begin to heal the untouched pain and wounds in your mental and emotional body.
