Are you a therapist, helper, or healer who needs to receive a little (or a lot) of your own medicine? We all deserve to feel rooted and connected. We all deserve to feel empowered and authentic. You deserve to thrive! I see myself as a shamanic fairy godmother: we'll get you to your happily ever after, but the journey will be an adventure. Therapy is an invitation to transform ourselves, our relationships, and our lives. Through conversation, genuine compassion, humor, and intuition, I offer clients safety to create subtle and powerful changes.
My therapy-dogs-in-training often join our telehealth sessions, bringing peace, love, and fur. Whether you're healing past hurts, seeking clarity, or exploring new possibilities, I’m honored to walk with you. I trust the mind-heart-body connection and can offer mindful, somatic, and Brainspotting approaches on your journey.
I'm a solo mom (of two), now in a blended family (of 8 humans!). I love yoga, journaling, nature, travel, and a great cup of coffee. I struggle to keep my plants alive, but I'm working on being a better plantwitch every day. Books and shiny rocks are friends. And I can't wait to meet you and help you wildly love yourself better and love your life more!
