2S-LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, and spiritually affirming. Has past therapy felt surface level or disconnected? Many of my clients have spent years in therapy, personal growth, or spiritual practice. They understand their struggles intellectually, yet still find themselves stuck in the same emotional, relational, or nervous system patterns. I specialize in helping people heal complex trauma, religious trauma, ADHD, grief, and relationship challenges by moving beyond insight and creating meaningful and lasting change. I often work with therapists, healers, yoga teachers, and helping professionals who are ready to go deeper.
Many of my clients come to me after years of therapy, self-development, or spiritual practice. My approach integrates psychotherapy, nervous system regulation, somatic work, mindfulness, and spirituality to help uncover what is keeping you stuck and create meaningful, lasting change.
Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, especially if previous therapy experiences left you feeling misunderstood or disappointed. You don't have to figure it out alone. If you're looking for a thoughtful, holistic approach that honors your mind, body, and spirit, I'd be honored to connect.

I help people heal from complex trauma, religious trauma, relationship challenges, ADHD, and identity-related stress. Treatment often includes exploring the patterns, beliefs, emotions, and nervous system responses that may be keeping you stuck. Drawing from psychotherapy, somatic approaches, mindfulness, attachment work, and spirituality, our goal is greater self-understanding/ emotional freedom.
