I am a caring and empathetic person who has a heart for helping people. As a therapist I seek to work collaboratively with clients in establishing treatment goals. My hope is that clients will learn new and healthier ways of living and gain a greater ability to treat both themselves and others with compassion. It takes courage to step into the therapy room, so I work to provide a disarming and open space for clients to share. My curiosity guides me as I get to know people for who they are and I enjoy helping clients learn to think, feel, and act in new, productive ways to become the people they want to be.

My hope is that our work together can reignite those things that bring you the most joy and life. Often this process involves working through the impact of loss, pain, or trauma in a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship. I work extensively with artists, musicians, womxn and queer folx, and much of my experience centers around religious trauma and spiritual wounding. My work is informed by feminist/queer theory, and humanistic and existential perspectives of psychotherapy. I often incorporate the use of mindfulness techniques and I am trained in numerous evidence-based clinical treatments including IFS, AEDP, ACT, and EMDR.

Being a human is hard, and sometimes overwhelmingly hard. Things going on within, around, or to us can challenge how we experience and engage with life and ourselves. Sometimes we need helping in sorting out our thoughts, feelings, and actions in order to find a way to live both comfortably and authentically. Sometimes we need help finding new perspectives and understandings of ourselves, others, or the world. Sometimes we are comfortable within ourselves, but are facing difficulty in interacting with others and need assistance in uncovering friction points. No matter what it is, you’re welcome to explore it with me.

Life is a mix of celebrations and challenges, often leaving us feeling weighed down by emotions we’re unsure how to process. Therapy doesn’t have to be a scary process—it’s an opportunity to be heard, understood, and supported.

Welcome, I’m so glad you are considering reaching out for support. These are hard times, and learning to befriend, rather than avoid or deny, the vulnerability and complexity of being human is a revolutionary act. Effectively meeting this moment requires skillful and consistent access to our inner knowing and resilience. That’s where I come in: I help change-makers, cycle-breakers and creatives navigate the lingering imprints of trauma, both personal and cultural, on their relationships and sense of self so that you can move beyond the trance of unworthiness and welcome more of who you are with compassion and curiosity.

Life can take turns that present difficult challenges. We experience those challenges in a number of different ways: difficulties adjusting to new circumstances, confusion in deciding on a career path, struggles in relationships, or coping with loss. Often we feel anxious, depressed, confused, or overwhelmed and need help dealing with feelings and problems that seem beyond our control. Help may come from friends, family members, or significant others, but in some cases help is needed from a trained professional. Therapy is a process that can help people identify more effective strategies both to cope with difficult situations and to achieve their goals.

It takes incredible courage to begin exploring the parts of yourself you’ve had to push away or keep hidden. My goal is to empower you.

I especially enjoy supporting individuals in exploring their relationship with substance use with curiosity and a mindful approach. Together, we focus on self-empowerment while gently exploring the connection between your mind and body. I utilize EMDR, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and ACT.

Our collective struggle is that we have inherited a world of imbalance and as such, imbalance lives within each of us. It is my belief that healing is done in community, and that true change can only occur in the space between individuals. Together, we will work to find equilibrium and healing amongst the madness. It is my goal to help clients develop and hone the best version of themselves according to their own vision. Through the integration of movement and the expressive arts, I seek to assist clients in rewriting their narratives in a way that embodies dignity and strength.

I work with individuals who are making sense of things that happened to them. Maybe you recently experienced a mental health episode, like mania, that knocked you off your feet or you have been experiencing challenges, like panic attacks, for quite some time.

I am here to help you reconnect with your mind and body, so you can return to living a fulfilling and authentic life.

There are times when life is painful and seemingly without answers, yet what seems most broken in us can be a channel for growth, even a source of strength we never knew was possible. My own healing through therapy and mindfulness meditation inspired the pursuit of an MA in Integral Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, the first program in the world to blend Eastern philosophical and spiritual traditions with Western schools of psychology. Today, I feel honored to support others on their journey toward healing.
