About

The human experience is rich, messy and complex. With the right support, you can navigate periods of change, transitions, shakiness, and uncertainty with less fear and more confidence. You can learn to use your body, senses, impulses, and awareness as invaluable tools to inform your experience. As a somatically oriented, Buddhist psychology-based therapist, my hope is to provide a dynamic and supportive context so that your innate wisdom, clarity, and self-compassion can emerge and blossom. I strongly believe in the healing power of humor, both in and out of the therapy room. You have more potential for freedom than you think!

As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), I have years of training to help folx heal and integrate the effects of trauma (CPTSD and/or acute). For couples, I am trained in PACT therapy which is an experiential modality that supports improved communication, regulation skills, and increases understanding and compassion for oneself and their partner(s).

I welcome and celebrate your innate health. I honor the complexity of your identities, lived experiences, and challenges embedded in the larger social/political context. I am currently accepting clients on a waitlist basis- please reach out and I will send a form to fill out. I look forward to meeting you!
