My approach

It can be difficult to navigate the darkness alone, and I fiercely believe that as humans, we're destined for transformation, healing, and wholeness-- but we’re not meant to do it alone. I am committed to maintaining a safe space for all humans and am a disability, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ ally.​

​

I specialize in the following:

​​​

• neurodivergence

• complex trauma

• spiritual exploration

• quests of self-discovery

• depression

• big emotions/mood regulation

• anxiety

• chronic illness

• ancestral trauma

• relational wounds

• interpersonal difficulties

• systemic oppression

• dreams/nightmares

• grief/loss

• life transitions

• existential questions and existential dread​

​

​

My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, culturally-sensitive and person-centered, meaning that therapy with me is relationship-oriented and personalized to support each individuals’ culture, history, and therapeutic goals. While each therapy session is created to suit an individuals’ unique needs, I draw heavily from the following:

 

• depth psychology including shadow work, dream work, and active imagination

• spirituality

• somatic psychotherapy

• polyvagal theory

• attachment theory

• dialectical behavioral therapy

• internal family systems

• existential and experiential psychotherapies

  • including (and depending on the individual’s interests/orientation towards life) gleaning meaning and insight through writing and art, movement, writing, role-play, mindfulness, and connection with nature.

 

 

I am fiercely passionate about collective and class consciousness, social and environmental justice, and collective healing-- and that sometimes the most tenuous of situations can create space for futures better than we can currently imagine. I value making therapy a safe (and sometimes fun!) sanctuary for self-exploration for all of my clients.
