When working with individuals, my hope is to bring more joy, peace, and trust into your life and relationships. As a clinician, I am here to support you through the entire gamut of your human experience - both the light and dark. I bring my natural gentleness, warmth, and humor to sessions.

I help my clients shine a light onto unknown parts. I offer education and vocabulary to help you make sense of your experience, empowering you to understand your inner world. When we have experienced difficult childhoods, relationships, and trauma, our internal experience can seem mysterious, confusing, out of control, or even frightening. We can react impulsively in relationships, and later feel ashamed. Over time, chronic stress and mistrust impacts our nervous system. It can lead to hyper-vigilance ( “fight or flight”), people pleasing (“fawn”), and exhaustion (“freeze”). When unmanaged for too long, it can lead to physical health issues. I offer education and tools to regulate your nervous system as a crucial first step. When we are calm and regulated, we can see things more clearly, set boundaries without fear, live in our bodies comfortably, and figure out who we really are beyond our trauma.

Individual therapy will support you to establish a healthier connection to yourself, your loved ones, your body, and the present moment. I often employ the use of metaphor, guided visualizations, “parts work,” and somatic interventions to help you understand your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations.

Clinically, I incorporate psychodynamic, relational, somatic, and transpersonal orientations, as well as parts work and psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. To me, this blend of orientations encourages holistic wellness across all systems.
