Welcome to a holistic approach to mental health.

A few words to describe me are empath, healing conduit, transmutator, synthesizer— I have been doing my own personal growth work since I was sixteen years old and have been interested in the human experience and how the world works for as long as I can remember. I am a born contemplative and am gifted at sensing the implicit reality, what is behind the veil. I am very interested in nonordinary states of consciousness and integrating them into daily life. Much of this type of perception isn’t acknowledged by conventional society, and this led me to many years of personal suffering until I found practices to claim my own empowerment. My goal is to share with others what I believe to be the most effective modalities to heal from both big and small traumas. It gives me great meaning to be a part of the growth and development of all things—clients, gardens, animals, kids, and this emerging new world.

I am both a psychotherapist and a bodyworker. My approach is an integration of these two often separate disciplines in order to access more dimensions of one’s experience. I do a fair amount of talk therapy focusing on beliefs and story-telling, but the real potency is when we work with energetic and emotional experiences. This is why we can be in talk therapy for years and although it may feel good and validating, the energetics of trauma are still hanging on in our system. I weave this into talk therapy by being with the felt sense of stored survival stress and emotions in the body. I also provide craniosacral therapy in almost every session to help further regulate and bring all parts of us into more coherence and connection.

I really like working with all types of people and nervous systems. I am especially drawn to help marginalized communities, those struggling with finding their own voice and purpose in the world, and really anyone wanting to integrate overwhelming experiences. This could be from childhood neglect and abuse, sudden shock traumas, psychedic experiences, religious and cult abuse, narcissistic abuse, and many many more. I really like working with people with high sensitivity and chronic pain. Health and healing is a birthright for every person and as long as there is a commitment to the path, I am there with you.
