Great to meet you!

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Somatic Yoga Therapist, and Wilderness First Responder. I've been practicing therapy for 20 years and believe in the power of being playful, curious, and compassionate both in life and in therapy. I blend science and spirituality for a well-rounded approach to learning about yourself, increasing your wellness, & healing.

My approach to therapy

As a Somatic Therapist, I understand the importance of re-wiring your nervous system. I offer education and in session somatic tools that you can take with you and make your own. This is your path, so together we co-create the therapy to match your unique needs. You can expect a down-to-earth, compassionate, and skill based approach. My job is to help you re-connect with your own inner wisdom and look inside.

What you can expect from me

My clients walk away with a sense of feeling heard, believed, and connected. This helps heal relational trauma.

They feel more regulated in their own body/nervous system due to the somatic practices. When you are regulated, accessing your wisdom and applying it is much more effective.

My clients have a sense of clarity on what their next step is and how to embody it moving forward.
