Great to meet you!

I believe that we are holistic, interdependent, relational beings, more than the sum of our parts with deep complexity. I value the here and now and I am deeply committed to helping folks be fully alive in their bodies, relationships, and work. It is an honor to witness clients uncovering their own truth and live it. I incorporate the deeper aspects of clients’ history, personality, aspirations and context to assist unlocking their potential for living a fully expressed life. The body and nervous system, along with the mind, are used to facilitate healing and growth which is not always available in traditional talk therapy.

I specialize in working with attachment, parenting, the perinatal journey, intimate partnerships, life transitions, separation + divorce, trauma and identity. I find tremendous value supporting folks in connecting with a sense of purpose and meaning, connecting to their true identity. Our therapeutic work together aims to increase awareness and acceptance.

Increasing access and awareness with equity and social justice is something that is of great importance to me, both personally and professionally. I am passionate about calling out the injustices that exist in our society and being a part of a cultural shift that values empathy, diversity, and interdependence.

My approach to therapy

It is an honor to witness clients uncovering their own truth and live it. I incorporate the deeper aspects of clients’ history, personality, aspirations and context to assist unlocking their potential for living a fully expressed life. The body and nervous system, along with the mind, are used to facilitate healing and growth which is not always available in traditional talk therapy.

What you can expect from me

The first session will look a little different than other sessions as we go over intake paperwork. We will discuss treatment goals and begin to build rapport.
