There is a way through this. We will find it together. I believe in the power of authentic expression and deep relationships. I incorporate contemplative, somatic, and social justice approaches in my counseling. I work with adults and couples focusing on identity, gender, and relationships. I provide a collaborative approach utilizing mind-body and present moment awareness to support you in connecting with your intrinsic health and inherent wisdom. As meditator, dancer, gardener, and herbalist I value time to reflect, slow down, be with nature, and developing our capacity to move from the heart with courage and gentleness.
As a queer and non-binary person myself (pronouns: they/them/their), I have special interest in LGBTQIAP populations. Heterosexual, gay, lesbian, queer, bisexual, transgender, monogamous, non-monogamous, and polyamorous individuals and partners can benefit from relationship support, emotional literacy, healing trauma, and exploring gender in their lives.
I have experience working in reproductive healthcare and with sexual assault survivors. I utilize training in Buddhist psychology, mindfulness, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), DBT, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy when working with anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, chronic illness, identity development, and interpersonal relationship challenges.
