My Ideal Client

Are you feeling overwhelmed in your role as a parent, or carrying the impact of painful family relationships even as you've built a life outside of the family you grew up with? I work with parents of all genders and infants to build secure bonds, and with adults healing from family abuse, sibling abuse, and domestic violence. Together, we focus on helping you feel safer, more steady, and more connected—to yourself and to others.

My Approach to Helping

I use a body based approach to trauma healing and nervous system regulation. I'm an EMDRIA certified therapist and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. I weave culture rich traditions and modern approaches to trauma together to impact what's meaningful to you. My style is dynamic, collaborative, and validating. I offer a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space grounded in consent and shared safety. Sessions are flexible and offered via telehealth and in person. I welcome first-time therapy clients and those who are tired of talk heavy approaches.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am compassionate, direct, affirming, and always willing to be playful. I bring acknowledgment of the ways systems of oppression impact lived experience and a practice that is grounded in culture-centered, liberation frameworks.
