My Ideal Client

Are you struggling to have the relationship experience you used to have? Have you and your partner found yourself at a standstill arguing frequently, or perhaps things just don't feel as alive and vital between you anymore? I would love to help you. I specialize in working with relationships, supporting people to find themselves and each other so that you can experience the closeness, safety, and trust that you deserve to have in your important relationships.

My Background and Approach

My approach is client-centered, trauma-informed, and relational. I work with you to establish a sense of safety so that you can explore your edges and grow into the parts of yourself that you are ready to embody. We will help cultivate the wisest parts of yourself, uncovering a foundation that will support you in your daily life and work outside of our sessions. We will work towards body-centered sessions, allowing the non-verbal awareness of your body to guide your growth and integration. All of my work is rooted in an awareness of systemic oppression. I recognize that many of our struggles and coping mechanisms are healthy adaptations to an unjust world. I believe that our individual healing is a part of the work of our collective liberation. While we work together with a focus on your well-being, we support the whole community's well-being, in turn. I work with relationships and families of all structures.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

  • Emotionally Focused External link

    Emotionally Focused therapy, or EFT, is a therapeutic approach that aims to support folks in having the relationships that they want to have. Within this approach I support you and your loved one(s) to identify what is getting in the way of the relationship experience that you want to be having, and help you to find your way towards more trust, closeness, intimacy, and joy together.

  • Hakomi External link

    The somatic & mindful approach to integration practiced in Hakomi is a resource that I bring to each of my sessions. I trained at the Hakomi M.E.T.A. Institute of Portland.
