How I work

Therapy with me is rooted in the here-and-now experience and aimed at expanding awareness and choice. It is trauma-informed and client-centered. I draw heavily from humanistic, Gestalt, somatic, decolonizing, and depth-oriented traditions. If you are interested, I also hold space for dreams, imagery, and transpersonal explorations.

DETAILS

My style is warm and direct. I aim to help you expand your awareness and sense of the choices available to you. I will accompany you in your darkest moments and celebrate your accomplishments. I will support and challenge you. I will help you discover the wisdom you already have within.

I believe that emotion requires expression. We all have different emotional metabolic systems, and life tends to go haywire when we are backed up. Part of the work of therapy is moving this process along. In doing so, we clarify how things really are before aligning purpose with action.

Through our work together, I hope to see you suffer less, increase your capacity to engage in relationships and community, and deepen into your realest self.
