Overview

If you’ve ever felt like you don’t fit society’s expectations—whether you’re queer, nonmonogamous, kinky, an artist, or just charting your own path—I understand. This is a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment, and explore what it means to live your truth.

Relationship building is important. We will delve into your issues of concern and find the right interventions for you. I take a somatic approach to Internal Family Systems (IFS), Inner child work, and mindfulness to help you achieve your therapy goals. I find it important to dig deep to uncover and heal trauma, and to feel empowered and skillful in your life. I also employ hypnotherapy to help clients find peace, acceptance and healing.

Navigating systems of oppression can feel lonely, isolating, and bring up a lot of anxiety. I'll support your journey finding your true self, and building a life that brings you joy. I am trauma-informed, culturally attuned, and rooted in liberation and anti-oppression.
