About

I specialize in the treatment of trauma by way of creative approaches that focus on self discovery and the power of shaping and sharing one’s unique voice. I brings a passion for decolonized thinking and social justice to this work, examining the intersections of identity and systemic challenges that affect our daily lives. I honor my clients’ unique preferences and values to build a therapy that holds your personhood in the highest regard.
I believe in making space for humor and joy even in times of struggle — why would you do the hard work of healing if it’s not enjoyable? I love holistic approaches, using the shared power of mind & body, often teaching trauma-informed breath and movement sequences to make new memories of safety, pleasure, power, and peace in the body.
I promise to share my most energetic, authentic self in offering you unconditional support and affirmation. As we collaborate side by side, I will encourage you to build your safety, discover your power, develop your voice, and welcome new passions, perspectives, and possibilities in creating the life you desire.
