I was drawn to this work to provide others with the resources I lacked, from psychoeducation to liberation within oppressive systems. As a therapist, I value helping clients reconnect with their highest selves and/or their higher powers while navigating the complexities of identity, relationships, and mental health.
I specialize in supporting individuals with anxiety disorders, including GAD, OCD, and panic attacks, as well as complex PTSD and the impacts of developmental and intergenerational trauma. By exploring the unconscious beliefs, values, and messages that shape personality and relational dynamics, I guide clients toward self-awareness, self-compassion, and transformative healing.
As a parent, I am passionate about relational dynamics, working with individuals, parent-child/family, couples, and group systems in both traditional and non-traditional framings. I create a culturally attuned and emotionally focused space where clients feel safe to explore their inner landscapes and embark on a collaborative journey of self-exploration and healing.
My approach integrates modalities such as transpersonal and depth psychology, experiential therapy, acceptance commitment therapy, narrative therapy, and play therapy. Grounded in an attachment-based and energy-centered framework, my work is informed by social justice, trauma-informed care, harm reduction, and humanistic principles.
I am honored to work with queer, neurodivergent, kinky, ENM, and BIPOC individuals. It is the complexity and intersectionality of identity that fuels my passion for this work. For those ready to embrace shadow work, delve into life’s challenges/transitions, and explore the full spectrum of human experience, I offer a welcoming and transformative space. Misfits welcome—I look forward to exploring the depths with you.
