About My Clients

I work with people that are struggling with painful experiences from their past and want to heal trauma. My clients often identify as women, trans or non-binary, bi-cultural or BIPOC. Many are intellectuals, activists, creatives and the like—some for whom traditional talk therapy has not been successful. I will work collaboratively with you to understand your instincts and process unresolved stuff in you nervous system so you can feel satisfied in your life.

My Background and Approach

My style is honest, transparent and supportive. I am educated in child development and consciousness studies and certified in Psychedelic Assisted Therapy and Integration, Brainspotting, SandPlay therapy and Perinatal Mental Health. Clients of mine have said I am warm and non-judgmental. I am passionate about individual and collective healing leading to social, economic & ecological justice. I love working at the junction of the spiritual, the somatic, intuition and imagination. I also love working with dreams, creativity and other altered states of consciousness.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I identify as a mother, and my pronouns are she/they/we. I am a gardener and land steward, a partner and a kitchen witch. I am passionate about learning, regenerative agriculture & traditional cultural practices, scavenging, handwork and ritual. I practice humility and just pleasure. I was a victim of sexual abuse, and found healing through psychotherapy, psychedelics, dreams, somatic experiencing, the earth, herbs and spiritual practice and community.
