My background and training is psychoanalytic psychotherapy, relational psychoanalysis and attachment theory. Most recently I am a certified Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapist (KAP) for individuals and small groups. The integration of deep work and psychedelic medicine offers new paths toward healing. Our compassionate collaboration builds trust and judicious trust in others. My goal is to help you heal from trauma, abuse, persecution and racialized experience. Together we build the pathways of peace, calm, confidence, equanimity, and increased capacity to love yourself and the ones you love.
Depression, anxiety, PTSD and other symptoms are present across psychological conditions. We decipher symptoms of the mind/body/soul in a sympathetic and private atmosphere that promotes your feeling safe and heard. The earned security of knowing yourself as a trusted guide gives you the choice of making changes that lead you to a happier life.
I invite you to reach out to me with questions, concerns, a conversation about what I have to offer you as a KAP therapist in a short term collaborative therapy model. Individuals are welcome. My group work is with True Nature Journeys in Santa Cruz CA, where we offer a group ketamine experience for those who have experience in therapeutic settings.
