I often work with clients of all ages who desire to determine how to FEEL better through other options, such as using their breath during a breathwork session or utilizing the Safe and Sound Protocol. Both modalities support clients with anxiousness, depression and post traumatic stress disorder, to name a few. The modalities offered start with the feelings first through breath and music, then we discover the why afterwards. Often, you will not need to speak too much, but rather simply trust your body and what it wants to express, release and be recognized, while I guide your through the recognition process in a safe space.

Not a single one of our lives has escaped pain, hurt, rejection, loss, or other traumatic events. It’s a part of the world we live in; a part we cannot evade. Each generation, the trauma becomes more complex, as it builds on the previous generation’s unresolved trauma. It presents itself as depression, anxiety, fatigue, sleeplessness, trouble concentrating, self-destructive behaviors (including addiction), physical illness, overwhelming guilt or shame, and the inability to form healthy relationships. But it doesn’t have to continue. You can loosen the hold that it has on your life. You can end the cycle of generational trauma.

Hello, some of my strengths include identifying and cultivating strengths in others, giving language to complex feelings, detangling complex issues and finding paths to wholeness.

As a therapist, I work from a relational model that considers both individual and systematic aspects of life to create a better understanding of what is brought into session. In collaboration, I'm a firm believer in showing up authentically as a queer/neurodiverse therapist and welcome clients to do the same as we work together. Therapy is work, but it's not something you have to do alone.
