Do you ever feel a wall between yourself and the world? Do you long to feel connected to yourself and others? What we feel and/or have lived through can disconnect us from each other and the world around us. I offer a trauma-informed, creative, and personalized approach to work with you as you explore how to reconnect to your innate ability to thrive. We can find a sense of ease through creative exploration into how the body and mind carry our past experiences, values, and internalized narratives. I work best with older teens and adults, existentialists, artists, and bookworms.
My approach examines the meaning making we do throughout our lives and empowers the person to be active in this process. I view the experience of being a person as holistic, focusing on the embodied connections between the self, others, and the world we inhabit.
My work as a therapist is to walk alongside you as we unwind oppressive expectations, systems, and internal patterns. My hope is to co-create a space with you where you can cultivate a life that feels aligned with who you are at your core. My clinical practice is influenced by my love of storytelling, symbolism, music, comedy, and folklore.
