I work collaboratively and compassionately, using approaches rooted in somatic principles, mindfulness, and Internal Family Systems, which tap into these natural abilities, regulate the nervous system, and treat trauma and accumulated life stress.
Do you notice yourself getting stuck in the same old patterns? Are feelings of shame and guilt constantly overtaking your mind and body, leaving you with the painful belief that you aren't good or deserving enough? Have you found yourself desperately trying to take control of your life through management strategies that used to serve you well enough, but now only seem to make things worse? If any of these questions resonate with you, know there is hope and a way through into a life of compassion, confidence, and peace.

I take a nonjudgmental trauma-informed approach, recognizing the somatic components of mental health. I am especially interested in working with neurodiverse adults and teens. I believe that a mental health diagnosis isn’t something you need to be afraid of, rather it can be a key to discovering your superpowers and what you really want out of your life. I also travel nationwide to cofacilitate and provide spaceholding for somatic and spiritual retreats.

I specialize in overcoming trauma, and I utilize mind body practices including EMDR Therapy, Heart Centered Hypnotherapy, Image Transformation Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Ego State Therapy, Mindfulness activities.
Safety has been elusive in your life and trust is something that is a figment of the imagination. You're seeking "normal" and are not sure what "normal" actually is. Living in survival mode has become your way of life. Walking into my office or meeting via telelhealth your safety, emotional, mental, physical, is my first priority. We can't heal if we don't first feel a sense of safety. You want to be able to walk around in this world without fear, without being in fight, flight, freeze, feint, or fawn mode. You want healthy relationships and to thrive.

I typically incorporate expressive arts-based techniques, somatic work, mindfulness and IFS concepts into my sessions to encourage insight and healing on a core level.
Welcome! I'm so glad you landed on my page. I am a strengths-based, client-centered, expressive arts therapist who sees teens and adults working through anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief/loss, relationship issues, identity questions, & trauma. The first thing I'll do when we meet is listen. I want to hear your story, in the way that you tell it. Together, we'll explore the parts of your story that are working for you, and the parts you want to shift; the parts of your story that are in your control, and those that are not. I will act as guide and witness to the work you do to move towards the life you want and deserve.

I am trained in and use evidence-based treatment modalities such as EMDR, somatic experiencing, yoga, and mindfulness-based trauma informed CBT to shift and modify cognitions, physiological reactions, emotions, and help clients get "unstuck.
Inevitably, we all encounter periods in our lives in which what we've learned to that point isn't sufficient for the challenges we now face. I believe therapy can be a safe, supportive environment in which to better understand ourselves and the world and to revisit what we want in life and how to get there. Whether you are dealing with significant anxiety or depression, or simply need a new environment to learn your way through new challenges with a helping eye and ear, I bring a humorous, creative, curious and open-minded approach to helping you progress through life's challenges.

I am trained in techniques such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and somatic work to help process trauma, reduce worry, stress, anxiety, and depression, increasing your capacity to live more present in your everyday life.
It takes immense courage to seek counseling when you find yourself struggling. Life's more challenging experiences often leave us struggling with hurt, doubt, or feelings of being overwhelmed. For many, this can be daunting and the idea of talking about our struggles with a stranger may sound uncomfortable and even scary. My focus is to provide a safe space by listening with compassion and curiosity and without judgement. Together we can discover your journey to a fulfilling life defined by you.

If you have trauma, then I am able to collaborate with you in completing Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) as ART is a somatic therapy that utilizes eye movements to reprocess your trauma.
Instead of selling you why one should see me, I will tell you how I may be able to help and then you are able to decide if I may be a good fit.

I specialize in trauma/anxiety using a somatic EMDR and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy approach.
It's hard to find a therapist that's the "right fit". When it's not the right fit, it can become a discouraging experience. I've been there myself. My hope is that you will be brave and try again until you find a therapist that you resonate with. My services are meant to be integrative, kind and compassionate, while offering you cutting-edge therapies. I often provide strategies based on neuroscience that you can take home with you. We can also just hold sacred space together if you need authentic witnessing to your story. I've been in the field for 40 years, so I have a lot of tools in the box to offer you.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
