>Now accepting new clients!< You matter. And simply because you exist, you belong. This can be difficult to believe though if you have felt marginalized due to your neurodiversity, sexuality, or gender. I’m interested in exploring the marginalization you feel and helping you to find a sense of belonging in the world and in yourself. I want you to feel seen, heard, and understood. We might explore creatively through dreams, meditation, archetypes, enneagram type, or through somatic awareness.
My approach to helping is gentle, relational, and client centered. I believe you are already whole. It’s my honor to be an active listener, thoughtful questioner and to encourage you and hold awareness of your process. Having a non-judgmental and caring witness alongside you can be a powerful tool in developing a sense of self acceptance.
I believe that our bodies, minds, emotions, and dreams all have wisdom. Let's explore your innate intelligence together. Please email me to schedule a free 20-30 minute phone consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.

My counseling practice is rooted in Process Work. Process Work is an alternative therapeutic paradigm that doesn't use the DSM or diagnose. Process Work combines Jungian and depth psychology, Taoist theory and somatic processing.
