Transpersonal Psychotherapy
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper
and deeper
into the world.

ABOUT
Hello and welcome. I am grateful you're here.
As a licensed mental health counselor my experience allows me to understand the ways to work together, with compassion and attentiveness, to help you explore your inner life. I am responsive, flexible, and creative in my approach and use collaboration as the basis of my practice—ensuring a safe environment where we work together to best serve your needs.
Transpersonal mental healthcare means acknowledging the spiritual, cognitive, creative, emotional, and physical selves. When we find practices and paths to align these five realms we come to experience optimal well-being and personal freedom.
I value the power of music, visual art, poetry and movement to reveal and cultivate the strengths and innate potential of each person. I specialize in trauma-sensitive, somatic, transpersonal and expressive arts modalities.I believe wholeheartedly in practicing with deep humility regarding cultural and identity awareness, and I am LGBTQ+ affirming. My preferred pronouns are she/her.
