About

As we embark on this journey together, I aspire to provide you with my full attention and engagement, allowing you to experience the benefits of gentle, generous focus. With nearly a decade of experience working with non-ordinary states of consciousness (e.g. psychotic, manic, dissociative, ecstatic, etc.), I'm confident that I can help you manage most anything you're experiencing. You will find our time together has depth due to my background in Jungian theory; yet the somatic (embodied) and trauma-informed approach underlying everything we focus your curious attention on will remain rooted in your felt-sense of the present moment.

If you've at times felt judged or belittled, you may have started hiding away parts of yourself, fearing other's opinions. Sadly, the echos of this hurt can be heard for years as shame, saying,"It's not safe to be vulnerable."The antidote for this is compassion.
