About

Difficult life experiences, whether they happen once or are ongoing, can leave us feeling isolated and disconnected, both from others, and from ourselves. It can be hard to find pleasure in relationships, hobbies, families, or careers, or to even simply just "be" as we are. I view therapy first and foremost as a way to reconnect and be curious about ourselves; to find a place of safety, connectedness, and support from which we can begin to explore who we are, how we came to be, and where we want to go. As sessions progress, I aim to help you find resilience, movement, ease, stillness, or freedom, wherever you may need it. I specialize in working with trauma and other stress disorders (e.g., depression, anxiety), particularly developmental, chronic, or complex, trauma, as well as with those who experience marginalization or oppression. My work is informed by a gentle, resiliency-based model called Somatic Experiencing®, though I utilize many other evidence-based methods.
