My Approach

My intention as your therapist is to support you in coming home to yourself and gaining awareness of/control over your emotions, feelings, and thoughts. I believe, to a nuanced extent, that mental health challenges (ie anxiety, stress, trauma, depression, etc) are due to unresolved & repressed experiences & feelings as well as social & cultural “norms” that don’t align with what our being wants. While feelings & lived experiences are valid, tightly holding on to what no longer serves us weighs heavy on our nervous system. 

That said, I utilize a relational, holistic, mindfulness, and decolonial approach to healing with CBT and somatic techniques sprinkled in between. I support individuals in releasing heavy & unhelpful thought, behavior, and energetic patterns so they can live their version(s) of fulfilling lives. We don’t know how long we have on this planet and with our loved ones; why not make the most of our precious time, energy, and talents?
