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.
