About us.
Everything you need to heal already exists within you. I’m simply a guide on your journey through the landscape of your life. There is much to discover there, lets walk the forest together.
Approach
I provide holistic trauma therapy that involves somatic, body-oriented approaches. Sessions with me often involve an infusion of the following:
Internal Family Systems therapy
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) therapy
Somatic/body-oriented approaches
Mindfulness
Breathwork
Shamanic journeying/drumming
Work with spirit guides and ancestors
Working with legacy and/or cultural burdens
Reiki
Ceremonial cacao
Internal Family Systems
IFS therapy is a powerful approach to healing that involves meeting all the different parts of you, or aspects of your personality. Some parts may have adopted maladaptive, but somewhat effective, approaches to managing your symptoms or protecting you from pain. Some parts may carry the pain of past trauma or neglect. We meet these parts with compassion and love, listen to their experiences, and help them release their burdens. In so doing, you will experience a greater sense of your true nature and freedom from the pain of your past.
EMDR
EMDR therapy is an approach that allows us to identify and treat the root causes of current symptoms (low self worth, anxiety, depression, substance use, PTSD), leading to deep, lasting healing. It utilizes bilateral stimulation (eye movements) to allow the brain to reprocess trauma that has been held in your body since its origin. EMDR isn’t just effective in treating trauma, it can have powerful effects on helping you release past emotional wounding and struggles with relationships.

I teach and guide others through what I’ve learned on my own healing journey. I am familiar with the powerful impact complex and ancestral trauma can have on our relationships with ourselves, others, and the natural world, limiting our ability to live wholesome and fulfilling lives. My journey through self discovery has been at times difficult and scary, but great wisdom has been found through transversing it.
I believe in helping others build their own internal strength and resiliency, bringing healing to past trauma while also strengthening your sense of Self so that you can weather the storms of life as they arise in the future.
I have a passion for helping people reconnect to themselves through bringing awareness to the body, mind, and soul. I believe true healing comes from the integration of our whole selves. Internal Family Systems therapy has become one of the most effective approaches for me in this regard, and it is at the center of my work with clients. I also integrate somatic and spiritual practices in sessions with clients when it is called for to deepen your connection with yourself, others, the natural world, and your guides and ancestors.
