Before I became a therapist, I assumed therapy was all talk. After all, it's mostly how we see it depicted in media-how we hear it suggested to someone who's in crisis or stuck in a pattern: 'Maybe you should talk to someone?' Don't get me wrong, talk is important-it builds connection and reminds us of the transformative power of active listening and living our questions. But what about our troubles that live below language? The parts of us that are perhaps oldest and closest. Deeply felt, yet hard to articulate. Experiences like complex trauma, attachment wounds, religious trauma, and grief and loss may need more than talk to heal.

I believe that centering the body in the therapeutic process is essential for healing. This will be unique to your particular nervous system, but I trust that inside of you is a wisdom who knows what you need to heal. Therapy is a collaborative work in which we cultivate your relationship to this wisdom.

I come to the therapeutic relationship humbly rooted in a somatic orientation, primarily through sensorimotor psychotherapy. I also weave in brainspotting, parts work, mindfulness, and spirituality. Additionally, I offer psychedelic-assisted therapy through ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP).
