I work with adults and individuals using a trauma-informed, feminist, intersectional, culturally sensitive, and anti-oppressive framework. I believe that experiences with early caregivers, the nuances of family systems, and the unique interactions with culture, society and institutions over a lifetime combined create ways of being in the world.

I draw from a variety of techniques, including Narrative Therapy, Solutions-Focused Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Trauma Processing. My areas of focus include:

Relationships
Life Transitions
Developmental Trauma
Grief and Loss
Depression
Anxiety
Cultural Identity
Creative Process
