Honestly exploring the role of White privilege in our lives is a critical part of healing.

My role is to reflect your innate worthiness.

Our sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions (SOGIE) are integral parts of how we know ourselves and relate to one another. In my practice, I embody a loving acceptance for who you are . Together, we may explore how the gender binary system, transphobia and homophobia have inflicted harm. We may also draw upon your inner wisdom to move towards healing from these wounds.

Your gender identity or expression and/or sexuality may not be what you’re focusing on right now in therapy. Or you may want to explore a new awareness you have about your sexuality and/or gender identity or expression with someone you trust. TOGETHER, WE CAN WORK TOWARDS: *Acknowledging your losses *Caring for your brokenheartedness *Tending to anger *Processing internalized shame *Finding belonging *Cultivating “enoughness”

My role is to reflect your innate worthiness. Together we may take a curious stance towards "esteem" and find new ways to define what it means to you. You may decide to slow down, to become increasingly aware of the sensations related to when you feel most "esteemed." I can be a supportive guide to tapping in to your unique esteemed Self.

Honestly exploring the role of White privilege in our lives is a critical part of healing. For all of us with this experience, it is a life-long practice. In my work and my personal life, I prioritize acknowledgement of racial oppression and privilege as well as openness and awareness of how racism interrelates with all personal/familial/systemic positions within society.

I was introduced to Nonviolent Communication (NVC) about 17 years ago and have been drawing upon the practice ever since. NVC is a way of viewing one's self, one another and the world. At the center of NVC is empathy--truly listening with an open heart to ourselves and to those we want to connect with. I am inspired by NVC's stance that humans share common needs. In my work, I listen for those needs; to be understood, to have choice, or be considered to name a few.

For me, interconnectedness is key. I understand our inner and outer landscapes to be complex. Holistic therapy is about centering wholeness. It is considering a wider view of our experiences and challenging separateness.

For me, interconnectedness is key. I understand our inner and outer landscapes to be complex. Holistic therapy is about centering wholeness. It is about considering a wider view of our experiences and challenging ideas of separateness, often reflected in imaginary boundaries between mind, body and spirit. In my approach to therapy, I attune my holistic attention to you with honesty, consideration and compassion.

Somatic psychotherapy begins with the premise that our bodies are always communicating. In a society telling us to "be logical" and "use our heads," our senses are dulled by demanding a mind-body split. In my somatic approach, I invite you to gently ease back in to connection with your embodied self. By drawing upon what gives you energy and joy, I support you in bringing your awareness to your felt senses. With curiosity, we invite sensation and inner perception to guide your healing.

I help people work with their feelings of anxiety, worry and dread by getting compassionately curious about them. I guide you in listening to your emotions, to how they show up in your body and to being present with what they are telling you. Together, we will work towards: *Meeting your emotions with compassion *Understanding your unmet needs *Unraveling perfectionism *Expanding your Emotional Competence *Developing somatic resources *Practicing Radical Acceptance

With our heartstrings tugged, awareness of what we need fades into the background. In a world where care work is made both invisible and actively devalued, I believe it’s a transformational commitment to consider yourself in your care. TOGETHER, WE CAN WORK TOWARDS: *Creating rejuvenating practices *Tapping into your interests & passions *Embracing your authentic Self *Learning the signs of burnout and vicarious trauma Setting boundaries that meet your needs Getting courageously Self-ce

IFS composts much of what we've been told about who we are and what we know about healing. IFS insists that your inner world is complex; that there is literally an internal family system within you. You have parts who want to protect you from harm and parts who have been harmed who they intensely protect. You also have a Self, an energy of calm interconnectedness.
