About My Clients

Are the self-critical voices running the show? Doubting yourself and your instincts? Shaming yourself for not having it all figured out by now? Do your feelings of connectedness and satisfaction feel fleeting? These are just some of the common experiences we humans can have when it comes to finding our flow in relationship to ourselves, others, and the world around us. Together, we can find more ease in your struggle, more compassion for the process, and empowered action.

My Background and Approach

I’m a Bay Area native, recovering perfectionist, and the youngest in my family. I'm partnered and enjoy adventuring and down time with my family and loved ones in my free time. Clients and loved ones describe me as fiercely passionate and heart-centered, observant and wise, and committed to seeing from all angles. Equal parts softness and intensity. I have a master’s degree from the California Institute of Integral Studies in Somatic Psychotherapy. I’ve worked with youth, underserved families, young adults, and adults in outpatient clinical settings. A 15-year vet in the health and wellness field, I bring an integration to psychotherapy with movement and healing arts. My approach is holistic and experiential, warm and collaborative, direct and gentle, combining talk therapy with somatic practices in mindfulness around breath, movement, touch, and embodied experience. My goal is to meet my clients where they are, with an open heart, curiosity, and a sense of humility and humor.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I identify as a white, able-bodied, cisgender woman. I strive to remain aware of my privilege and power, while acknowledging I will always have blocks in my ability to see from the vantage point of someone who doesn’t look like me. I engage in personal and professional process work around whiteness and seek consultation around themes of oppression and how they impact the therapeutic relationship. I welcome diversity into my practice.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
