In my private practice, I incorporate my own experience as well as others’ lived experiences to create an anti-oppressive healing space that integrates a holistic, individualized and person-centered mode of treatment. I provide support to clients who experience the impacts of life transitions, trauma events, climate distress, racial oppression, sexism, and injustice due to marginalized identities with the goal of engaging in self discovery, increasing self trust, building meaningful purpose and values, and sparking connection beyond restrictions of our current circumstances. Connecting us closer to ourselves allows for our continued healing and growth in community.
