Welcome all! What a wild journey it is to encounter all aspects of yourself, including what your emotions are communicating to you subtly or absolutely clonking you over the head with! You’ll find I approach the healing process by centering what love and truth is asking of us at all times. If you’re here, it means there are parts of you ready to expand your consciousness and take ownership of yourself and your own best guide.
My interest in the unconscious has drawn me to weave together many therapeutic approaches - psychoanalytic, somatic, hypnotherapy, light language, and bio-field therapy with the aim of integrating all facets of the self. I take a warm, culturally informed, integrative, whole-body body approach, and enjoy working with adults interested in developing an honest relationship with themselves as powerful creators, and a therapeutic relationship that can facilitate emotionally transformative experiences.
My curiosity about the mind /body/ spirit connection continues to fuel ongoing education focused on processing unconscious emotion on all levels, and on tapping into one’s innate ability for healing. I am a certified Neuro-Emotional Technique (NET) practitioner, have completed in-depth clinical hypnosis trainings through the Society for Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis (SCEH), studied an abundance of clinically validated breathwork and meditation practices, and obtained my certificate in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy from the Wright Institute Los Angeles.
I’m consistently resourced by the profound healing animal relationships can provide, and before discovering bio field work, enjoyed a decade of fostering and guiding rehabilitation for cats and dogs. These relationships created a deep reverence for the living ecosytems we all inhabit, as animals and all facets of nature are compassionate, keenly attuned witnesses in the healing process. I am a member of the American Psychological Association Human Animal-Interaction: Research and Practice Division, as the APA honors these connections as some of the first forms of safe, secure attachment.
