About Me

I work with folx who are ready to transform the pain of deep-seated childhood, family, or ancestral trauma into authentic confidence and clarity. Those who share the most success in our work together describe me as knowledgeable, curious, attuned, and candid. They want to work with someone who has integrated personal and clinical experience in areas of foster care/adoption, gender-based violence, supremacy culture, or post-traumatic growth. They want to process their pain in a space that can name displacement, poverty, racism, carcerality, and surveillance as distressing. As a non-pathologizing provider, diagnoses will only be used when required and with collaboration. My approach has a lens of neuroscience, humor, liberation and no BS. Being dedicated to your mental wealth means we will incorporate community, strengths, and capacity into your care, so you are more successful when releasing emotional and physical tensions. If you think we could be a good match, send a message and let's taco 'bout it. If we have collaborated in the past, reach out anytime to check availability.
