About Me
I'm a somatic psychotherapist whose work focuses on healing developmental trauma and complex-PTSD. I work with individual adults and couples of diverse backgrounds and identities such as-but not limited-to LGBTQI+, BIPOC and immigrants, artists, activists, healers, highly sensitive people (HSP) and people who struggle with "eco-grief."
Education & Experience
I hold a Masters in Somatic Psychology ('17) from the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) in San Francisco. I completed my EMDR training through the Institute for Creative Mindfulness. I have trained and consulted with Rachel Walker, LMFT (EMDRIA-approved consultant) and Colleen West, LMFT (EMDRIA-approved consultant) whose work focus on addressing the fragmentation, dissociation and other symptoms associated with complex-PTSD and attachment trauma.
