My counseling approach is thoughtfully designed to weave together the valuable wisdom of various psychological modalities into a simple yet accessible path toward achieving overall well-being. This integrative approach draws from a diverse range of disciplines, which includes health psychology, interpersonal neurobiology, and polyvagal theory, as well as cognitive-behavioral psychology, acceptance and commitment therapy, internal family systems, gestalt therapy, transpersonal therapy, contemplative therapy, depth and Jungian psychology, experiential sessions, dream work, and somatic therapy. Additionally, this approach is profoundly influenced by the principles of mindfulness, a global perspective, and my extensive experience working with a wide array of diverse communities, all of which enrich and inform my practice in meaningful ways.

This process helps individuals understand their fears, insecurities and karma, leading to greater self-acceptance and wholeness.

Discovering Purpose: Participants will explore their sense of purpose, values and meaning in life. Through guided activities and reflective practices, we facilitate a deeper understanding of personal values and goals, empowering individuals to align their lives with their true aspirations.

As a psychotherapist and counselor focused on helping my clients heal and grow, I use mindfulness, holistic practices, and cultural understanding in my work. I recognize that people with marginalized identities face cultural violence and oppression. With an anti-racist and anti-oppression mindset, I create a space for transformation and empowerment.

I believe healing for marginalized individuals means reclaiming their dignity and power, and while privileged individuals need to change harmful behaviors. I see power inequity and systemic oppression as real traumas and provide support for marginalized individuals both personally and collectively as best I can.

I affirm everyone's right to define their sexual, romantic, and gender identities, choose supportive relationships, and explore their needs through consensual and respectful connections. My approach is inclusive of various identities, including those in polyamorous and kink communities, sex workers, and diverse gender identities.

I recognize how my whiteness, cis gender and other privileges shape my views, and I continuously work to unlearn biases. I welcome feedback as a tool for growth and take responsibility for being involved in social justice efforts against white supremacy, sexism, classism, transphobia, homophobia, ableism, ageism, and xenophobia.
