I bring warmth, genuine care, and integrity to create a non-judgmental container for clients to explore their challenges, uncertainties, and uplift their strengths. My approach is collaborative, client-centered, and relational, and I trust in the here-and-now as being a powerful indicator of what needs our attention and care. As a licensed professional counselor candidate (LPCC), and somatic psychotherapist, my intention is to support clients in exploring, accessing, and developing a relationship with their body in which one can trust their innate bodily wisdom as valuable and healing.

My work draws from my personal journey of shifting from low self-esteem into self-compassion, moving through codependency and distrust in self and life, getting to know my feelings of anxiety and depression, understanding why I was spiritually bypassing, and finding home within myself- that I was enough. By no means does this indicate that my journey is over or that I have it all “figured out".” What I do know is that life is challenging and walking along side others who can hold us through uncertainty, pain, and triumphant moments of growth, can serve our capacity for healing.

I have experience in the healing arts as a practitioner and facilitator as a Breathwork Journey guide, yoga instructor, firewalking facilitator, and retreat leader which has informed my truth; that transformation happens on a body-level, and psychotherapy supports that integration. I am committed to social justice by acknowledging differences, considering impact, and advocating for clients’ best interests within a systems perspective.

My therapeutic approach is integrative, including a variety of somatic practices, parts work, inner child work, attachment theory, nervous system regulation, and mindfulness. I have a Master’s of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling: Somatic Psychotherapy, from Naropa University. I was a Clinical Intern at Naropa Community Counseling Center during 2021-2022. I have training in the Somatic-Centric Sex Therapy Model and couples counseling with Melissa Walker, and Level 1 training of Motivational Interviewing with Avani Dilger and the Human Services Network.
