Hello! I am a depth-oriented, holistic, and somatic trauma therapist who integrates various approaches while grounded in social justice.

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in scotts valley, CA

About My Clients

I work with adults who feel called to engage in meaningful and transformative work. My practice welcomes those recovering from trauma, anxiety, women who have experienced narcissistic abuse and systemic oppression, LGBTQ+ individuals, immigrants, and those navigating multicultural identities. I also provide a neuro-affirming space for those whose ‘unique systems’ have been marginalized. If you've experienced invalidation and rejection because of who you are, I`d like you know: you belong here.

My Background and Approach

I imagine the therapy space as a welcoming cove—a place where we can explore what's calling for healing as it emerges on the shores of your consciousness. My approach is holistic, integrating an understanding of the wisdom of your body and nervous system while honoring the full complexity of your experiences, culture, and beliefs. I recognize that true healing happens not just in the mind, but in the body, spirit, and in our relationships—with others, with ourselves, and with the natural world around us. I've trained in a variety of complementary modalities, which means our work together can be tailored to what best supports your unique healing journey. My approach is trauma informed and attachment base, and I integrate somatic approaches (Focusing and Polyvagal theory), Brainspotting, IFS and parts work, Jungian psychology and Dreamwork, and ecotherapy. I also offer Equine-assisted therapy in Gilroy.
