About My Clients

I specialize in supporting folx from all identities who struggle with anxiety, complex trauma, and chronic illness/pain. It strains our relationships, our work, and our bodies, leaving us feeling depleted and isolated. IFS practices can help you find your way through overwhelm, self-blame, and guilt. I look forward to helping you learn tools to rediscover joy and reclaim your life.

My Background and Approach

As an Internal Family Systems (IFS) trained therapist, I use compassionate, experiential tools to help you unburden and increase harmony within your heart, mind, and body. Throughout my career I have centered mindfulness and radical acceptance to help clients find their inner healing and thrive. See https://ifs-institute.com/ for more about IFS.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that we all have the innate power to heal and lead our internal system with clarity, creativity, and courage. That in doing this, I can better connect and be of service to others. I value participating in social justice actions for the LGBTQIA+ community and those most vulnerable in society. I am committed to lifelong unlearning of white privilege, ableism and oppression of all kinds.
