About My Clients
We are human beings forming a connection from the moment we meet. Our connection is where healing, and thus therapy, begins. I approach therapy from a holistic place, seeing us as living beings who are part of and in relationship with the world around us. Therapy is an opportunity to invite deep healing for ourselves, which leads to the transformation of our community and ultimately, the world.
My Background and Approach
Our bodies are storytellers. They retain and remember our lives through the sensations we have experienced. When life becomes overwhelming, whether from a specific event or exhaustion over time, we can enhance the healing process by tending to our body’s stories. In our work together, we will cultivate a space for you to engage these stories and learn embodied practices to begin aligning your mindset and your actions, paving the way for healing to occur. I work with adult and adolescent individuals, partnerships, and groups from ages 13 and up, and I focus on supporting BIPOC (black, indigenous, and people of color) folks, those struggling with autoimmune disorders, and anyone interested in exploring spirituality. I received a Bachelor’s of Science in Health and Wellness Promotion from the University of North Carolina Asheville in June 2016, and a Master’s of Arts in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology in April of 2021.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Therapy is an opportunity to give focused attention to the various parts and pieces of ourselves that have been hurting, and offering them truth and care, so we can step further into our truest expression. I am mindful of the ways environmental, systemic, and internalized oppressions from our varying identities impact our mental health and wellbeing, both on an individual and collective scale. As such, I offer reflection and connection on this in our work together. The specifics of the healing process are particular to each person's unique personality, desires, and intersections of their identity regarding: race, ethnicity, gender, culture, class, ability, education, sexual orientation, culture, language, age, etc. My hope in our work together is that you are able to find healing and more sustainable ways of leading the life you envision: connected to your self, community, and the earth.
