SERVICES & OFFERINGS
INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY
Psychotherapy is a profound process of gaining awareness in one’s life, drawing connections, and breaking patterns. Therapy consists of sorting and decluttering — releasing excess and stagnant emotions and shedding misaligned beliefs. With increased clarity and understanding, one is better able to live a valued life and gain fulfillment. I offer individual sessions with adults who face a broad range of problems, challenges, and transitions.
Specialties:
Depression, sadness
​
PTSD, traumatic stress, sexual trauma, ancestral trauma​
​
Anxiety, worry​​
LGBTQIA2S+ AFFIRMING CARE
There are unique challenges and stressors in being LGBTQ+ in a discriminating world. Yet, there is also tremendous joy and celebration in being gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, gender nonconforming, genderqueer, nonbinary, two spirit, intersex, asexual and other members of rainbow community. Whether you're exploring gender or sexual preferences, need support while coming out or transitioning, or just prefer to have a queer therapist — I'm here for you!
Specialties:
​Gender affirming care, surgery letters​
​
Building resilience and pride in LGBTQ+ identities
Trauma from discrimination, rejection, or hate incidents​​​
HEALTH PSYCHOLOGY SERVICES
The body, mind, and soul are intricately connected, so when there is a physiological problem or dis-ease in the body, it is important to look at the whole self. What is the story of your illness? What is your relationship with your body, the pain, the limitations? How have you been affected by the Western medical system? What brings you life and what in your life is your medicine?
Let’s uncover the answers within you.
Specialties:
Insomnia, sleep treatment
​
Chronic pain management
Digestive problems, dizziness, medical conditions
INCORPORATING SPIRIT &
PLANT MEDICINE INTEGRATION
There are many sacred traditions centered around healing, growth, and spiritual expansion that are outside of the Western medicine framework. If you are seeking connection with your ancestors, the Divine (or your prefered name for Spirit, the Creator, Source, God, etc.), as well as mother nature, we can incorporate these aspects into our work together. Similarly, if you engaged in sacred plant medicine and would like assistance in processing your experience, let me know. Healing work deepens when we are in tune with the messages from your soul, the natural world, and beyond.
