Committing to know all parts of yourself is a tender and transformative journey. If you feel fragmented or unsure how to meet yourself at this moment, you’re not alone. I support people in exploring and embracing their full complexity with curiosity, presence, and care.
My work centers on somatic-centered contemplative therapy, guiding you to turn toward your inner experience and listen deeply to the innate intelligence of your body and emotions. Together, we focus on what feels most alive in the present, creating space for spontaneous insight, self-trust, and intuitive healing to emerge from your embodied wisdom.
Living with fluid, layered identities has given me a personal understanding of the challenges of self-acceptance in a world that often pressures us to simplify who we are. This perspective informs my work with clients who navigate liminal or “in-between” spaces—including young adults, multiracial, multicultural, and queer folx, as well as those exploring existential or spiritual questions—helping them honor and integrate all aspects of their identity and sense of self.
I approach therapy as a collaborative partnership grounded in trauma-informed care, cultural humility, and social justice. Healing is both personal and shaped by the broader context of your life—including identity, culture, and social circumstances. Together, we explore these dimensions, fostering self-awareness and insight into the systems that influence your lived experience. My hope is to help you feel at home in yourself, so you can engage with the world and your relationships with clarity and authenticity.
I strive to offer the supportive, collaborative space you’re seeking, I would love to invite you to reach out for a free consultation.
