Grief Tending
Trauma Healing
Soul Work
Hello, and welcome to my practice! I work with sensitive, anxious deep-feelers who have experienced childhood trauma and loss, and help them find the vitality that comes when we get witnessed and feel what needs to be felt, leaving room for joy, curiosity and play. My clients have the chance to open to a more loving, connected relationship with themselves, and in turn, the people in their lives. I am passionate about the work of tending grief and healing trauma and my goal is to help you find more wholeness, belonging and aliveness in the world.
We are living in extraordinary times, dealing with losses from fire and climate change, a pandemic, exhaustion from work burnout, racism and living a culture that doesn’t know how to address grief and dark feelings. I am here to tell you your grief deserves support, your trauma deserves healing.

Grief Work
“Where there is sorrow there is holy ground.” (Oscar Wilde) Loss brings us to the deepest parts of ourselves, tender and raw, despairing and beautiful. Our culture, so addicted to the quest for happiness, can leave us alone and lost at a time we most need to feel held. I aim to help you find ground in this grief, to reframe its importance, to learn to befriend and know it, and find the richness in this precious work of mourning and loving the one you lost, whether it is through death, divorce, earth loss, or others.

Trauma Healing
Experiences of trauma can truly disrupt our lives. Whether it is a single event or recurring stressors, we need help and support to process and integrate these experiences. Through work with proven modalities such as Brainspotting, I can help you come into a place of safety, connectedness, and flexibility, so you no longer have to be in an activated state, or removed dissociated state. I welcome those who have experienced perinatal loss, fire survivors, medical professionals, and those with childhood trauma, and more.

Soul Work
Integral to my work is a sense of tending the soul, garnering an internal relationship with the self and the cosmos. Working with soul, we welcome the dark places, the wounds, the sorrows, and in so doing we create acceptance, and spaciousness where joy and connection can emerge. Tuning into ourselves as interconnected with the air, the sun, the trees, our community, we can feel more welcomed as part of this life, and have places to bring all of our experience. The works of Francis Weller, Carl Jung, and Clarissa Pinkola Estés, among others, inform my work in this realm.

Neurodivergent Affirming
I welcome children and adults who are Autistic, have ADHD, Sensory Processing Sensitivities and unique ways of being in the world, to my practice. While neurodivergence brings its challenges to living in the modern world, I am continually inspired by the insights, creativity and heart brought by the clients I am honored to get to know. I offer the Safe and Sound Protocol to help increase regulation for those with social anxiety and sensory sensitivities.

Gender Affirming, LGBTQ+ Celebrating
I welcome the beautiful spectrum of queer folx to my practice. I follow the lead of each client to support what needs attention, and what is emerging on their journey through life. I have experience working with people at various stages of gender transition.

Adults, Teens and Children/Families
I welcome adult individuals, families, teens and children to my practice. I work with a mixture of depth work, mindfulness, and specialties such as Brainspotting to create a container where healing, acceptance and deepening can take place, which is unique to each person or family. I enjoy getting to know you and the unique being that you are. When working with children I offer play therapy, art and sandtray, as well as talk therapy. I can offer the Safe and Sound Protocol as an option to increase emotional regulation and decrease social anxiety.
