You don’t have to walk this path alone. Whether you’re experiencing the isolation of a prolonged arduous health journey, you’re working to figure out life with a new medical diagnosis, or you’re living with the complexity of a body that feels like it houses trauma. I’ve got you.

Together, we’ll work on helping you…

Craft a life with space for joy, despite the complexities you face.

Craft relationship dynamics that can hold the entirety of you, your needs and your experience.

Re-craft a grounded connection between your mind and body, after it was disrupted by trauma or pain.

Most of all, craft an unwavering and enduring relationship with your voice, your intuition, and your sense of self.

I see therapy as a collaborative craft: you bring the raw materials of your lived experience, and I bring tools, empathy, presence, and informed guidance. Together, we’ll process what is not you and create more space for what is.

​Based in Grass Valley, in the beautiful Sierra Foothills. Providing teletherapy for clients across California.

Brainspotting

Brainspotting is a trauma processing modality rooted in REM sleep science (much like EMDR). We'll utilize spots in your visual field to access and re-process traumatic experiences, and restore homeostasis around the stressor. With Brainspotting, we can facilitate trauma recovery.

Somatic, Relational Therapy for Medical Trauma Processing

With the use of polyvagal theory, brainspotting and somatic work, we will process the imprints of adverse medical experiences and repair the mind-body relationship, while resting in the safety of an affirming, reparative therapeutic relationship. Here, you are heard, believed and understood.

Somatic, Mindfulness-Based Therapy for Highly Sensitive People

For highly sensitive people experiencing somatic and empathic stress, we'll work to process and release what is not yours, to create more space for what is. We'll work to decrease overwhelm, while strengthening your foundation of regulation, your capacity for discernment and your innate voice.
