Welcome
How is your heart and spirit these days?
Do you sometimes feel or wonder if you perceive or feel things more deeply, or in a more nuanced way, than others—emotionally, physically, through your senses . . .
Maybe interactions with others leave you feeling misunderstood or not as connected as you want to be. It could be that you’re just noticing and feeling more, attuned to and affected by subtleties (that maybe don’t feel subtle to you at all). Perhaps you have grown up in an environment where you couldn’t be who you are, and you want a different way of living, being.
Maybe you’re seeking a space where you can access therapy without having to leave any parts of your identity at the door—a therapeutic environment where you can show up as all of who you are.
Humans are wired for healing, and our brains and nervous systems have an amazing ability to create new neural pathways, new ways of being and experiencing. The trauma-informed approach that I use is based in Neuroscience, Attachment theory, based in possibilities for growth and human resiliency, as well as heart-centered compassion and acceptance. It is possible to heal through painful and disconnecting experiences, grow your awareness of and compassion for yourself, and connect with your internal strength, resources, goodness, aliveness.
"Ever since happiness heard your name, it has been running through the streets trying to find you". ~ Hafez
I specialize in working with sensitive people and/or other neurodivergent folks (AuDHD, Autistic, ADHD, Highly Sensitive, Sensory Processing,….including late diagnosed, self-diagnosed, exploring); BIPOC, immigrants; queer, trans, non-binary people; chronically ill and/or disabled people; bicultural people; QTBIPOC; artists; social justice activists; others who experience their sense of self most fully outside of norms, as well as all spiritual people.
In an environment of openness, acceptance and non-judgment, we can work together to cultivate and expand your self-awareness and sense of safety and connection, a feeling of increasing space and ease for you to be you.
