How I Can Help

I serve as a guide for people who want to create meaningful change and live in alignment with their values.
My approach is primarily somatic(“body-based”), meaning I bring curiosity to one’s felt experience—a
fluttering in the chest or muscle tightening—as a way to get to know oneself more deeply. I offer
mindfulness-based tools for both exploring one’s felt experience as well as building skills for coping with
stress. I appreciate how practical this approach is and how quickly tangible solutions to life’s problems can
be revealed through listening to the body.

My Background and Experience

Having first trained as a biologist, I bring a passion for the details of life and awe of the power of
interconnectedness. After learning to dissect life and reduce it into quantifiable terms, I realized I was more
drawn towards the expansive and unpredictable potential of life. I believe everyone has a right to live a
purposeful, connected, and empowered life. In my experience, a supportive therapeutic relationship can
help reveal the path towards living fully. I am honored to be a part of the flourishing that happens when
people connect to their inner wisdom and capacity to grow.

My Approach

As a somatic psychotherapist, I am curious about how personal, familial, cultural, and intergenerational
experiences shape our body-mind-spirits. I offer explorations to increase awareness of patterns, unlock
places that feel stuck, and develop practices that align with therapeutic goals. I bring tenderness, humor,
and humility to the process of change. My approach is trauma-informed and best suited for individuals
currently residing in California looking for weekly Telehealth therapy.

Internships

We offer a supportive private practice internship program, allowing pre-licensed clinicians (AMFT/ASW/APCC) to earn an income, accrue hours towards licensure and develop the clinical and entrepreneurial skills required for success in private practice. During the Coronavirus pandemic, we are continuing to accept new associates, helping them to launch practices as teletherapists. We also occasionally accept newly licensed clinicians, helping them to launch their private practice careers.

Services

In response to the Coronavirus, we now focus on providing teletherapy (therapy by phone and video) to our clients. Teletherapy can be helpful to individuals of all ages, including children and teenagers. Couples and families can also benefit from the convenience, flexibility and effectiveness of teletherapy. Please call or write us today to learn more about our services.
