My journey to becoming a therapist is unconventional and a lifetime in the making.

I've always been drawn to deeper conversations and getting to know how people think, feel, and move through the world. For a significant portion of my life, that curiosity mostly existed in my personal life with friends, partners, and family members.

Over time, and through significant life changes and pushes from the universe, it became clear that this was not just an interest but something I needed to dedicate my life to learn more fully.

One of the core things I bring into my therapy is my ability to be present and sit with individuals from every walk of life. I’ve practiced non-monogamy for over a decade and have worked through my own significant religious trauma.

When I sit with clients, I am fully myself. I am not trying to perform or be someone I’m not. I’ve found that the groundedness that I bring to sessions with clients allows them to settle, feel at ease, and to access parts of themselves that might not usually be available.

I trust that meaningful change can happen when two (or more) people share a space with that energy.

I am a pre-licensed therapist currently completing my training at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) and Golden Gate Integral Counseling Center in San Francisco.

My work is informed by relational, psychodynamic, Gestalt, and transpersonal, approaches, with an emphasis on presence, awareness, and the therapeutic relationship.
