Holistic Therapy Services
via telehealth for individuals, couples and groups in California.
Offering somatic, holistic & transpersonal psychotherapy to individuals & couples residing in California.
My approach
I believe the deep work of therapy is integration. It is the compassionate calling back the parts of ourselves once abandoned, disavowed or forgotten. It is the practice of remembering ourselves whole.
My approach is somatic and recognizes embodiment as a necessity for cultivating equanimity. We can know what is “well” in our minds, yet the effort is met with barriers when the body clings to the echoes of past pain and suffering. Thus our work together grows from the foundational understanding that the mind, body and spirit are intricately connected, and the individual is connected to a web of relationships.
The work can be messy, nonlinear and dynamic. Sometimes we begin the process and uncover the hurt that’s been hiding. But rest assured leaning in with the right kind of support attunes you to an aliveness that makes the joy clap like thunder.
My hope is that our work together can help you source your inherent strength, resilience and ability to open to a deeper level of understanding and intimacy with yourself and the world around you. This is the work of empowered change.
I collaborate with both individuals and couples. I offer support groups and multidisciplinary education that explores the psyche, soma and soul.
