Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you doesn't mean you can, should, or need ot do it
alone.

Therapy & Consultation Services
Through a somatic-oriented therapy or coaching my goal is to support you to fully heal and come back home to your body and your true self. I aim to provide a safe space for folks to better understand and unpack their oppression to find empowerment through understanding and self-discovery.

I offer a non-shaming and safe environment to help better understand attachment styles and provide tools to improve communication around attachment, needs, desires, and safety.
Becoming a parent reveals to us our long buried, and often problematic, parent-child relational models provided to us by our caregivers. Many of us on a healing journey are trying to break intergenerational cycles of trauma through our parenting and self-healing work. Through our therapeutic work you will gain tools to help to identify and reorient dysfunctional patterns. I provide a non-violent, grounded, and safe space to heal your inner child, allowing you to be the parent to your own child (and yourself) that you never had.
Sliding scale sessions are available for QTPOC or BIPOC low-income folks
