About My Clients
I'm passionate about working with clients who have survived trauma, be it emotional, physical, or sexual. Your body remembers all you experienced and deserves the space to safely reprocess. I love working with children of immigrants navigating intergenerational family dynamics or cultural conflicts. Together we can weave your intersecting identities and values into the tapestry of your life. I also enjoy working with women affected by the patriarchal systems in which we are forced to exist.
My Background and Approach
I intertwine my experiences as a psychotherapist, yoga teacher, perpetual student, community organizer, and insights from my own mental health journey into my holistic practice. I aim to provide an engaging and warm environment where together we can access tools to help you cope with stressors; set healthy boundaries and improve communication to fuel connection and build relationships; step into your emotions to better regulate them; reprocess past traumatic experiences; and strengthen your attunement and awareness to your body. You have the innate power to heal yourself, I’m simply here to guide and empower you along the way. I use techniques from multiple modalities, such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), somatic experiencing (SE), internal family systems (IFS), intuitive eating, and feminist therapy, while always adding a multicultural and anti-oppressive lens.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am most fulfilled when working with clients of marginalized identities. I am constantly advocating and centering anti-racism, reproductive justice, wealth redistribution, and 2SLGBTQIA+ and Indigenous rights in my work. Informed by my privileged and oppressed identities, I take a strong stance against white supremacy, imperialism, settler colonialism, patriarchal systems, and capitalist structures and will dedicate time to exploring how these systems affect you. It’s impossible to separate the personal from political when we are unassumingly born into flawed systems. This can cause so many of us to feel deeply alone and misunderstood. I strive to work with clients in co-creating a space where you feel safe enough to share your experiences and embrace nourishing new ones. My desire for a more just and socially-conscious world where there is liberation for all fuels me, and I find it so fulfilling to work with folks affected by these structures.
