Holistic, Integrative Healing

Compassionate, Grounded Therapy

True healing reaches beyond symptom relief. It’s about coming home to yourself—your body, your emotions, your spirit. I work through a humanistic lens, which means I see each person not as a problem to solve, but as a whole, evolving being worthy of compassion, presence, and agency. In our work together, I integrate evidence-based therapy with holistic and somatic practices to help you regulate your nervous system, deepen self-awareness, and reconnect with the inner wisdom that often gets buried beneath pain, trauma, or the demands of daily life.

This work is especially supportive for those navigating anxiety, healing from trauma, or relationship struggles—as well as anyone longing for a more connected, embodied, and meaningful experience of life.

I draw from:

Internal Family Systems, or Parts Work is both a clinical model and a deeply spiritual path. At its heart is the belief that within each of us is a core Self—a source of calm, clarity, compassion, and inner guidance. When we build trusting relationships with our internal “parts” (the aspects of us that carry pain, protect us, or feel stuck), we create space for healing, integration, and spiritual wholeness.

Parts Work

Your nervous system is the foundation for how you relate to yourself and others. When it’s dysregulated, it can lead to chronic anxiety, shutdown, or reactivity. Through the lens of Polyvagal Theory, I help you track your body’s cues, cultivate safety, and gently build nervous system flexibility—so you can move from survival mode to connection, presence, and vitality.

Somatic Practices

The gut and brain are in constant communication. I support clients in exploring how nutrition, blood sugar stability, and lifestyle rhythms impact mental health—particularly mood, focus, and emotional resilience. Nourishing the body can create the internal conditions for greater clarity, steadiness, and energy, especially for those experiencing anxiety, depression, or burnout.

This integrative work isn’t just about feeling “better”—it’s about becoming more whole. Over time, clients experience:

  • A stronger connection to Self—the calm, clear, wise presence within

  • Greater emotional regulation and resilience

  • A sense of spiritual grounding and purpose

  • Deeper, more authentic relationships

  • Relief from chronic stress, anxiety, and mood imbalances

  • The ability to live from a place of alignment, not just coping

Areas of Focus:

Anxiety often arises when our system is working hard to protect us—sometimes from failure, sometimes from vulnerability, sometimes from the unknown. It can be exhausting to live in a state of constant alertness. Together, we can slow down, listen to what your anxiety is trying to communicate, and support your nervous system in finding more calm, clarity, and choice.

Anxiety

Relationships can stir up our deepest fears, needs, and longings. You may find yourself stuck in patterns—pulling away, trying to please, feeling unseen, or misunderstood. These patterns make sense when we consider your lived experiences. In therapy, we explore what’s happening beneath the surface, helping you relate with more clarity, boundaries, and self-trust—while honoring your capacity for connection.

Relationships

Trauma isn’t just what happened—it’s what your body and nervous system had to do to survive. Sometimes it looks like shutdown, reactivity, shame, or feeling disconnected from yourself. I hold deep respect for the ways you've learned to cope and create safety. In therapy, we gently build trust with the parts of you that carry pain, helping you reconnect with a sense of wholeness, safety, and Self.

Tending the Self in a Complex World

I have a special passion for supporting femme clients as they navigate the unique challenges of the healthcare system, relational dynamics, and the internalized messages they’ve carried through life. Together, we explore the ways larger systems—like patriarchy, capitalism, and medical institutions—shape your lived experience, while also nurturing your sense of agency, voice, and choice within those systems.

I especially enjoy helping femme clients develop a more compassionate and attuned relationship with themselves, their bodies, and their natural rhythms—whether that’s the ebb and flow of monthly cycles, seasonal shifts, or transitions across the lifespan. There is deep wisdom in these cycles, and therapy can be a place to reconnect with them.

I support clients in exploring how identity—such as gender, neurodivergence, race, culture, and orientation—shapes their experiences and self-understanding. With a systems-oriented lens, I honor the impact of marginalization and make space for the emotions that come with it. Rather than pathologizing these responses, I help clients reclaim agency, self-trust, and meaning within the complexity of who they are.

I also approach this work with awareness of my own positionality as a white, cisgender woman. I recognize the privileges I carry and remain committed to ongoing self-examination, cultural humility, and creating a space where clients feel seen, believed, and respected in the full truth of their experiences.
