Your decision to evolve your place in the world is one of courage, vulnerability, and commitment. I sit with you in presence and curiosity so that each session is a safe space that allows you to hear and trust your inner healer and its deep wisdom. From this sacred space your healing journey begins. We work together on action steps that you take to make real changes in your life. I address: trauma/C-PTSD; intergenerational violence & trauma; grief; religious trauma; survivors of childhood neglect/emotionally immature parents; low self-esteem/self-love/self-trust; toxic masculinity/femininity; life transitions; thriving in recovery; psycho-spiritual awakening; and ketamine integration. I specialize in talk therapy integration for persons enrolled in an outside ketamine treatment program.
In our first session, we will discuss your personal history and journey, and establish a basic road map for your journey. I may ask you to complete more measures, similar to the PHQ and GAD, so that we narrow our focus to what is really keeping you from living your vision.
I practice within and from my heart-mind and authenticity, to help you connect with your inner healer so that you move from surviving and coping to personal empowerment and a life of abundance of all types.
We combine Jungian methods (active imagination, archetypes, dream work) with Dialectical Behavior Therapy trauma skills, integration work, ketamine integration, soul retrieval, journeying, mantra/meditation, and somatic methods to empower you to heal from outdated trauma patterns.
I have 20 years experience with both traditional intensive DBT, and adapting methods to other life challenges.
We use active imagination, dream work, the emotional body, and archetypes on your healing journey.
I offer integration therapy for those in Kaiser's ketamine program for depression and trauma.
We start where you are, with what you have, and we do what we can do without judgment - that's where your growth and healing starts.
