she/her
I am a white, cisgender, queer, able-bodied woman who resides in Boulder, Colorado (unceded Arapaho, Ute, and Cheyenne land). I am a creative arts psychotherapist, psychedelic-assisted practitioner and multidisciplinary artist who takes a relational psychodynamic approach with the goal of facilitating healing for individuals with experiences of complex trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and codependency. Many clients come to my practice feeling emotionally overwhelmed and disconnected from themselves, having difficulty setting boundaries, struggling with attempts at rescuing/fixing others and patterns of self-abandonment related to trauma and oppression.
My practice focuses on cultivating a safe space to explore relational wounds and find healing through fostering empowerment, self-discovery, self-understanding, and self-nurturance. I incorporate approaches including art therapy, ego states therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, EMDR, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). I enjoy the exploration of one's internal world, existential pondering, creative expression, and meaning making practices. I am a queer feminist and additionally offer LGBTQ+ affirming care. I hope to increasingly embody anti-oppression, collective liberation, and community care in my therapy practice and existence as a human.
