How I Work

I am passionate about working with complex and intergenerational trauma, addiction, and loss (including pet and animal companion loss).

 

I am also dedicated to working with those who are exploring their gender, or sexuality, are navigating multicultural experience of being first generation or a child of immigrants, are creative, or struggle with anxiety, depression, relationships, anger, or the impact of systemic oppression. 

 

When I meet someone, I listen deeply to their story and experiences. I am inquisitive and interactive, and believe you are the expert in knowing yourself (even if it doesn't feel like it).

 

As we work collaboratively, we can creatively pull from  different approaches, including EMDR, somatic therapy, parts work, harm reduction, motivational enhancement (and others) in a way that is explicitly anti-oppressive and systemically looks at how your identities and experiences in this world impact how you feel and what you want for yourself.

 

We can address your experiences in a way that respects your unique nature.  I don’t believe in a one-size fits all approach to treatment, and I’m interested in knowing what works and feels right for you.
