The Question That Started It All
I've spent the last 20+ years asking one questionWhy do some people heal while others stay stuck?
That curiosity has driven my 20 year career and taken me through advanced evidence-based trauma training and cutting-edge psychedelic-assisted therapies to studying with traditional healers in Mexico, Guatemala, and Colombia. And now Iโm bringing those insights to audiences around the world through international speaking and education.
Today, I weave the wisdom and techniques from those experiences into a whole-person approach that helps people move beyond what's holding them back to create meaningful, lasting change.
FAQ
-
No two people experience trauma the same way, so I don't believe therapy should follow a one-size-fits-all approach. Rather than focusing only on symptoms or a diagnosis, we'll explore the experiences, relationships, nervous system patterns, beliefs, and life events that shaped who you are today. My work integrates evidence-based trauma therapies with insights from attachment theory, somatic approaches, and traditional healing practices to create a personalized treatment plan that's tailored to your unique story and goals.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, life transitions, grief, perfectionism, people-pleasing, low self-worth, and the lasting effects of difficult childhood experiences. Many of my clients have tried therapy before and are looking for a deeper approach that helps them understand why they feel stuckโnot just how to manage symptoms. Whether you're navigating a recent event or patterns you've carried for years, therapy can help you move toward greater clarity, resilience, and connection.

Our first session is about getting to know you. We'll talk about what's bringing you to therapy, what's happened in your life, what you've already tried including an in depth exploration of your life, and what you're hoping will be different. Together, we'll begin developing a personalized plan based on your goals, experiences, and strengths. My intent is that you leave feeling understood, with a clearer sense of where we're headed and confidence that you don't have to figure it out alone.

Yes. I provide secure online therapy for adults and couples in Washington, California, Texas, and Arizona. Research has consistently shown that telehealth can be just as effective as in-person therapy for many concerns, while offering the flexibility to attend sessions from the comfort of your own home. All you need is a private space and a reliable internet connection.
-
I am an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. Choosing not to work with insurance allows us to focus on your healing rather than insurance requirements, diagnoses, or session limits. If your insurance plan offers out-of-network benefits, I'm happy to provide a superbill that you can submit for possible reimbursement.
-
Yes. I provide psychedelic integration therapy for individuals who have had experiences with substances such as psilocybin, MDMA, ayahuasca, ketamine, or other psychedelics. Integration therapy is designed to help you make sense of your experience and translate insights into meaningful, lasting changes in your daily life. I do not provide or prescribe illegal substances, and all work is conducted within ethical and legal guidelines.
