Background

Welcome
Welcome!

I am a long time San Francisco resident who works via tele heath and in person in Hayes Valley. My practice focuses on individual and relationship dynamics from a trauma informed, interpersonal and humanistic framework. I draw from Gestalt, parts and somatic modalities as well as emotionally focused therapy to help you discover more options and joy in your life.

I bring to my practice my lived experience as a queer, non binary social advocate. My previous work for over two decades was in serving those experiencing poverty and homelessness. Agency, autonomy and liberation are values central to my work and inform how I create the container we work together in.

As a therapist and healer I hope to guide and support you in developing a connection with the wisdom that lies within you. Bringing forth choice and the freedom to heal and release as well as define and grow. There are deep wells of resource within each of us - ready support us as we cultivate a life a authenticity and integrity not only for ourselves but for those close to us and the communities we live in.

If my words resonate with you, please reach out and schedule a free 20 minute consultation via video or phone.

Until we meet, be well.
