Build confidence navigating your inner and outer landscapes.

Somatic Art Psychotherapy

An Invitation 

Therapy with me is a space to slow down, reconnect, and make sense of both your inner world and the life you’re living. I support adults who have been shaped by challenging or traumatic experiences, desire more aliveness or alignment, feel caught in anxiety or unhelpful patterns, or are seeking more meaning and ease in their relationships. And in themselves. Together, we create space to expand into the depth and texture of the human experience and into your own potential.

I also support helping professionals, entrepreneurs and business owners, and therapists who want to explore their relationship to ethical power-leadership, identity, meaning, purpose, lineage work, and deepen their capacity for their gifts, shadow integration, and presence.

My work is grounded in the understanding that our inner lives are shaped not only by personal history, but also by culture, identity, power, the environment, and the systems we move within. Drawing from over a decade of clinical practice and 20 years in the mental health field, including as a Board Certified Art Therapist, EMDR therapist, and as a Certified Sensorimotor Psychotherapist (Somatic Therapy), I support healing and resilience by working with the intelligence of your nervous system and your creativity. Inviting greater aliveness in the life you’re living.

Please reach out with any questions or if you would like to schedule a consultation to learn more about what working together may look like for you.

  • Integrative individual sessions, generally weekly or every other week, that pull from sensorimotor psychotherapy, art therapy, EMDR, parts work, contemplative practices, and relational embodied approaches.

  • Experiential sessions for therapists engaged in (or have completed) Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Levels 1-3. These qualify for training requirements and can also be provided to those interested in experiencing the modality themselves before committing to training.

  • Psilocybin facilitated journeys and/or therapy is legally provided through the Reflective Healing center in Fort Collins, CO. This work is an opportunity to deepen into your relationship to self/other, trauma healing, grief work, learning to align your relationship to the world, work with existential themes, explore lineage work (including healing and gifts), and explore an expanded state within a skilled and supported environment. Preparation and integration is provided as an important part of relationship building with yourself and this medicine work. Journeys can be part of a greater therapeutic arc of work or be approached beyond a therapeutic framework.

  • A trauma- and attachment-informed relational container to support the healing of trauma or attachment wounding, a sense of being blocked, a desire for personal growth, or transpersonal exploration. Sessions can follow a traditional 6–8 series or be completed as a standalone or period sessions as part of a therapeutic arc, depending on your needs and goals.

  • Individual sessions aimed at preparing for and/or integrating altered state experiences. Pulling from a relational, transpersonal, parts work, and somatic art therapy approach to working with container setting, insight, embodiment, integration, resourcing, grounding, reciprocity, and relationship building with all that emerges within and beyond psychedelic experiences.

  • I specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ clients and also identify as a Queer therapist myself. In addition to my private practice, I founded True Essence Therapy, which is a medicaid & private pay group practice with several skilled licensed LGBTQ+ affirming therapists who provide quality holistic therapy services. Many Queer clients struggle to find affirming services, so I find it important to provide specialized services for LGBTQ+ folks.
