My Ideal Client

My clients are individuals seeking deeper connection to their body, mind, and emotions. I work with adults of all genders and sexual orientations navigating challenges like intimacy, self-expression, trauma, and self-worth. My ideal clients are curious and open to exploring embodiment practices, mindfulness, and nature’s wisdom. Whether you’re working through relationship struggles, healing sexual shame, or seeking greater vitality, I offer a compassionate, holistic space to support your growth.

My Approach to Helping

Change is a gradual and deeply personal process, and I believe your body holds the innate wisdom to guide you. My role is to support and empower you on your journey of self-discovery, creating a space where your autonomy leads the way. Together, we’ll move at a pace that honors your comfort and readiness, ensuring a personalized and self-directed exploration. Nature is central to my approach, offering a unique lens through which we can explore your experiences and deepen your healing. Reconnecting with the natural world can provide grounding, clarity, and insight into your relationship with yourself and others. Drawing on a variety of somatic and relational skills, I weave evidence-based practices from my CACREP-accredited master’s program at George Fox University with a holistic lens. This integration helps us connect the physical, emotional, and relational aspects of your life to foster growth, resilience, and a more embodied sense of well-being.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in the power of connection—to ourselves, to others, and Nature. My work is guided by values of inclusivity, authenticity, and holistic healing. As someone passionate about social justice, I aim to create a space where individuals of all identities feel seen, heard, and valued. I am deeply inspired by the interplay of nature and healing. I’ve always felt a strong bond with the earth’s rhythms, which I now integrate into my therapy practice. I also advocate for body sovereignty, sexual health education, and breaking the stigma around mental health and intimacy. Outside of my practice, I enjoy exploring nature, practicing mindfulness, and deepening my understanding of embodiment through ongoing training and research. My work is not just a profession—it’s a calling to help others uncover their innate capacity for healing and transformation.
