My Approach to Therapy
As a practitioner I weave together culturally validated care approaches with evidence-based experiential, process-based and somatic therapies. This means acknowledging the value of our lived experiences and the broader systemic contexts impacting us all. Through guided practices of reflection, skill-building and present moment awareness, I help facilitate a deeper understanding of whole-body learning and your unique resources, strengths and support needs. Together we'll find trusted pathways of [re]connection for whenever you're feeling uprooted.
​
I also offer the following services in sessions via telehealth or in-person (including community/nature-based or group settings):
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, brief [solution-focused] therapies, play therapy, relational therapy and support with integration within psycholytic/psychedelic-assisted therapy.
I encourage a brief call to ask me any questions you might have
and to get a sense of what feels right for your next step towards finding support.
