I encourage you to bring the wisdom of your body, soul, and intuition into your relationships, and to be playful whenever possible.

I have found that traditional talk-therapy doesn’t always get to the root of the problem, and in my practice, I like to incorporate breathwork, mindfulness, and bodily awareness exercises to help my clients reconnect with their innermost selves. I work with the belief that each client who seeks my help is an expert in their own life, and my purpose is to guide and support my clients as they work to overcome barriers and build resilience. I work through the lens of relational-cultural theory, and I use somatic therapy and ecotherapy techniques in my practice. I like to work with individuals, couples, and polycules, and I also enjoy working with teenage girls and nonbinary folks. I offer online therapy as well as walk-and-talk therapy in Santa Cruz County. I speak English, and I am working to become fluent in Spanish.

I am sex-positive, kink and ENM specialized, LGBTQIA+ affirmative, and welcoming to all non-traditional relationships and lifestyles—I consider it an honor to serve my community in this capacity.

Polyamory is a concept that is easier imagined than experienced, which is why I think it is so important that I have over a decade of lived experience with non-monogamy and non-monogamous relationships. I also work with couples and polycules that are engaged in a variety of different forms of non-monogamy. I work primarily with neurodivergent folks, including those navigating ADHD, anxiety and depression; whether working with individuals or couples/polycules, my own lived experience with neurodivergence informs my work. I approach everything with a trauma-informed lens and I’m both relational and psychodynamic. My main modality is IFS and I love parts work in general, including working with child parts. I think this gives important context to any therapeutic relationship! Finally, I am a firm proponent of relationship anarchy in general and I strongly believe in deconstructing the common myths around relationships.

For most of us, relationships are central to our lives and our well-being. And while they can provide love, passion, connection, awareness, and growth, they can also stir up conflict, breakdown, aversion, old wounds, and a lot of frustration. Sometimes we need a place to work this out.

I strive to help people in relationships of all kinds to find their way back through conflict or old conditioning to reconnection, intimacy, and healing. I am direct and pragmatic, and I take a holistic approach that encompasses who you are on all levels: body, mind, and spirit.

I have a Master’s degree in Spiritual Psychology, am a Certified Imago Relationship Community Educator and a certified Hypnotherapist. I do Relationship Coaching and Soul-centered counseling.

Having been through a separation/near-divorce and my own personal struggles in relationships, I have walked the path of pain and confusion that can happen with people we love. Using Imago Therapy and other techniques my husband and I were able to transform our relationship and deepen our intimacy to create an even better partnership than we thought possible. I really feel passionately about helping other couples do the same, whether they are monogamous, polyamorous or anything in between. Sometimes it’s also about learning how to separate from one another consciously and to co-parent or to remain respectful friends.
