My approach to therapy is essentially somatic, trauma-informed, humanistic or person-centered and anchored in the assumptions of liberation psychology, anti-oppression and response-based practice.

I am committed to a decolonized or re-indigenized view of health. Instead of viewing behavior and symptoms through the lens of pathology, I ask: How has your nervous system been responding to the world around it, and why? How can we work together to hold both compassion and curiosity around your experiences, while taking steps to move closer to your authentic desires? What are the stories or experiences you hold that need to be heard, processed and re-integrated in a safe enough haven? 

These are the questions I ask to support you in remembering and reconnecting to your own inherent resiliency and sacred resources for navigating your life. I aim to be a skilled companion on your journey, a compassionate reflector of your strengths, and someone who can hold onto possibilities of hope and love, when it feels too hard to do alone.
