About My Clients
Do you relive memories like it was happening right now? Do you feel sad a lot or isolated? Have you experienced a traumatic upbringing and oppressive systemic injustices that left you feeling anxious or frozen? Been living on "auto-pilot", going through the motions to avoid past hurts? You can experience liberation from your past pains and lead a more resilient and vibrant life. Together, we can nurture a path toward sustained healing and empowerment.
My Background and Approach
My therapeutic orientation is embedded in mind-body based healing, Brainspotting, liberation psychology, and polyvagal theory. I believe that traumatic experiences reside in the body and mind, remaining unprocessed to preserve a person's present survival. You will experience healing and regain trust in your own nervous system's ability to heal and thrive. My clients have shown me the universal necessity for secure connections with oneself and the world to heal from deeply rooted trauma and to cope with lived injustices. Every day I am filled with gratitude for leading a life dedicated to healing and transformation. I am eager to walk along side you in your healing journey and attune to your needs and growth.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I’m most passionate about empowering folx who are marginalized by their traumatic experiences, social location, and systemic injustices. I have a special heart for working with adults who have experienced sexual abuse, incest, intimate partner violence (domestic violence), violent crimes, racial trauma, intergenerational trauma, and developmental trauma. Further, having seen systemic abuse of LGBTQ+ folx firsthand, I am dedicated to serving BIPOC LGBTQ+ adults to navigate the intersectionality of various identities.Having grown up in a small immigrant family with minimal social resources and the cultural virtue of “don’t’ cause any trouble”, I have seen firsthand the implications of systemic silencing of female identities, interpersonal violence, and developmental trauma. The communal experiences of violence survivors ignited a desire in me to aid in healing trauma wounds. I understand how difficult it is to have loved ones deny your reality your whole life.
