One of my favorite song lyrics says, "I'm just a spirit trying to be human." There’s so much weight that lives inside those words: emotions, questions, uncertainty. For those of us who wander, question who we are, or wonder what our purpose is, we can stumble if life hasn’t met our expectations. The majority of my clients identify as misfits, empaths, spiritual beings, and highly sensitive people who have survived childhood trauma, harsh life transitions, and an occasional identity crisis.
I'm specially trained in Existential-Humanistic Therapy, EMDR, and Inner-Child Healing that helps unite the mind, body, and spirit. Integrating those aspects can deepen the relationship you have with yourself, the universe, and others, especially for those who have been through childhood trauma, family enmeshment, and live with existential dread.
I'm licensed in both California and Illinois, and would love to chat more with you whether you're on the coast or in the Midwest. Clients tell me I’m unconventional, hippy-dippy, and I think they’re probably right. If you like my vibe, check out my website for more info.

I work with adults who may appear to have it all together, but feel like shit. I strive to remove the hierarchy between the client/therapist dynamic, because at the end of the day we're two humans having a conversation. Future clients can expect laughing and morbid jokes, saying hi to my dog Waffles, and getting to the root of your issues, because anything less than that is just boring.

Through my trainings & certifications, I've learned some stuff that helps us go deep. You can expect me to ask big questions, slow you down when you're sharing stories, and guide you to be present with yourself and the life experiences. We might dabble in re-parenting your inner child, go back to some sucky memories with image guidance, & sort through your relationship patterns. Whatever helps.
