does your life feel stuck?

You know that things just do not feel right, but you keep struggling for answers. Perhaps you are struggling with motivation or feeling like your life is not as fulfilling as it once was. Maybe you are noticing conflict patterns in your relationships, or maybe you cannot trust enough to remain in right relationships.

You know something needs to change…you’re just not sure what.

connected healing is where you can belong and thrive.

Some of the ways my practice offers you and your circle counseling in a new way:

  • Holistic Counseling- Counseling services that integrate your full experience. I will work with you to identify your unmet needs and connect you with community resources to not just survive, but thrive.

  • Somatic Experiencing- This evidence-based model for treating traumatic experiences will give you immediate tools to decrease tension in your body and increase flow.

  • LGBTQ+ Expertise- Bringing over a decade of work within the LGBTQ+ Community across the lifespan as well as my full lived experience as a queer person, my work will make space for your journey and empower you to better navigate this deeply challenging world.

This is a space where you can be fully, unapologetically you.

I believe that we all can find the answers we need within our bodies. Over the last decade, I have collaborated with hundreds of of people to find safety and connection in their internal experiences and in the outer world. From supporting survivors of gun violence to unhoused queer youth to community peace circles, my experience is across the lifespan and dedicated to you.
