Holistic Therapy for Adults

You may have arrived here because...

You are an adult of refugee or immigrant parents

Do you feel immense guilt, shame, and confusion around your experiences as a child of immigrant or refugee parents and would love to figure out how to honor your cultural traditions and incorporate them into your own healing?

In our work together, you may discover...

  • How your early childhood relationships inform how you learned to survive and show up for yourself and others
  • Clarity around your values and how to dismantle intergenerational patterns
  • How to balance individual and collective values
  • How to reclaim cultural and ancestral strengths and traditions
  • Experience more joyful relationships

You are spiritually curious or having a transpersonal crisis

Do you find it difficult to integrate your religious or spiritual beliefs with your mental illness or various states of consciousness without feeling ashamed?

In our work together, you may discover...

  • How to discern spiritual emergencies, overcome mental illness, and safely engage with mystical experiences
  • How to unlearn patterns that no longer serve you
  • Processes for letting go and embracing challenges as opportunities for growth
  • Acceptance of change and uncertainity
  • Experience more peace, grounded embodiment, and stillness

You are a psychiatric survivor

Have you experienced harm or abuse with psychiatric treatment and would like alternatives to mental illness support that holds a non-medicalizing, liberation stance and honors your dignity?

In our work together, you may discover...

  • How to rewrite your narrative and reclaim your story, deepening your sovereignty
  • Strategies for processing trauma related to marginalization
  • Improvements in the way you ask for help, address your unique needs, and speak up for your own self
  • Alternative methods of managing your mental illness
  • Experience more energy, vitality, and greater sense of well-being

I work with adults looking for freedom from their pain and struggles with depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues and major life transitions regardless of what has led you to your suffering.

How it works

Step 1

Contact me for a consultation

My free initial 15-20 min phone or video consultation allows you to share what brings you to therapy and what kind of support you are seeking. This is a great time for you to ask questions about my practice to help you determine whether I am a good fit for you.

Step 2

Schedule a session

You will complete intake paperwork before we meet for our first session. The first few are exploratory as we get to know each other and develop a consistent, safe therapeutic relationship.

Step 3

Develop your intentions and goals

After about 3 sessions, we will discuss your intentions and/or goals. I honor the time and vulnerability it takes to build a trusted therapeutic relationship and value meeting on a consistent weekly basis to nurture this time together.
