Grounded, Compassionate Care 

Compassionate-Somatic-Pyschotherapy-logo

Healing begins when we find the space to listen to the gentle wisdom our bodies hold. My practice is rooted in the belief that turning inward with compassion and curiosity can unlock a deeper sense of grounding and inner peace. Whether through individual therapy, parent coaching, or child therapy, I am here to support you, your child, and/or your family on the path toward feeling more connected to yourselves and the world around you. I believe every person carries a deep, innate need to be seen, heard, and understood. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you reclaim restoration, strengthen your relationships, and enhance your overall well-being. Utilizing trauma-informed care across the lifespan, I invite us to co-create a space grounded in safety, where you and your family can show up as your whole selves and foster the strength to thrive.

About Me

I grew up nestled in a mountain basin, surrounded by clear alpine waters and towering peaks. From an early age, the quiet beauty of these landscapes taught me to value stillness, presence, humility, and our connection to the natural world. My path later took me abroad, where work and travel deepened my understanding of resilience, belonging, and human connection. Eventually landing in the Bay Area, I was drawn to its vibrant tapestry of people, cultures, and stories, which continues to inspire my belief in the richness and complexity of our lived experiences. It was here that I came home to my calling as a therapist.
