“I dreamed about a culture of belonging.” – bell hooks
Welcome!
I am an experienced trauma and grief counselor, offering individual and group counseling that liberates the soul and transforms personal suffering into spiritual growth, connected relationships, and collective healing.
What I offer:
- A refuge for people experiencing loss and/or trauma
- A safe place to explore what’s hurt you, and find yourself again
- A way to make meaning of your suffering, and a transformative process that can transmute your pain into purpose, connection, and deep peace.
- A community in which to continue to heal and grow that can mirror you, hold you, celebrate with you, call you on your stuff, and love you through the hard stuff.
- An opportunity to consider what matters most to you, and learn how to live into it
- Liberation and aliveness. Your loss and trauma does not have to define your life. You can have a life worth living.
How do I do this?
Through a unique and powerful combination of individual and group counseling, I leverage the power of community to support a comprehensive path to deep healing and a vibrant experience of belonging.
We are not meant to gut this life out alone. We evolved in community, and can tap this resource to learn how to have satisfying intimate relationships, a solid sense of Self, and a place in the world. You belong here.
