JUNGIAN & DEPTH THERAPY ◈ ECO-THERAPY ◈ SOMATIC & EXPRESSIVE ARTS PSYCHOTHERAPY:

At times, we've all struggled with feelings of unworthiness, isolation, fear, grief and disconnection. It may be from the life you’ve created, relationships you’ve chosen, secret desires you’ve rejected, or parts of yourself that you have abandoned to please others. My clients are people who are searching for their authentic voice, yearn to reconnect to their intuition and ancestral wisdom, and create a sense of home in their bodies and lives. But, there are times when you may have found yourself on the outside looking in, and no longer able to see yourself reflected in the world you created.

I offer a loving space to explore the unconscious lands of your feelings and choices, examine the invisible patterns that have influenced your life, while using creative tools & ritual to cultivate connection, self awareness and empowerment, choose your next steps with clarity and live your life with freedom.

MY APPROACH:

As a Registered Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, AMFT and Somatic Expressive Arts Psychotherapist, the seeds of my work are rooted in my life as an artist, storyteller, musician and apprentice to life’s Mysteries. My offerings are woven from the threads of Afro-Indigenous wisdom traditions in the United States, the Caribbean and Latin America, as well as Jungian and depth psychology, which integrate ritual, art making, myth & storytelling, movement & dance, Tarot, somatic exploration & dreamwork as pathways for healing and doorways to the wild unconscious.

My work focuses on artists, healers, creative women, femme and non-binary identified people, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, first generation, immigrant and refugee communities. I offer a loving and non-judgmental container for your experience, affirm your voice and accompany you as an ally to the gates of your inner world.
