Counseling Trailhead Alliance
Available this week
Specialties: Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, LGBTQIA+, Life Transitions

Introduction

I believe that we make meaning of our lives through stories. We each have a story of who we are and why our lives unfold the way they do. Our work will explore how these stories influence your present experience and connection to the world. My own story includes themes of a rural upbringing, engaging in the punk and bike messenger scenes, leaning into my queer and trans identities, and learning how to utilize outdoor adventure and movement as a tool for growth and healing. I am particularly passionate about working with students, those in the LGBTQIA+ community, athletes, and anyone interested in nervous system regulation. I use a nature based somatic approach that utilizes tools from narrative therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, polyvagal theory, mindfulness practices, and parts work. I see all my work through a trauma-informed lens and I begin with nervous system regulation to set the foundation for growth and change. I provide therapy in nature, in the office, or online. Please reach out to start your journey today and discover the power and strength within your story. I look forward to working with you.
