In my work, I see the process of healing as a transformation in three stages: (1) learning the skills to sit and be present with life, exactly the way life is. (2) identifying and doing the things that promote our most closely held values. (3) being, in each new moment, more like our authentic self. Sitting, doing, being. Whether you are going through major life changes, feeling stuck in old patterns, finding yourself through gender or sexual identity, or trying to integrate experiences outside the bounds of consensus reality, it helps to have a guide who can help you find the footing along your path.

I practice mindfulness-based therapy, drawing on elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy coping skills, and inner-directed therapeutic approaches like Internal Family Systems Therapy. For clients that prefer a mind-body approach or have struggled with traditional mindfulness meditation, I offer Tai Chi and Qi Gong instruction. My practice is feminist, sex-positive, and LGBTQ+ affirming. I also offer integration therapy for clients who have been through profound experiences in non-ordinary states of consciousness, whether through meditation, spiritual seeking, or psychedelic substance use.

Ketamine is a safe, legal psychedelic medicine with highly promising emerging research for its use in the treatment of depression, trauma, and other mental health disorders.

To participate in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy with me, you will need to acquire a prescription for ketamine. This can be done through a ketamine clinic near you, through one of the online ketamine therapy services, or through a medical provider in private practice. I'm happy to help provide referrals in this area. I also require that you complete a Release of Information form to allow me and that provider to have active communication during the ketamine-assisted psychotherapy process. If I am in-network with your insurance provider, we can bill your talk therapy sessions to your insurance, but your insurance may not reimburse you for your in-clinic ketamine sessions.
