When something keeps repeating in your life—
and you feel drawn to understand what lies underneath.
If you’ve often felt on the outside looking in, or move through the world with heightened sensitivity—taking in more, carrying more—you may already be noticing what others miss.
Here, we work with that awareness—exploring it, giving it form, and allowing something new to emerge.
I offer individual and couples therapy for adults in California who want to not only understand their patterns, but shift how those patterns are lived, felt, and experienced in real time.
My work integrates trauma-informed care, parts work, depth-oriented therapy, somatic awareness, relational work, and expressive therapies. Together, we actively track how your experiences—past and present—organize your inner world, shape your relationships, and live in your body.
This work is especially supportive for highly sensitive people, neurodivergent individuals, and those in the healing professions.
Sessions are available online throughout California, and in person in Berkeley and Petaluma.
THERAPY FOR RECURRING PATTERNS, RELATIONSHIP CHALLENGES, AND FEELING STUCK
You might be noticing:
Patterns that continue to unfold, even when you understand them
A gap between insight and lived change
The tendency to hold a lot—for others, or within yourself
Different parts of you that feel in tension, hidden, or difficult to express
A sense that something deeper is there, but just out of reach
Something in you is already paying attention.
Our work begins by staying with that—and seeing what happens next.
HOW I WORK
In our work together, we don’t only talk about your experience—
we work directly with it as it unfolds.
We slow things down enough to notice what is happening in real time:
in your body, your emotions, your thoughts, your impulses, and in the space between us. From there, we begin to track patterns as they emerge, rather than only reflecting on them afterward.
My approach is guided by six interconnected pillars:
Trauma-informed care — we regulate pace and intensity so the work stays within a range that is supportive, not overwhelming
Parts work — we identify, differentiate, and build relationships with the parts of you as they show up in the moment
Depth work — we follow images, emotions, and meaning as they arise, rather than forcing interpretation
Somatic awareness — we track sensation, activation, and shifts in your nervous system in real time
Relational work — we explore what happens between us as a living example of how patterns take shape in connection
Expressive therapies — we use writing, imagery, and creative process to access and move what isn’t available through words alone
TOGETHER, WE CAN
Track patterns as they happen—not just after the fact
Stay with your experience long enough for something new to emerge
Work through the gap between insight and embodied change
Give form to what has been difficult to access or express
Support shifts that are felt in your body and relationships—not just understood cognitively
This is where change becomes possible—
not through insight alone, but through new experience.
