“Psychotherapy for a Soulful Life”

◈ ◈ ◈ ◈ ◈ ◈ ◈

JUNGIAN & DEPTH THERAPY ◈ SOMATIC EXPRESSIVE ARTS PSYCHOTHERAPY:

This is a space for remembering. A refuge carved out of love for ritual & imagination. Here, healing unfolds slowly: at the speed of stone and the depth of rivers. You may be arriving with your heart in your hands and a longing to find your way Home. You have taken the most important step: seeking a companion to walk with you through the landscape of your life.

As a Somatic Expressive Arts Therapist & Registered Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, AMFT 129203, I hold psychotherapy as a sacred encounter: each session a threshold, each story a doorway.

I offer a loving space to descend into the unconscious: the unseen currents beneath your feelings and choices; those quiet forces that shape your story and guide your path. With creativity and ritual as our compass, we navigate the depths together.

My clients long to reclaim their intuition and ancestral wisdom, yearn to hear the whispers of their own authentic voice, and find sanctuary within their bodies and lives. Here, we listen deeply to the unseen. Welcoming transformation so that new growth may emerge from the fertile darkness within

MY APPROACH:

The seeds of my work are rooted in my life as an artist, storyteller, musician and devotee to life’s Great 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.
