As a mental health coach, the backbone of my work is informed by empirically-sound protocols from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). In addition to these models, I have specialized training in somatic coaching, a framework that leverages findings from neuroscience and mindfulness-based interventions. This experiential work helps you deepen awareness and integrate insights by holistically connecting with your body's innate intelligence.
I practice culturally-responsive care, and take an anti-oppressive stance in my work. I practice trauma-informed care, harm reduction techniques, as well as sex-positive and gender-affirming care. I am committed to radical inclusion, doing all I can to ensure every aspect of your identity feels safe and welcomed in our sessions.
I adhere to the highest ethical standards in mental health care: HIPAA compliance, ongoing clinical supervision, and making referrals should client need exceed my scope. I use clinically validated assessments to ensure you’ll be a good fit for coaching.
