You deserve support when it all feels overwhelming.
Do you feel like you’ve been holding everything together? Sometimes being alive feels relentless, especially when you’re navigating a world that wasn’t built for you.
You’re a caretaker, always thinking about how to support those around you, but somehow your needs fall through the cracks.
Your body hurts and your emotions feel physically painful. Sometimes you just want a break from being in your own body.
I help the people who are great at surviving. The ones who have never had a chance to rest. Together we will slow down, learn what you need, and make a safe enough space for joy to emerge.
What is Somatic Therapy?
Somatic therapy is an approach to healing that considers a person’s holistic experience, addressing the ways our bodies and brains process and integrate traumatic or difficult experiences. In somatic therapy you can expect questions and curiosities about how things feel in your body, what sensations you notice, and how your body responds to different emotional experiences.
I am located in person in Oakland, CA and available for virtual sessions.

Expansive Love: a practical guide to relationship anarchy
Relationships Designed to fit you
Relationship anarchy is a new term for a very old practice: prioritizing relationships of all kinds, not just romantic connections. But how does one build an ethical community of friends, lovers and more?
This book will explore how to build and sustain fulfilling relationships within the relationship anarchy framework. We'll discuss the history of relationship anarchy, give you guidance on building intimate relationships with all kinds of people in your life, and look at the ways that relationship anarchy can support a fulfilled and joyous community. This book will offer philosophical, historical, sexological, and anthropological context as well as practical tools for building nuanced, complex, and expansive relationships that traverse and defy social norms.
My goal as a healer is to offer care and transformation for relational, body, and sexual shame for all individuals and as a society. I believe this work is integral to creating a better world for all of us.
