No mind exists without the body.
No body exists without the earth.
My work lives in the space between the personal and the systemic—where nervous systems meet relationships, communities, institutions, and the living Earth. Through somatic psychotherapy, ecotherapy, clinical leadership, and a person-in-environment perspective, I explore how healing becomes possible across every layer of our lives.

01 / Perspective
“Good clinical work is more than technique. It also depends on therapeutic presence: the therapist’s attunement to themselves, to the client, to the nervous system, to the therapeutic relationship, and to the systems shaping what is possible.”
My training as a clinical social worker shapes how I understand both individual care and organizational leadership. I pay attention to complexity: the nervous system and the larger system, clinical judgment and operational design, evidence and lived experience.
That perspective has taken me from community-based treatment and inpatient psychiatric care to private practice, therapist education, executive clinical leadership, and the development of new tools for EMDR clinicians.
