For over 15 years, I have served as a consultant, guiding individuals through high-stakes, high-stress environments to address deep-seated patterns around uncertainty, fear, self-worth, and survival. Through this work, I discovered that true transformation happens when we address unresolved trauma and relational attachment wounds held within the mind, body, and nervous system.
My practice is deeply rooted in neurologically informed somatic modalities, including Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Body-Oriented Gestalt, Internal Family Systems, and Polyvagal Theory. Working with people from over 40 countries has shaped my profound commitment to social justice, equity, and multiculturalism. Transformational growth happens in a non-violent, collaborative space. It's important to validate how societal structures impact individual well-being while honoring each individuals' unique adaptations.
Guided by non-violence and organicity, the belief in the body's self-healing intelligence, my goal is to empower clients and improve their mental health by helping them build somatic and non-somatic resources, expand their capacity to regulate emotions, become clear on values, and support true authenticity.
Mental health is a social justice issue and innate human right. My practice actively works to decolonize therapeutic approaches, moving away from rigid hierarchies to offer collaborative, culturally responsive, and somatically informed care that honors lived experience, validates systemic realities, and helps clients reclaim their innate power and wholeness.

I also specialize as consultant and coach in behavioral finance, helping high performance futures and equities traders address their unconscious psychological needs around risk tolerance. Together we unpack psychological turmoil and maladaptive defenses triggered by the constant barrage of losses, which is an everyday part of their profession. Trading is primarily a psychological exercise since making and losing money touches deep places of powerlessness, uncertainty, fear, loss, self-worth, and identity. I help my clients cultivate awareness, curiosity, and self-compassion. Without fail, our work always ends up addressing profound and unresolved trauma and/or relational attachment wounds. We collaborate to uncover incomplete developmental tasks and create more flexible, healthy, and creative adaptive strategies. I use a variety of modalities to help clients identify conflicts between their authentic and survival selves; discover unmet needs and boundaries; uncover obstacles around developing missing resources; and integrate corrective missing experiences.
