I believe that we are already whole, and our inner wisdom emerges when we feel safe to be seen, share, and reflect. At the Center for Loving-Awareness, we work to let go of inner struggle, and we allow our innate wholeness to be held and expressed in a compassionate awareness. We learn to accept and love the parts of ourselves that have been previously disenfranchised, and through this we actualize values-congruent living and grow into ourselves in a deeper, softer, and more satisfying way. I specialize in grief work, existential, spiritual, and transpersonal therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches to mental health. I have worked in hospices, mental health centers, prisons, and homeless shelters, and my MSW specialized in decolonizing social work. Before this, I spent 3 years in intensive study with my meditation teacher, Ram Dass, in Hawaii. Humans are relational beings. We need each other. Therapy is a space where we can heal, grow, reflect, and access a deeper and more authentic part of ourselves. This allows us to continually calibrate our life in alignment with our deepest-held values.
