Shift Wave Therapy

You may be feeling stuck in familiar patterns, navigating a difficult life transition, disconnected from yourself, or caught in relationships that leave you questioning your needs, boundaries, or sense of worth. As a Gestalt Therapist-in-Training, I offer a warm, collaborative space where you can explore your experiences with curiosity, deepen self-awareness, and reconnect with yourself. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, burnout, shame, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, trauma, and life transitions, always meeting you where you are and supporting you at a pace that feels right for you.

I believe healing begins with awareness and a safe, authentic therapeutic relationship. Through deep listening, I pay attention to both what is spoken and what may remain unspoken. Together, we'll explore the patterns that shape how you relate to yourself and others, creating greater flexibility, authenticity, and choice in how you respond to life's challenges. Depending on your needs, our work may include embodied awareness, imagery and metaphor, dream work, and experiential practices that help foster insight, self-compassion, and lasting change.

Before training as a psychotherapist, I spent over a decade working in education with children and youth ages six to eighteen in public, private, and alternative settings. My experience includes extensive work with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, leading a holistic nature school program, living and teaching abroad, and supporting families from diverse cultural, socioeconomic, and Indigenous communities. Alongside many years of personal therapy, my own healing journey has been deeply influenced by traditional South American plant medicine ceremonies led by experienced shamans. While I do not provide psychedelic-assisted therapy, these experiences inform my understanding of healing and support my work with clients seeking integration. My practice is also shaped by a 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training, a 50-hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training, and a 400-hour Somatic Breathwork Facilitator Training, grounding my work in body awareness and mindful self-compassion.
