Therapy

In practice, I draw from many modalities, particularly politicized somatics and Internal Family Systems.

We live in a society founded on myths of supremacy, and this shapes us in ways we do not choose. But we can come to know ourselves anyway, and we can feel, and we can shape back. We can explore joy and healing for their own sake, and as forms of resistance.

Educators, caregivers, health care workers, organizers, and others working inside systems while attempting to change them experience this specific ways. Continuing to offer what you can to the world in the face of burnout or moral injury is hard. Fresh perspective on your conditions, compassion for yourself within them, and clarity about how your values relate to your life in and beyond your work can be a big support. These don’t arrive through revelation; they come through practice. And none of us can do it alone. We need one another.

I work with clients in North Carolina, and accept Aetna, Blue Cross NC, Medicaid (Vaya), or private pay. My cozy office is inside Trinity United Methodist Church in West Asheville (I am not affiliated with the church, but they have dedicated space to community organizations working in the neighborhood).

You deserve excellent care from someone who can welcome your whole self. I offer free consultations to see if we’d be a good fit for one another; please reach out if you’d like to schedule a chat.
