A Bit About Me

I’m sure you might want to know a bit about who you might be working with. Well here’s a lil bit about me…

I am originally from St. Louis, MO, and have also spent time living in Alabama and North Carolina in my adult life. I moved out the the PNW in 2020 to start grad school at The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology where I graduated with my Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2024. Although I sometimes miss aspects of the Midwest, I feel deeply at home here in the Pacific Northwest. I have long been emotionally and spiritually drawn to trees and immediately fell in love with the fuzzy green trees of the PNW. Living out here has also grown my relationship with the Earth in general in her many different forms. I believe that we have a lot to learn from nature. I also am working my way through Seattle’s pizza restaurants to try to find the best slice of ‘za this city has to offer. So far Lupo, A.K. Pizza, Tivoli, and My Friend Derek’s are at the top of the leaderboard.

I have been in my own personal therapy on and off for the past 10 years and am grateful for the lineage of healers that have shaped both my own story and my approach to therapy. I have also had my own healing experiences with ketamine assisted psychotherapy and know the power it can hold towards change and newness.

I consider myself to be a creative, thoughtful, deep, and playful person and I care deeply about (re)connecting people to Love. I’m an enneagram 4w5, an INFP, and I consider myself to be a highly sensitive person. During my off time I might be found doing ceramics, gardening, dancing, hanging out with friends, reading, baking, or spending time moving my body outside.

Right now the books I’m reading include You Are The One You’ve Been Waiting For by Richard Schwartz, Growing a Revolution by David Montgomery, and Sabbath by Wayne Muller.

Music I’m currently listening to include any/all albums by Florence & the Machine, the album Double Infinity by Big Thief, the album SABLE, fABLE by Bon Iver, and the song Fade Into You by Gregory Alan Isakov and Sylvan Esso.
