Who I Work With

My work is grounded in relational, somatic, and trauma-informed approaches. I am drawn to working with people who are ready to explore the deeper layers of their inner world with honesty, curiosity, and real commitment. This is not quick-fix work. We will move at your pace, toward embodied, and often this process is profoundly clarifying in the exploration of your needs.

Over the years, a number of female bodied humans have shared that working with a male bodied facilitator initially felt risky because of past experiences of abuse, harm, or disappointment due to those relationships. They have shared that through our work together, they were able to stay present with that discomfort rather than bypass it, and in doing so, shift long-held resentment, fear, or mistrust. I hold this feedback with humility, and it continues to inform how carefully I attend to power, pacing, and consent in the room.

Specialties
People often come to this work carrying:

• Early relational wounding that still shapes how they connect

• Familiar patterns of anxious, avoidant, or disorganized attachment

• Chronic shame, harsh self-criticism, and difficulty being kind to themselves

• Confusion about boundaries and power in their relationships

• A psychedelic or non-ordinary state experience that needs somewhere to land

• The approach of death, their own or someone they love

• Questions of gender, embodiment, and identity

• The ethical and relational weight of facilitation or caregiving roles

• The particular complexity of ethical non-monogamy and polyamory

• Long-standing patterns that talking about has not shifted

Populations
I tend to work best with:

• Adults seeking depth-oriented healing rather than symptom management
• People preparing for or integrating psychedelic experiences
• Therapists, facilitators, and other healers needing consultation or supervision
• Men navigating inherited toxic masculinity, intimacy and partnership challenges, and parenting
• Individuals rebuilding trust in their bodies after trauma
• People practicing ethical non-monogamy or polyamory who want relational clarity rather than theory
• People who appear functional on the outside but feel fragmented inside
