I offer warm and authentic presence, and create a nurturing environment that encourages emotional healing and maturation. However, I don't hold back from challenging clients' limiting mindsets and beliefs that get in their way…My psychotherapeutic work reflects my journey with making sense of my own neurodivergence,which dips in the domains of OCD, Perfectionism, and ADHD-and realizing the effects of The Programming on my Self.

I find fascination, vitality, and passion in my work and service to others.

After studies in Psychology at Concordia University in Montreal, and University of British Columbia in Vancouver, I departed from my motherland and landed in San Francisco at the California Institute of Integral Studies where I completed a Master’s Degree in Psychology, and recently, a certification in Psychedelics Therapies and Research.

Professional experience has been gathered in various settings, ranging from medical centers (Marin General Hospital, California Pacific Medical Center) Clinics; Wellspring Psychotherapy Center, to my own private practice. I have an affinity for working with people who experience Autism, Anxiety, OCD, ADHD, Various Learners, Depression, Life Transitions, Perfectionism. My clients often have been identified as “Gifted” and Highly Sensitive, creative iconoclasts, activists, Visionaries, and empathic rebels.

I’ve served extensively in residential treatment facilities for severely emotionally disturbed children/adolescents and their families having faced adverse life/family situations. This has been some of my most rewarding learning in compassion and empathy for those whose history has been rooted in injustice, oppression and trauma.

I weave in the teachings received globe trotting on our gorgeous planet. I travel to meet with and listen closely to First Nations and Indigenous People’s Wisdom on how to be and behave in theses times…I say we are in pressing need of reviewing how we relate to each other, and all living creatures. I bring in office the lessons of nature; trees, plants, birds, horses...Animism. I am also very engaged with ideas and concept of Land Reciprocity, and Rewilding,and weave in timeless Esoteric perspectives. I have researched my ancestral lineages, and encourage clients, and their parents, to do the same. Meditation is a daily practice; it brings a receptive, inspired, and engaged mind and Heart. I am an artist; I dye fabric and make natural pigment paints from plants and rocks, and stitch. I frolic on trails and swim in the bay and lakes with my German Shepherd, Kika. I study the medicinal aspects of plants and food, and grow and forage my meals. Taking my work as a Psychotherapist at a global level, I am currently visioning/building a project called Reinventing Relations; the creation of a new blueprint in world relations. A New Humanity; Planetary Activism. I am a mother. This offers me daily perspective on the rewards, challenges, and learning lessons children and family life offers.
