You may be wondering how you are possibly going to put your life back together. Or, maybe, perhaps you're praying that you can finally put the vice down. Maybe the heartbreak of loss and unexpected endings is eating you up. We might be a good fit for one another if you're queer, poly, considering recovery, interested in a somatics based practitioner, and vibe with crystals and energy. Whatever it is, let's share a cup of coffee and figure it out together. If you are committed to your wellness and have a desire to seek restoration for a weary soul, hit my line. It is my privilege and honor to walk with you. Let's Get Well, Y'all!
As a trained addictions counselor, I work with people who are experiencing emotional pain and want it to stop. We find that pain in a variety of ways and the suffering feels completely overwhelming. I get it. I overstand. Let's turn and face that something inside of that desperately wants to be healed.
I am a Black, queer, non-binary, transmasc social justice practitioner who is deeply committed to this project of liberation. I am a carceral abolitionist, somatic practitioner, and certified experiential dream therapist. I'm always eager to integrate holistic, intuitive, and eclectic methods including dream therapy and bibliotherapy.
