Healing mind and body through connection
Hi, I’m Courtney,
I’m so glad you’re here. I am a queer Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Trauma Sensitive Yoga Facilitator who specializes in embodiment therapy—healing through connecting mind and body. Whether you’re looking for a spin on traditional talk therapy or are eager to work towards healing without much talking at all, you’ve come to the right place.

Engage in Intensive Therapy
I see clients in person in my office in Santa Monica and virtually for Intensive Work—multiple hours at a time of intensive therapeutic work that can jumpstart your healing journey.
Engage in weekly Individual Therapy
I see clients individually both virtually and in person at my practice in Santa Monica, California. In sessions, I utilize a variety of somatic modalities including EMDR and Parts Work. Through our work together, I will help you learn more about yourself and build a stronger connection between your body and mind, all while healing the wounds that may have disrupted this connection in the first place.
Unconditional acceptance. As Carl Rogers is often quoted, “the curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” I promise to accept you exactly as you are from the moment we begin our work together.
Sharing power. Your voice matters to me. Your boundaries matter to me. You will always have final say over the techniques and interventions we use.
Co-regulation. I will stay regulated so you can be dysregulated.
Authentic relationships. Trauma often happens in relationship, thus, healing also happens in relationship. I strive to create a safe, healthy relationship within which you can heal.
Humor. Sometimes we need to lighten the mood!
