Creating space to be
Centered in mind-body connection & spiritual restoration
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life & you will call it fate”

If you could think your way out of your own suffering, you would have done it by now. True recovery from complex grief and trauma unfolds through the body, and within the safety of relationship.
At Intra, psychoanalytic depth integrates with modern, research-backed methods to create meaningful change at the emotional core. By maintaining a small caseload, I ensure that every client receives attentive, resourced care. This intentional approach provides the precision and quality needed for results you can feel.
Depth Therapy
Together, we’ll examine your past experiences to discover core wounds that you may be unconsciously holding. Through this process, you’ll develop the capacity to receive the richness of your inner world and channel your emotions in a more honest and adaptive way.
When you begin to understand what you’re feeling, you’ll become clear about what you need. Clarity that will empower you to make intentional, life-changing choices.
This isn’t just a possibility—it’s a dedicated commitment to change I witness in my clients every single week.

In the beginning of treatment, we’ll meet weekly. Once a strong therapeutic relationship is established, you’ll engage in a mind-body connection practice every fourth week, in place of talk therapy. Integration weeks empower you to tap into your inner resources between sessions, allowing for deep healing without the risk of burning out from therapy.
Depth therapy is ideal for those who benefit from long-term, weekly support. This approach is particularly helpful for those who:
Are new to therapy and ready to fully commit to the process because change is urgent.
Have previously tried cognitive-based therapies (thought work) but didn’t achieve the lasting results they were seeking.
Are in a stable enough place to commit to weekly sessions and do not require immediate crisis support.
Want to address deep-rooted psychological and emotional challenges.
Somatic EMDR Therapy
Emotional numbness, anxiety, chronic tension, and disconnection are often signs of a nervous system that has been carrying too much for too long.
Traditional Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. Somatic EMDR incorporates the body as an essential piece of the healing process for complex PTSD. I’ll support you in turning toward your felt experience — rather than overriding, ignoring, or pushing past your body’s signals. As we restore the essential communication between your mind and body, you’ll strengthen your capacity to sit with dysregulation without panic, without shutting down.
This is a focused 2 hour experience that helps you begin to understand the “why” behind your struggles. You'll walk away with more clarity, emotional relief, and insight than you thought possible in a single session.

Extended sessions are ideal for my depth therapy clients who are ready to fade out from their weekly appointments due to sustained progress. Using trauma-informed therapeutic techniques and somatic EMDR, we’ll gently release any tension, memories, or pain stuck within your body and mind. This work can be helpful to those who:
1. Have been in group or individual therapy with me in the past and are seeking focused, intensive support
2. Feel stuck in their ability to change their beliefs through talk therapy
3. Have childhood, pre-verbal or transgenerational complex trauma
4. Live in the Seattle area and want to try out in-person therapy with me (making the most out of the commute) before committing to a full day intensive
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a well-researched and effective therapeutic method that combines low to moderate doses of ketamine with therapy to enhance treatment outcomes.
If other approaches haven’t provided the relief you’re seeking, ketamine therapy may be for you. KAP takes a powerful, yet gentle approach to healing, addressing deeply ingrained patterns and the brain's chemical systems. By temporarily softening psychological defenses, KAP creates space for deeper self-reflection and emotional processing.
Ketamine works to disrupt rigid beliefs and create new neural pathways, facilitating lasting change. Many clients experience profound shifts in their outlook and overall well-being as a result of this disruption. Please check my Ketamine Therapy page to learn more

KAP can be particularly helpful for those who:
Walk through life with a ‘narrow’ focus and may have been perceived as judgmental, even if they don’t see themselves that way.
Struggle to ‘zoom out’ and see others' perspectives with gentleness or softness, especially when they disagree with others' choices.
Feel suffocated by self-sabotaging beliefs.
Understand that there is no ‘quick fix’ or ‘magic pill,’ and view KAP as an additional resource for healing, complementing the work done in traditional therapy.

Yoga Groups
Yoga-based group therapy brings together a small group of people with the intention to foster collective healing. Community offers a safe holding container to bear witness and welcome all parts of our suffering. We will trust the body to guide us inside and nourish our nervous systems by flowing between playful and restful states of awareness.
Investment: Varies for each offering. Check upcoming group offerings here.

Sessions will include discussion, embodied practices, skills, and processing facilitated by me. These groups are a safe and inclusive space where you can share, reflect, show up fully, and cultivate safety within. The more we become curious about our inner experience, the greater our capacity to turn toward one another and connect with our shared humanity.
Grief & Loss
Grief is the emotional response to the loss of safety, the loss of the familiar, and the challenge of adapting to a new reality. Complicated grief persists longer than typical mourning, often lacking the sense of meaning or adjustment that restores heartbreak. Signs of complicated grief may include difficulty completing daily tasks, chronic withdrawal from social situations, or feeling disconnected from reality—like being stuck in a dull dream you can't escape.

Life Transitions
Mid-life is often marked by a series of significant life transitions, including shifts in relationship status (separation, divorce, widowhood), changes in health, becoming an empty nester, reproductive changes (infertility, menopause), and work-related challenges (job loss, demotion, or missed promotions). Adjusting to these transitions can bring about emotional and behavioral responses that may feel overwhelming, requiring support to navigate the changes effectively.
Stress
Feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands? Struggling to unwind, recover after stressful events, or feeling scattered, anxious, and fatigued? These stress-related symptoms may show up as a relentless pursuit of perfection, difficulty being present, or being stuck in resentment and frustration. By dropping into your body, you can feel and process your emotions on a deeper level. Effective stress management works with the body, not against it.
Is spacious and dynamic.
Through a steady, supportive presence, we will explore the depths of your mind, body, and emotions—uncovering insights that lead to real, lasting change. This process isn’t always graceful! Finding balance on shaky ground will strengthen your ability to cope with hardship and suffering. As your resilience grows, so will your capacity to take clear, grounded action.
