My approach engages theoretical perspectives of contemporary Jungian psychology and intergenerational trauma studies, integrating the weight of creative material, images and instincts in dreams, and symbolism. Working from this depth psychological lens, we become interested in the interpretation of mental and emotional processes rather than attending to behaviors alone. Part of our work would involve developing an awareness of patterns in emotions, thoughts, and beliefs to gain insight into your current self. I work to maintain a space of dignity and safety, recognizing the unique instincts, identities, and wisdom that arrive with you.

A standard session is 50 minutes. Payment is due upon meeting. My standard fee is $165. I do offer a sliding scale ranging between $120 and $220 based on income and external support. We can discuss how this sliding scale works, its role in communal support and liberation, and what it means for you.

I am usually in-network for Santa Cruz County’s Medi-Cal insurances. If you do not have Medi-Cal and would like to take advantage of your out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill, or monthly statement, that you can submit to your PPO plan for potential reimbursement.
