Biography

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in California and Tennessee, specializing in somatic and eco-approaches to psychotherapy, clinical supervision, pedagogy, research, community building, and social change. I live on the original homelands of the ᏣᎳᎫᏪᏘᏱ Tsalaguwetiyi (Cherokee, East) people, where I steward 20 acres of land and host circles, workshops, and retreats.

I believe in the power of circle-based, participatory, and empowered learning spaces. I facilitate deep academic inquiry that engages bodily knowing, heart, the natural world, expressive arts, dreams, and ritual. As a somatic and nature-based psychotherapist, I am interested in researching mind-body approaches to wellness and using the felt sense in research methodology.
