Psychotherapist. Shamanic Coach. Workshop Leader. Teacher. Artist. Herbalist. 
Life is a winding river. At each turn we are challenged by change, encouraging us to grow, adapt, and evolve. Ungrounded, this can be an unduly stressful experience. Shamanic counseling connects you with your own inner compass helping you to navigate these changes with confidence.

I'm a psychotherapist (LPC Intern), shamanic practitioner, artist, and herbalist. I received a MA in Counseling from Southwestern College in Santa Fe, NM and a BA from Swarthmore College in PA. I have apprenticed with master herbalists and learned from shamen in the Peruvian Amazon and American Southwest. I focus on three main relationships: the one with your Self (the truth in your heart), your Community (family, relationships), and the Earth (stewardship and responsibility for the sentient being upon which we live). I named my practice VOW because the path towards the truth in self-discovery requires commitment and responsibility.  I describe my approach as Humanistic, Archetypal, Jungian, Transpersonal, and Shamanic.  Through this blend of approaches, we can work to contextualize all of your experiences into the greater fabric of the story/lesson/purpose of your life. Treating events and conditions as symbols as well as mundane realities will allow us to extract as much meaning from the rich and responsive world around us. I lead workshops and see private clients both in person and online.
