Welcome

Transformation
through acceptance

I work with groups and offer 1-on-1 sessions grounded in deep listening, genuine connection, and practical guidance.

Following what is actually present

I listen carefully for patterns of avoidance, self-rejection, or fragmentation, and reflect them back without judgment. When it's supportive, I offer clear and direct guidance to help people stay with their experience rather than analyze it, override it, or spiritualize it.

Sessions are not scripted—we follow what is actually present. This work is active and relational. Change tends to happen not through techniques or peak experiences, but through being accurately seen and met with honesty and care long enough for something to soften and reorganize. The emphasis is on clarity, self-acceptance, and integration into everyday life.

While themes related to trauma may arise, this work is not a replacement for trauma therapy or clinical mental health care. If material emerges that goes beyond what can be safely held in a reflective session, I name this openly and encourage appropriate professional support.

Patience, discernment, and respect for both depth and limits

After studying media arts and working briefly in film, I spent over a decade living in a spiritual community, helping support an ashram and guiding visitors through periods of emotional and spiritual change.

During that time, I worked closely with people navigating vulnerability, inner conflict, and spiritually intense experiences. Much of my role involved offering steady connection, seeing patterns clearly, and pointing to blockages with care—helping people stay grounded and integrated rather than overwhelmed, idealized, or bypassed.

That long-term immersion shaped how I work today: with patience, discernment, and respect for both depth and limits. I don't approach this work as fixing or improving someone, but as meeting the essence that's already present with clarity, honesty, and care.
