You know your patterns. You’ve talked through the feelings. You’ve probably done the mindset work too.
So why are you still stuck?
Because insight, emotion, and action each do part of the job — but none of them, alone, finishes it. Change happens when you know it, feel it, and do something different, all at the same time, enough that your mind actually updates what it believes. Not just what it thinks.
That takes more than talking. It takes experience.
Re-Creation Requires the right Conditions
Recognize
Insight Illuminates.
We get clear on the pattern: where it started, what it’s protecting, why it made sense.
Reconnect
Emotions Activates.
We drop under the story into what’s actually happening physically, as it’s happening.
Recreate
Experience Integrates.
We take action when all of you is activated & ready for a new experience.
Two ways to Re-Create
Both start in the same place: not more talking about the pattern, but an actual experience of the pattern while re-creating something new.
For when you’re facing a specific mental health concern. As a licensed therapist, I draw on a variety of techniques spanning cognitive, somatic, and experiential work to help you build real, lasting change — not just coping strategies. Learn more about my psychotherapy practice.
For open-ended growth work outside a clinical frame. We use conversation, imagery, and somatic techniques to surface the unconscious patterns running your life and create room for something new.
Not sure what’s right for you?
Working through a diagnosable concern → Psychotherapy
Want a licensed therapist → Psychotherapy
Open-ended growth, no diagnosis needed → Experiential Facilitation
Comfortable with an embodied, exploratory approach → Experiential Facilitation
Both lead to real integration. If you’re not sure, let’s talk it through..
Professionally Trained. Philosophically Open.
I’ve got a clinical mind and a mystic soul— someone who trusts the research and trusts what’s in the room.
My approach is grounded in the most current neuroscience, but the work itself is intuitive, because you’re not a formula or a case study.
You're human. So sure, your patterns may echo many other folks’ — but the experiences that move yours are entirely unique.
Common Questions
-
Experiential Facilitation is for working through a specific issue in a directive, growth-oriented way — it doesn’t address a mental health diagnosis, and I don’t diagnose or treat disorders in these sessions. Therapy addresses the causes and effects of mental health struggles directly, with diagnosis and treatment as part of the process. If you’re in crisis, having thoughts of self-harm, or managing severe or persistent mental illness, neither my coaching nor my private practice is the right level of care. Call or text 988 for support that is.
-
Most therapy and coaching talk about your experiences or problem-solve around them. Experiential work creates a new experience, live — in the emotions, the body, the imagination — right as it happens. That’s what makes change stick.
-
Both. In-office sessions are in Pasadena, CA. Online therapy is available in California, Washington, Virginia, and Florida. Online Experiential Sessions are available anywhere.

I take on a limited number of clients so I can give this work the depth it needs — I’ll remember your partner’s name, ask about your dog, actually track your life between sessions. That care is part of what you’re paying for. Reach out through the contact form for current rates; sliding scale spots are available depending on availability.
-
I’m out-of-network, so sessions are private pay. Many out-of-network plans still offer partial reimbursement — check your estimated benefits here, or contact your insurer directly. If your plan reimburses, I’ll provide a monthly superbill you can submit.
