A space for deep, body-led healing — and the quiet power of beginning again.
I work with adults and couples navigating the complex and enduring impacts of trauma — especially the kind that doesn’t always come with a single event or easy explanation. My areas of focus include:
-
Developmental and complex trauma
-
Disordered eating and body image struggles
-
Dissociation and disconnection from the body
-
Sexual trauma and the slow, sacred work of reconnection
-
Religious trauma and the unraveling of inherited shame
Many of the people I work with come to therapy not because they’ve never tried before — but because they’re ready to go deeper. They’re tired of coping. Tired of shutting down. Tired of feeling stuck between feeling too much and not feeling at all.
My work centers the body and nervous system — not as an afterthought, but as the foundation of sustainable emotional and relational healing. Together, we listen for the places that have been holding, bracing, or surviving… and begin to gently shift toward regulation, safety, and connection.
Why “New Moon”?
The new moon is quiet. Almost invisible. But it marks the start of an entirely new cycle — one that begins not with a dramatic burst of light, but with stillness, reflection, and subtle shifts.
That’s how I see the healing work I offer.
Much like the gravitational pull of the moon influences ocean tides, the effects of trauma and stress show up in the body — in waves, patterns, and rhythms that are often unconscious. In therapy, we begin to notice what pulls at you. What rises. What quiets. And most importantly, what’s ready to be listened to.
The new moon symbolizes a return — not to who you were, but to what’s always been true beneath the noise, the defenses, and the demands of a world that asked you to disconnect in order to survive.
A Practice Rooted in Justice and Care
New Moon is committed to anti-racism, cross-cultural responsiveness, humility, and responsibility. This includes an ongoing personal and professional commitment to understanding how systems of oppression affect mental health — and working actively to reduce harm in and outside the therapy space.
I wholeheartedly support and affirm BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals, and strive to create a space where your full identity is not just welcomed, but honored.
This is healing work that acknowledges the context you’re living in — and holds it with care.
What Healing Might Look Like Here
-
Supporting nervous system regulation to improve sleep, digestion, and felt safety
-
Loosening the grip of trauma symptoms, patterns, or protective responses
-
Rebuilding a sense of connection with your body, boundaries, and internal cues
-
Making room for grief, anger, desire, and the full range of emotion
-
Exploring the impact of early attachment wounds or spiritual harm
-
Creating new relational patterns rooted in authenticity, not appeasement
-
Developing nourishing practices that support healing beyond the therapy room
-
Feeling less like you’re managing your life — and more like you’re living it
This isn’t performance-based therapy. There’s no gold star for doing it “right.”
Just space. Space to be human. To feel. To explore. To heal in a way that honors your nervous system, your pace, and your truth.
