Witnessing is a relational, trauma-informed container where we meet what’s happening around you and within you with spaciousness and grace. When we return to safe relationships, we are more equipped to build capacity to be with what is, to transform freeze into our natural state of flow, awe, and wonder, and to nurture our own sources of light.

Here, I meet you beyond pathology, beyond “fixing,” in the presence of mindful compassion, attachment-rooted care, and loving awareness. Together, we might breathe in silence, craft rituals, cry, laugh, rage, or simply rest. We return to relationship, because when we’re together, lightness is far more possible. I believe that our personal sources of light are the torches guiding us through our times into the new and beautiful worlds being born of all the breaking.

This is a touchstone place where you are invited to lay down anything which may be hindering feelings of belonging; a place where parts of you who have felt misunderstood or unseen will have an opportunity to be recognized and embraced. Within a safe container we establish together, we begin with beautiful questions. "What do you need today? How can my presence, imagination, and unconditional care help carry this need with you?"

Together, we explore whatever feels most important to you—whether you need clarity and nervous system regulation, to map out life’s next steps, process waves of emotion, or simply be deeply heard and understood.

These sessions are held via Zoom, with occasional availability in Austin, TX.

Witnessing can be built into your wellness routine, or experienced in one off sessions.

When I muse on the dream of the ideal witnessing client, I feel that it is truly all of us.

Together, the Practice was formed in response to my own experience with collapse and isolation, and the subsequent medicine of being held by teachers and beloveds. As social beings, in order to survive, it is imperative we be regularly witnessed, known, and remembered by the living world. Without the touchstone of attuned relation, we are more susceptible to all forms of fray.

As we collectively move at breakneck speeds, maintaining access to secure spaces where we may slow down and consistently root into shared fields of pause, peace, and restoration is essential for our wellbeing and our future. Witnessing is a foundational art of resistance against oppressive forces.

If you are of the mind that individual effort cannot sustain us, you have found a kin. We are living through a liminal period in the history of humankind, the fertile void as many scholars call it. When in the dark of in-between times, we must reach out our hands and let the waves of processing pass through us in relationship. Though we are always in a perpetual becoming, these times we are in are quite extraordinary. At once razor-sharp and overwhelming, our age brims with the possibility of a world more beautiful than our wildest imagination. And as with all births, surrender and support are the two hands ushering it in. Witnessing is a space where we may both surrender and find we are held in support.

My intention is for the island I live upon, tend to, and bear fruit from to be a place where you know you are welcome to dry off from the outside storm, lower your protections, shuck off accumulated weight, and build a stronger inner network of care that may plume outward, enabling you to embrace your life with more courage, strength, and lightness of heart.

Those who are neurodivergent, highly sensitive, have experienced family estrangement, attachment trauma, and carried a sense of being the “black-sheep” have found time in witnessing particularly supportive.

Here we can share a moment for you to tune into your body's wisdom, entering mutual discernment before determining a path forward. 20-minute Zoom consultations are free of charge.

If this is your first time in a 1×1 Witnessing Session, I'll send you an intake form by email the day before we meet! This will serve as my tuning fork, connecting me to your needs before we meet, allowing me to step into our time together prepared to support you.

While Witnessing offers meaningful support, it's important to note that it's not a replacement for licensed mental health care or crisis intervention.

As a Community Social Worker with extensive experience navigating resource databases, I'm always happy to connect you with additional support tailored specifically to your needs!

I work with clients of all ages anywhere on earth.
