Grief & Loss
Grief is a natural and complex response to loss.
Together, we can hold and honor your grief
so that you can remember her name is love.
Examples of what we might grieve:
death of a loved one
endings of relationships, friendships, phases of life
sense of safety attributed to direct and indirect exposure to trauma
desired futures and outcomes that are no longer possible
sense of identity with life transitions
& many more.
“Grief is how we remember.
Hope is how we continue;
Love is why we do both.”

Intergenerational Healing
“K(no)w history, k(no)w self.”
- Jose Rizal
Intergenerational healing happens when you’re ready to learn & unlearn patterns of being within yourself, others, and in the world
as influenced by how you were raised, how your caregivers were raised,
and how their caregivers were raised.
Intergenerational healing processes can be painful, confusing, and disorienting, but please know that you do not have to walk this journey alone
and where there are intergenerational traumas
there are also intergenerational strengths.
Topics often explored throughout this journey include:
childhood/adolescent, historical, generational trauma
identity/self-esteem
relational challenges attributed to cultural conflicts
Stress, Burn-out, Compassion Fatigue
Does it feel like you’re running on empty because work, school, caregiving,
or just life in general leaves you with nothing left?
Are you finding yourself doomscrolling, chronically tired, and/or feeling jaded because these seemingly unending “unprecedented times?”
You’re definitely not alone.
Sometimes when we’re stuck in survival mode
or in a seemingly perpetual state of overwhelm,
it can feel hard to re-center, feel grounded,
and take inventory of what misalignments are in our lives.
It can also be difficult to sort out what’s in our control and what isn’t, create actionable steps for sustainable change, and care for ourselves in new ways.
Together, we can use real tools for creating change.
Perinatal Support
"You are not failing. You are struggling.
Those are not the same thing."
-PSI (Postpartum International Support)

Many common experiences matrescence incurs include:
nonstop worries
self-doubt
confusion
pressure and overwhelm
guilt
all shades of exhaustion you didn’t know existed
Relationship Challenges
Regardless of how introverted we may be, we are all social beings and seek connection.
In today’s world, it can feel challenging to foster meaningful relationships for ourselves among
family members, romantic partners, friends, work colleagues, etc.
This might look like:
difficulties communicating needs and boundaries (or even identifying what these are across different relationships)
feeling isolated, lonely, othered
challenges finding/maintaining your “tribe/chosen-family”
growing apart in friendships and going through the process of establishing new ones
experiencing social anxiety and self-esteem dips
break-ups, divorces, separations
patterns of being in relationships with others that prevent the relationships from continuing in sustainable and healthy ways
Ready when you are-
let’s work together.
Unsure, but curious?
That’s totally normal and okay.
