Therapy for the people others rely on.
A space Just for you.
You carry significant responsibility.
You are thoughtful, deeply feeling, capable, and accustomed to being the person others trust, turn to, and depend on.
From the outside, your life looks full. You have built meaningful relationships, a career, a creative life, or a role in which your strength and steadiness matter to others.
And still, there is more beneath the surface.
Despite your insight and the inner work you've already done, unresolved trauma and familiar patterns continue to emerge—especially in the relationships that matter most.
You understand why you respond the way you do, yet insight alone hasn't changed what happens in your body.
At times, you long for intimacy while finding yourself protecting against it.
You care deeply for others while struggling to receive that same depth of care yourself.
You know how to be strong—and you long for a place where you can be uncertain, vulnerable, messy, or simply not have the answers.
There is more to you than the world gets to see.
Therapy offers a private, confidential relationship where you don't have to perform competence—where what has remained unresolved, unspoken, or carefully protected can be approached with curiosity, dignity, and care.
You aren't simply looking to function better.
You want to live more fully.
What are you longing for?
Perhaps you want to feel safer and more at home in your body.
To experience intimacy without losing yourself.
To understand why familiar patterns continue to emerge in your closest relationships—and finally experience something different.
To loosen the hold of trauma that your mind may understand but your body continues to carry.
To reconnect with desire, creativity, pleasure, and possibility.
To make room for grief.
To feel grounded and connected in a world undergoing profound change.
To experience more freedom, authenticity, connection, and ease.
Not simply to feel better. To feel more fully alive.
I'm glad you're here.
I'm Miya.
For more than twenty years, I've had the privilege of accompanying people through trauma, transition, identity, relationships, loss, discovery, and meaningful change.
I work primarily with women, queer people, creatives, therapists, helping professionals, and leaders— thoughtful, deeply feeling people who carry significant responsibility and make space for the needs of others.
My work integrates trauma-informed psychotherapy with mindfulness, somatic awareness, depth psychology, creativity, and respect for the wisdom each person already carries within them.
My role is not to tell you who to become.
It is to walk beside you as you reconnect with what is most deeply your own.
A space for the whole of you.
Our histories live not only in our thoughts, but in our bodies, relationships, dreams, patterns, creativity, and the ways we move through the world.
Our inner lives do not exist apart from the world around us.
The changes unfolding around us—cultural, ecological, relational, and technological—enter our nervous systems, relationships, bodies, and sense of what the future might hold.
And our inner landscapes shape how we meet that changing world.
Therapy can make room for all of it.
Together, we can explore stuck emotions and thoughts related to past experiences, what you've learned to carry, the ways you've learned to protect yourself, and what is now ready to change.
But therapy isn't only about understanding what has hurt.
It can also be a place to listen for what is emerging.
What wants to come alive?
The work we do together.
Therapy begins with relationship.
Together, we create a space where you can slow down, listen inward, and approach your experience with curiosity rather than judgment.
For many of the people I work with, insight comes easily. You can understand the origins of a pattern and still find your body responding as though the past is happening now.
Our work moves beyond insight alone.
I draw from evidence-based trauma therapies, with EMDR as an integral part of my practice, alongside mindfulness, somatic awareness, depth psychology, dream work, and expressive arts.
My work is also informed by parts-oriented approaches and an understanding that many of the patterns we struggle with began as intelligent ways of protecting ourselves.
When appropriate, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy can also be part of our work.
But no single approach defines the process.
You do.
Therapy is shaped around your history, strengths, needs, and what is asking for attention now.
Healing what has been carried.
Reclaiming what has been hidden.
Cultivating what wants to emerge.
Healing does not ask us to erase our histories or transcend our humanity.
It asks us to become more able to inhabit it.
To remain grounded without becoming closed.
Open without becoming overwhelmed.
Connected without losing ourselves.
To develop greater capacity for intimacy, creativity, grief, pleasure, uncertainty, and change.
To belong more fully to ourselves, to one another, and to the living world around us.
Who I work with
You are thoughtful, deeply feeling, and accustomed to carrying significant responsibility.
You are often the one who cares for others, makes difficult decisions, holds space, leads, creates, or keeps things moving.
And beneath that capable exterior, you are navigating something that asks for your attention—unresolved trauma, anxiety, burnout, attachment or relationship patterns, identity, grief, midlife, or a significant period of transition.
Or perhaps nothing is falling apart.
You simply sense that functioning is no longer enough.
You want greater intimacy.
More freedom.
A deeper relationship with your body and inner life.
More room for creativity, desire, connection, and possibility.
You want to feel more fully present in the life you've created—and more able to meet the life that is still unfolding.
You don't need to arrive with an answer.
We can begin with the question.
Come home to yourself.
Beginning therapy doesn't require knowing exactly where the path will lead.
Only a willingness to begin where you are.
If you recognize yourself here, I invite you to reach out.
We can talk about what is bringing you to therapy, what you're hoping for, and whether working together feels like the right fit.
