Hey there! Just your friendly radical, anti-capitalist trauma therapist. As a client, clinician and educator, I would first like to share, thanks for being here. Healing is hard, and what we can endure, and heal from is amazing. Kismet Therapy seeks to make this healing accessible to all through sharing art, tools, to trauma therapy. This site will house podcasts, resources, articles, and the Kismet Collective of other therapists and healers.

 

I am so glad you are here.

​

Seeking space to process trauma and understand your path of healing is a courageous choice. Whether you are new to therapy, or returning to your journey of healing self-discovery — searching for a therapist can be overwhelming. Be proud that you made it this far! I am passionate about processing trauma and working with caregivers, helpers, and those excited to attune to one's own needs. I work with clients seeking to explore a deeper understanding of their attachment, and identities and heal from trauma, abuse, and neglect. My practice welcomes those who identify as neurodivergent, LGBTQIA2+, or consensually non-monogamous.

​

My therapeutic style draws from evidence-based methods to provide relief, direction, and clarity into our patterns as people, and highlight the impact that current and past relationships have on yourself today. You can learn about your attachment style, understand how your attachment style impacts your day to day life and renew your sense of purpose.

​

Societal and systemic causes of oppression (economic, gender, cultural) can incubate issues in our personal lives. In my practice, I deeply value decolonial and anti-capitalist ethos in navigating through the challenging seasons in life and supporting ourselves to move away from the scarcity mentality, and towards the thriving life you deserve.

Talk to you soon!

I am residing on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Osage Nation, the Illini Confederacy (including the Cahokia, Kaskaskia, Michigamea, Peoria, and Tamaroa peoples), and other Indigenous nations who have stewarded this land for generations. These lands—now known as St. Louis, Missouri—were home to complex societies long before European colonization, including the ancient Mississippian culture that built the nearby city of Cahokia, once one of the largest urban centers in North America.

​

These Indigenous communities lived, loved, and thrived along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, maintaining deep relationships with the land, water, and all living things. I honor the enduring presence, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples—past, present, and future—and commit to respecting their sovereignty and right to self-determination. Liberation for all. Land back.
