Healing is Not About Fixing—It’s About Reclaiming

Therapy, for me, is not about forcing yourself to be “normal.” It’s about breaking free from the stories that were never meant for you in the first place.

First of all, if you made it to this page —

Welcome. I’m Savannah, I see therapy as a space where your story can unfold and be honored in its full complexity. My work centers on helping people heal the deeper fractures of trauma that shape belonging, identity, and self-worth, not just on the surface, but at the roots. As a queer, neurodivergent therapist of mixed heritage, I understand the ache of navigating worlds that don’t always make room for all of who you are. Together, we’ll explore your story with curiosity, compassion, and a deep respect for the wisdom already within you.

Why I Do This Work

I was drawn to this work to provide others with the resources I lacked, from psychoeducation to liberation within oppressive systems. As a therapist, I value helping clients reconnect with their highest selves and/or their higher powers while navigating the complexities of identity, relationships, and mental health.

I specialize in supporting individuals with anxiety disorders, including GAD, OCD, and panic attacks, as well as complex PTSD and the impacts of developmental and intergenerational trauma. By exploring the unconscious beliefs, values, and messages that shape personality and relational dynamics, I guide clients toward self-awareness, self-compassion, and transformative healing.

My Specialties & Who I Work With

I specialize in working with those navigating:

🌀 Neurodivergence (ADHD, AuDHD, Autism, OCD, Bipolar, CPTSD)

🔥 Complex & Generational Trauma (Attachment wounds, ancestral healing, identity reclamation)

💭 Anxiety Disorders (GAD, OCD, Panic Attacks, Chronic Overwhelm, Perfectionism)

💞 Relational Healing (Neurodivergent relationships, ENM, Kink, Parent-Child, Family Systems)

🍄 Psychedelic Seekers & Journeyers (Preparation, Integration, Spiritual Exploration, Harm Reduction)

🌿 Queer, BIPOC, & Identity Exploration (Unpacking cultural/familial expectations, self-acceptance, intersectional healing)

As a parent myself, I am deeply passionate about relational dynamics—whether that means supporting parents in raising neurodivergent and queer children in affirming ways, helping couples in neurodivergent or non-traditional partnerships build deeper understanding, or guiding individuals through family and intergenerational healing.

I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to healing. My work is deeply relational, holistic, and rooted in depth psychology, neuroaffirming care, and communal healing.

💡 What if therapy wasn’t about “fixing” yourself, but about unlearning the ways you’ve been forced to shrink?

🌱 My Approach Includes:

✔️ Depth Psychology & Narrative Therapy – Exploring subconscious patterns and personal mythology

✔️ Experiential & Play Therapy – Healing through movement, creativity, and somatic exploration

✔️ Transpersonal & Energy Psychology – Connecting with higher self, spirituality, and meaning-making

✔️ Attachment-Based & Emotion-Focused Therapy – Healing relational wounds and fostering self-trust

✔️ Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) & Mindfulness-Based Therapy – Cultivating self-compassion and presence

✔️ Harm Reduction & Trauma-Informed Care – Supporting agency in psychedelic use, neurodivergence, and identity exploration

My work is also deeply shaped by social justice, decolonization, and liberation psychology. I hold space for clients to process the ways oppression, trauma, and inherited belief systems have shaped their identities—and together, we work toward expanding beyond those limitations.

How I Work: An Integrative & Holistic-Oriented Approach

“You are not too much. You are not too sensitive, too complicated, or too broken. You are a whole world within yourself, learning how to exist in a world that was never built for you. Unravel, unlearn, reclaim. You were never meant to fit—you were meant to expand.”
