University of Michigan Class of 2026

My path into therapy and social work began through peer support and my own journey with grief and healing. I’m a death doula who works with people navigating end-of-life transitions, chronic illness, and the many forms of grief we face, not just in death, but in daily life and change. Grief and transformation are constant, and I’m passionate about supporting others through these tender liminal spaces. To me, there is so much life in death and so much to be
found within times of loss and transition.

As a neurodivergent practitioner, I love working with other neurodiverse minds to co-create ways of living that feel more sustainable, authentic, and joyfully weird. I don’t believe in “normal”, I believe in what works for you. I approach care through a holistic lens, honoring the full complexity of each person’s lived experience and the interconnected nature of our bodies, minds, communities, and environments. My work is also grounded in nature-based practices and herbalism, shaped by years of study and time spent living in Peru. There, I focused on animal-assisted therapy, plant medicine, and traditional healing modalities that continue to inform my practice in a gentle, intuitive, and relational way.

In my personal healing journey, plant medicine and psychedelics have played a huge role for me and I love to offer thoughtful, embodied integration support for those exploring or unpacking these experiences. I see them much like grief, death, and other major transitions, as moments that shake our worldview, and invite new ways of being. I also believe in the medicine of laughter and being wonderfully human together. I aim to be a warm, grounded presence, offering care, honesty, curiosity, and a gentle reminder that none of us have it all figured out. We’re all just walking each other home!
