What do you do?
I am a care-worker who provides emotional support sessions. I work with clients one-on-one, in pairs, and in conflict resolution settings. My goal is to be present with what challenges you, and collaborate on what might be helpful. I create space where folks can discover their capacity for curiosity, personal agency, and relief.
Who is this practice for?
This practice is for the people. I believe everyone deserves caring, generative, and accessible support. My practice is based in non-hierarchal care. This means that you are the expert on your own experience, and I am here to hold it with you. I am intentionally not a mandated reporter, and I never call the cops. It is my priority to support those whose work, activism, and existence are criminalized.
How does this process work?
These sessions can be done through video, phone, or in person in my home office located in Decatur, Georgia. Virtual or phone sessions can be done from anywhere. We’ll start out with a free video consultation. Sessions are offered on a sliding scale, $50-$100 per fifty minute session. How much you choose to pay within this scale is up to you, every session. Included in these sessions is the opportunity to explore through writing, breath work, and guided relaxation. We can do these things a lot or a little or not at all. This space is yours to experiment in.
Is this therapy?
I am not a licensed therapist. What I offer is not therapy, though you may find the experience therapeutic. What I offer is a space where we share power. We are both learning. And while I am offering practices that I have refined over a lifetime of supporting people, none of my knowledge or skills were attained in academia. In general, I do not strive to teach clients. I invite us to continually experiment together.
Where does this practice come from?
I have been caring for people for all of my adult life.
For years I created curriculum and taught at a Hebrew school in Atlanta. The activities that I designed supported kids in exploring how to care for each other, build compassionate communities and honor our own needs. I was also often learning alongside students. This experience taught me that spaces in which we share power allow us to imagine more expansively. Imagining what we haven’t yet seen is how we build futures better than what we have experienced.
I am particularly apt in holding space for the intimate details of people’s lives. As a former at-home childcare provider of over a decade, I am accustomed to supporting people through the most intense and private experiences that they will navigate.
In 2015 I founded Sittersphere. Through this service, I connected hundreds of families and childcare providers and supported them in cultivating meaningful relationships. I am so proud of that work. After 5 years, I began to realize that what brought me the most fulfillment in all my years of care work was not specific to parents or youth, or even their relationships with each other. It is specific to supporting people in loving themselves and each other more effectively, and that is what I do today.
