About My Clients
I work with all genders, teens, adults, elders, individuals and couples. I am LGBTQ+ allied. I worked with relationship issues, trauma and PTSD, parenting issues and family conflict, anxiety, depression, stuck emotions, anger management, codependency, grief, life transitions, divorce, and empowerment issues.
My Background and Approach
I work with nature as a cotherapist in session, whether outside or indoors. Nature offers us a powerful presence, can teach, guide and empower us, and helps us to regulate our physical bodies. I work in an embodied way to help you process emotions and shift states to a more grounded and empowered place where you are in touch with and acting from your true self. When needed, and you are ready, we can move towards the hard things in your past that are affecting how you are feeling and functioning today. Sessions are client led, which means that in each session we address the issue(s) that you bring in, what you are wanting to look at that day. I hold a strong container for our work together that provides safety for our work, takes the session deeper and gets at the real issues that are underneath what the story seems to be on the surface. I will walk with you towards the hard things that are stuck internally in order to bring flow and change.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe our sense of well being and belonging begins within ourselves and is solidified in our connection to the people and the natural world around us. I weave this belief into every session I have with clients. I grew up outdoors in the mountains and have always felt a deep connection to nature. We feel something so profound when we see the sky full of stars or pause to truly take in the immensity and grandeur of nature around us. Nature gives us perspective, grounding, connection, physical regulation, and can be our guide and our teacher if we let her be. I believe in the indomitable nature of the human spirit and that each of us has the ability to craft our own lives with the tools we have been given. I love to be outside, to work with my hands, spend time with my kids, enjoy an evening around the fire, and spend time in stillness in nature. Together, we can learn to breathe, slow down, ground ourselves in this moment with acceptance, and and step towards our own thriving.
