I belive that each of my clients has the strength and capabilites for healing and I am look forward to support you
My Background and Approach
I worked as a equine-assisted psychotherapist- a modality in which people have the opportunity to work with horses as part of their therapeutic process of healing. This helped in drawing the person into the present moment and mindfulness techniques to work through things like trauma, anxiety, depression and learning disabilities. I have also worked with an addiction and abuse recovery center, showing me how systemic and generational oppression can inhibit people’s growth and thriving and providing me with tools to support people in integrated ways. I also work as an art teacher and am interested in the ways in which things such as painting, drawing and writing can provide people with spaces to communicate and express themselves while also contributing to their growth and healing.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I belive in the innate worth and potential for growth in each person but do not believe that our journeys are linear, or that healing or thriving represent a set end goal to achieve or attain. I consider myself someone who, like everyone else, is on a journey and so as you commit to your own therapeutic process, so I am committed to my own. As a cis white women in residing in the so-called USA, I am committed to my own anti-racist, anti-oppressive training and growth and seek to use any positions that I am in to un-do the systems that actively oppress, abuse and disconnect people from the individual and collective thriving I seek to foster through healing practices. Individual healing processes support the collective and vice versa; our personal thriving is rooted in communal thriving. Healing is perhaps one of the most creative, powerful and fulfilling forms of activism we can engage in.
