About My Clients
I work online with a wide population of individuals. I have experience using the body and nature in helping you identify and change behavioral patterns that are getting in the way of living your best life. I help you explore and heal the parts of you that are in discord. As an online therapist, I do request that my clients are not in crisis, but are relatively stable and looking to cultivate and nurture their personal growth process.
My Background and Approach
After working as a massage therapist and yoga therapist for a decade, I went back to school to obtain my masters in mental health counseling so that I may combine and bring together these many modalities to help individual access and learn to trust their own wisdom and guidance. During my masters program, I spent time working with adolescents in the wilderness and gained a healthy admiration for the healing power nature has to offer. Mostly, though, I actively and deeply listen to my clients as I believe they know themselves the best and my job is to help them learn to trust that. I use modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, Yoga, eco psychology, and a narrative approach when working with my clients. I try to help them learn to listen to the unique language of their own bodies and I help them trust these insights.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
While no longer affiliated with one religious group, my practice with yoga and meditation has connected me to Spirit and the Divine in a way that feels deep and personal. I see and use metaphor in most things and experience synchronicity in life as a guide post. I value freedom, independence, curiosity, nature, and exploration. While no longer fully active in the LGBT community, I do have roots with this community and enjoy working with members from it. I am a new mom to a one year old girl. This has opened me to a whole new population of people I relate with on a much more personal level. I love being a mom and it comes with its challenges to personal identity, time management, self- worth, and relationships to both partner and in general.
