About My Clients
Are you struggling with some life circumstance and not sure where to turn? Have you been experiencing emotions that sometimes feel overwhelming and you need an empathetic space with someone who can understand and support you as you learn and grow? Are you open to traditional talk therapy but also excited about the possibility of taking sessions outside and healing while walking and talking? I believe in my clients' innate strengths and I look forward to supporting you in your growth.
My Background and Approach
My education includes a CBT approach and my personal style is client-centered and holistic. I believe in the trifecta healing ability of talk therapy, nature and movement. Through walk and talk therapy people are often able to express themselves differently than in an office setting. I offer both and am flexible to the client's needs and preferences. I have experience successfully treating anxiety, stress, depression, PTSD, COA and ACOA issues, among other concerns. Many clients in my current practice are dealing with various levels of stress and anxiety and I provide tools to aid in symptom reduction that can be utilized outside of the office setting. Each session will give you the opportunity to discuss recent events and how they are impacting your life. My sessions also include helping you set realistic and achievable goals. In this way,you can become better prepared to take ownership and pride in your competing thoughts and emotions.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in people's ability to develop their strengths and voice their truths. I believe everyone can heal and not be held captive to the past, or held back by thoughts and feelings. I believe in offering a safe space that can encourage all feelings and thoughts without judgement. Things that cause distress in one's life are markers for spaces that need healing. Regrets and guilt for past actions are opportunities to realign yourself with what you value. I believe that everyone is a beautiful soul who should be accepted, appreciated and celebrated for who they are and I create that space in my practice. I have a varied professional history and also many personal experiences that create a sense of "I get it." I believe in standing up against discrimination in any form, protecting children and those who are vulnerable, and empowering everyone. I love dogs and all animals and if you do a walk and talk with me, yes, I will save bugs & snakes off the paths (has happened).
