How we work together

Our work together is grounded in seeing you as a whole-person, with multiple avenues toward wellness. We’ll consider the mind, body, spirit, emotions, and environment as interconnected facets of your life and pathways to growth.

My therapy approach is grounded in the belief that you are the expert of your own story. You know yourself best. You possess an innate understanding of yourself, and my role is to help you reconnect to your inner wisdom, listen to it deeply, and access resources for healing and growth.

Some optional offerings in our sessions might include Art Therapy or Eco Therapy

"I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way – things I had no words for."

- Georgia O'Keeffe

Art Therapy

Some of us resonate deeply with pictures, colors, sensations, movement, symbols and metaphors - and we may struggle to translate our inner experience into words. Art Therapy is an active process that provides another avenue for self-expression, allowing you to convey and explore your emotions, perspectives and experiences wordlessly. The art-making process itself may also inherently promote relaxation, less anxiety, and soothe an active nervous system. Any age can benefit and no art experience is necessary to participate in this type of therapy.

"Between every two pines is a doorway to a new world"

- John Muir

Ecotherapy

Ecotherapy (also referred to as nature-based therapy or ecological psychotherapy) recognizes that humans are a part of nature, and when we improve our connection with the natural world, we experience more health and balance. It is based upon the growing evidence that time spent in nature - even looking out a window or handling natural objects, is therapeutic. Our nervous system is biologically wired to relax easier when we are in proximity to nature. Nature provides grounding experiences, easy opportunities for mindfulness, simple wisdom, and for most people, a deep sense of calm connectedness.
