Individual Therapy
|
We enter life as brand-new beings, open to the world in its entirety - but along the way our experiences, heartaches, and hardships can lead us far away from ourselves. In therapy, I help you build a connection to your inner self, integrate past wounds and hurts, and help you begin to envision the life you want.
I encourage building discernment and trust in your instincts, rooted in self-compassion and the unique values you hold. I approach therapy with curiosity, humor, compassion, and a deep respect for who you are and where you have been. Blending radical self-compassion with a belief in your ability to move toward change is central to my approach to therapy. |
Specialities
Women's Issues
Moving through this world as a feminine person brings its unique challenges and gifts. Many of us feel cut off from our instincts and intuition, and are longing for a deeper connection to the feminine in all its facets: from the brave, fierce, and discerning, all the way to the empathic, deep-feeling, and nurturing. In therapy I work to help you process, heal from, and find your own sense of meaning within the varied experiences that many women experience across the lifespan, and help you identify archetypes, stories, and narratives that can offer a framework for you to locate and stand within your power and intuition.
Grief & Loss
Grief can be an unwelcome initiation to the deeper levels of life, and can be present after many different losses. I work to support you in telling the story of your grief and loss, in exploring deeper themes around death, loss, and grieving, and in finding your way through the tangled undergrowth. Grief can unfold in a spiral - with each season of life, we can revisit our losses from a new vantage point, and in that way we stay connected to those we have lost. I work to help you claim your agency within your journey of grief, tend to the emotional, spiritual, and psychic wounding you may have sustained, and locate the rituals, frameworks, and stories that can offer you comfort and guidance as you move through this season of life.
Healing Family Wounds & Trauma
To be part of a family is to belong to the past, the present, and the future. Difficult dynamics often get handed down through the generations, until the time comes for someone to break a cycle or grow in a new direction. In therapy, we’ll explore, grieve, and work on healing the (often quite deep) wounds that can stem from dysfunctional family dynamics, and understand how attachment wounds might be showing up in your current relationships and impacting your emotional well-being. We’ll work to increase your sense of agency and empowerment surrounding your family dynamics, and move toward more fulfilling and harmonious relationships (both within your family and outside of it).
Other specialities include: Ecopsychology, building healthy spirituality, healing from family-of-origin wounding, and relationship trauma.
