O Lord my God, I cried out to You and You healed me.

-Psalm 30:2

 

My Approach

I will walk with you as you sort through your life challenges - past or present. To do this, I incorporate several approaches into our sessions.

First, I am a student of Hakomi Mindfulness Centered Somatic Therapy; this method allows me to combine the wisdom of mindfulness with the experience of the physical body (the ‘soma’) to discover core beliefs and patterns. I’ve found that Hakomi is transformative for myself and clients and helps to change neural pathways, resulting in new ways of thinking, being, and relating.

I also utilize a Gestalt approach to therapy; simply put, we allow the present moment to help integrate fragmented parts of oneself to become more whole. I also incorporate elements of deep breathing and Internal Family Systems into my sessions to help further connections between mind and body.

My methods include mindfulness, active listening, humor, writing, the use of art, and visualization. We also may use breath, movement, role-play, and meditation in our session. For those who are open to it, we can incorporate prayer as we seek healing from our Creator.

 

Hakomi Mindful Somatic Therapy

Hakomi is a form of mindfulness-centered therapy that can help you deepen your connection to yourself and to others by shifting old, outdated patterns and taking in new healing experiences.  

I believe Hakomi will help you become more fully present, curious, and satisfied in your life and relationships.

Together, we can build new skills and resilience to tackle feelings of anxiety, depression, or grief.  

Spiritual Values

I work from a deep and genuine faith in Jesus Christ and His power for healing and restoration.

If you long for guidance as you sort through the challenges of your life - past or present - I will walk alongside you, trusting that there is a unique path for your inner wisdom, strength and transformation.

I will help you reconnect with yourself, with others, and with God.

Support for Counselors

It is an honor to come alongside therapists and help you take a load off.

The work you do is so valuable and often saves lives. Just like your clients, you are created with a need to lean into safety and connection.

I would love to be a part of your support network.

 

I believe we are infused with the blueprints for healing. Beliefs, memories, and emotions are stored in the very cells and tissues of our body. As we look to our body for healing, we access deeper truths which provide a doorway for new and healing experiences.
