About me:
My relationship with Nature is at the core of who I am. I enjoy spending my time snowboarding, paddle boarding, hiking, practicing yoga, and sitting around a fire. These experiences not only shape my recreational pursuits but also serve as a source of grounding and mindfulness in my daily life.
Treatment Orientation & Philosophy:
I believe that change is a gradual and individualized process. Your autonomy in leading sessions is valued, allowing for a personalized and self-directed exploration. My training relies heavily on systems work grounded in feminist principles and perspectives. I acknowledge the impact that power, privilege, and oppression may have on the individual’s mental health.
I believe that therapy facilitates a transformative process, and our sessions will aim to facilitate your journey toward wholeness and self-discovery. The pace of our work will be guided by your comfort and readiness. I believe that nature provides a unique perspective to the therapy process and that nature is always a part of us. Exploring metaphors within nature may enhance our discussions and contribute to the holistic nature of your therapeutic journey.
