Holistic Open minded Counseling  

My approach supports a fuller understanding of your thoughts, emotions, body responses, and inner patterns.At times this happens through conversation and reflection, and at other times through body-based awareness and experiential methods that help you connect more clearly with emotions, patterns, and inner responses. Depending on your needs, I may incorporate Brainspotting, visual imagery, and soon EMDR, along with parts-based exploration via archetypes, to support insight, healing, and meaningful change.

​

I work with many different emotional and life concerns, and I believe that how we approach therapy is just as important as what brings you in. Real change often starts with finding what feels right for you—what fits your personality, your life, and the way you naturally process things. We’re all unique, and it’s important to find a therapist and a way of working that truly supports you. My style blends mind, body, and spirit, using introspective holistic practices such as visualization, somatic mindfulness, inner child work as well as high level thinking oriented approaches as soultion foucsed and general parts analysis. Together, we’ll explore what feels most supportive for you. Spirit is explored here in an open-minded  way that respects your own beliefs, sense of purpose, and connection to something beyond the self. For some, this includes a universal force, higher self, mystical, nature or transcendent dimension of life shaped by personal meaning and inner experience.

​

Sometimes, we’ll focus on your strengths and what helps you move forward, almost like a coaching session. Other times, we might explore your inner world more deeply, looking at the different parts of you and how they show up in your life. It all depends on what you need right now, and where you are on your journey.

 

Building a kinder, greater, supportive relationship with yourself is at the heart of this work. Sometimes, we’ll look back at your past to see how old experiences or family patterns might still be affecting you today. This isn’t about blame—it’s about understanding, healing, and making space for honesty about what hurt. We all carry some pain from the past, but together we can use gentle practices like parts work and inner child exploration to help you feel safer and more free in your life now. The goal is always healing, not getting stuck in old stories or anger, but finding more space and choice in how you live today.

I’m a licensed therapist with 18 years of clinical experience and 50 years of life experience. I care deeply about creating a space which feels warm, welcoming, and truly human. My work is shaped by both my training and my journey of growth, self-reflection, and a commitment to living with greater awareness, compassion, and genuineness.
