_{“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.” – Carl Jung}

My background as a therapist is in Jungian Depth Psychology, Buddhist Psychology, and ACT Therapy. This means that I believe that there is more to you than just a collection of thoughts and behaviors to be modified. I see you as a whole human with a Soul. You are not broken. You are hurting, and I see your pain as an invitation to grow.

When the soul suffers, we know it. It expresses itself through pain, and through all of the things we do as humans to avoid pain. 

If you pause long enough to listen to the suffering rather than avoid it, it will point you towards what you need to grow. It will guide you to a deep sense of knowing, and this is what being connected to yourself feels like. Life gradually (or sometimes suddenly) becomes meaningful, and you begin to tap into your purpose on this planet. 

My job is to help you listen deeply, trust your own knowing, and act from your innate wisdom and values. What does this look like in session? It can looks like lots of things! I have a creative, intuitive approach, and use dream work, active imagination, art therapy, journaling, mindfulness, meditation, and somatic (body awareness) therapies. This is not your run-of-the-mill therapy! It’s deep and fun and meaningful, all at the same time.

Here are some things people have told me they want you to know about working with me:

“You are an open heart, open mind therapist. You have a fast, wicked sense of humor and meet people where they are. You have a vast tool box and range of experiences to facilitate going deeper. You are safe. Nothing surprises you. Your have good boundaries and honor the boundaries of others. You are honest, humble, compassionate and curious. You look for ways to personally learn and grow which serves as a wonderful example to people who’ve temporarily lost their way. You don’t have all the answers but you are willing to explore all the possibilities. You provide good tea, a quiet space to unravel and fall into place. You are a gifted teacher.” – Laura

“Oh where to start… I would say that your capacity to hold people is one of your best qualities, along with your open heart. You say yes and are so nonjudgmental. Everyone should know you’re an artist, a meditation teacher, and have done your work so you’re not afraid to walk people where they need to go. Grief needs a companion, and there’s no one better than you.” – Jessica

“I would tell them that you are a genuine and warm person who is committed to meeting clients where they are. That you are an artist and a yogi and explorer of new ideas and deepening of understanding. I would tell them you have a sense of humor along with extensive knowledge and training. And that you are a stellar human who I feel lucky to know and learn from.” – Lane
