What to expect while participating in therapy.
Guiding You On the Path of Self-Healing
You may feel anxious about talking to someone about things that maybe you have never talked to anyone about. Often times the issue that brings you to counseling is more of the straw that broke the camels back and you find that there were other issues that you did not think were such a big deal.Â
Therapy is a way of beginning to develop a self awareness of your thoughts. We will explore the different parts of your self and understand why they developed. In this process you can learn how to quiet down those parts and identify how to heal them.
With You Every Step of the Way
Individual Therapy
In my therapy sessions, we’ll work to solve current problems and improve positive thinking and behavior. I will help you learn how to explore your feelings and teach you valuable tools to cope with life’s obstacles. I’m confident you’ll find my personalized Individual Therapy beneficial and inspirational. Get in touch to book an appointment.
Life Coaching
Are you in the process of wanting or needing to make some life changes. It can be difficult to figure out where to start. I use reflective listening as I teach you to learn about how your thoughts work, and also how they may be sabotaging your life. Together we will unpack the reasons why you do the things that you do, that no longer serve you and devise a plan to change those thoughts, behaviors and actions.
Mind Body and Spirit
I will work with you to help you work on learning how to listen to your body and release emotions that are tied up in your body. I will use energy work and shamanic techniques to help release negative energies as well as work on letting go of generational trauma.
