COUNSELING
Counseling sessions will be centered around your personal healing journey. We will work together to find a path toward inner peace and clarity, even when exploring past experiences. The focus will be on your needs and priorities, meeting you where you are at in your journey. Therapy may include techniques to calm and heal your nervous system, as well as developing skills for a more integrated mind-body connection. We will also work on building coping strategies and resilience while tapping into your inner wisdom for solutions to current challenges.
When it comes to therapy, there are a variety of approaches available to you. We integrate somatic (body-based), cognitive behavioral, mindfulness-based, narrative, psychodynamic, EMDR, and other therapies. Your therapist will work with you to determine which approaches are best suited to your needs and preferences.
Lifestyle medicine and self-care practices may also be integrated into your therapy sessions, depending on what works best for you. Making lifestyle changes can be difficult, especially when we have busy schedules and competing priorities. It's common to struggle with motivation and momentum when trying to make changes. Remember, this is a process and progress, not perfection, is the ultimate goal. Your therapist can help you develop strategies to overcome these challenges and make lasting changes.

The truth is, no one teaches us how to do these things, and they don’t come naturally for most of us. That’s why coaching is so important. It can guide us along a path toward the life we want. We have found that traditional therapy can be helpful, but it doesn't always provide the tools we need to actually change our lives. Therapists often focus on helping us gain insight into the root causes of our problems, but that isn't always enough. We may still feel stuck, without the resources or skills to move forward. Understanding the cause of a problem is important, but it's not enough. We also need to know how to implement solutions and change our behavior to create the life we want.
Life can be overwhelming and it's not always easy to know what steps to take next. It's important to have someone to turn to for guidance and support when we need it the most. Whether it's setting achievable goals or overcoming obstacles, having practical support can make all the difference.
BLENDED APPROACH
We've found that a blended approach to therapy can be incredibly effective. By bringing coaching and counseling together, there's a greater range of tools and possibilities available to help people reach their goals and overcome obstacles. Together, we can work towards making positive changes in your life and achieving your goals. Let's take it one step at a time and focus on what's most important to you.
