Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

Using an Integral approach to counseling: mind, body, spirit, each person is met where they are and supported to explore and clarify whatever concerns them. The therapeutic relationship is one that creates safety for a person to explore, increase awarenss, heal and change.

Generally the goal we all seek is clarification of consciousness , healing of conscious and unconscious wounds, increase alignment of mind and heart, increased power of choice and ability to follow through with action steps of choice. WE can then, practice thinking more intentionally and strenthen the ability to witness, navigating life/ internal and external realities with more ease.
Coaching is more goal directed and action focused.
Couples work will focus on learning to listen, improve communication and understanding. Therefore increasing connection and safety for love to prevail as the quiding force.
