My Approach to Helping

An integrative perspective, utilizing a blend of both eastern and western philosophy/modalities, guides my work. Using art as therapy with mindfulness and body-centered practices allows clients to engage on all levels, body, mind and spirit. Reiki and Equine Assisted Psychotherapy can also serve a client well depending on their needs.

My approach is warm, gentle, and compassionate, as well as informative, direct, and practical. I work with each person as an individual creating a therapeutic environment that is unique to that person's needs. My clients report that our work together allows them to connect more deeply to themselves and others, to communicate their thoughts and feelings more effectively and clearly with others, to find more stability and joy in their lives through the reduction of negative effects, such as acute and chronic anxiety and depression, and to experience greater self-worth and self-confidence.

Sessions are a full hour and cost $100.00. I do not accept insurance, but some insurance companies may reimburse you when you file a claim.
