More Info About My Practice

Our primary focus is on ages 12-30, families and co-parents. The age range we work with reflects our approach grounded in the developing brain. Teens and young adults have particular struggles with decision making. Healing and growing with skills in connection facilitates preparation to meet your goals for living. We also provide thorough individual and group sessions for healing professionals addressing compassion fatigue and secondary trauma. Workshops for the general public are provided monthly as well.

My Role as a Therapist

For me, therapy is about two folks sitting together, sharing space or common experience and talking if it seems like the thing to do. Many approaches consider that the therapist should remain aloof, apart and witness rather than engage in the experience. Working with the herd demands that I be present as much as you. Same goes for the equine professional. Graduate degrees and licensure are important but the number one, evidenced-based practice for success in therapy is the relationship between you and the therapist. Doesn't matter the model. It's all about us being present for each other.

The Duration and Frequency of Therapy

I don't believe you need a set number of sessions. The process is in your hands to determine. Meeting more often, as in weekly, is usually a good idea in the early stages of our work together. I have a cash pay/out of network billing only practice. You can visit my website to see my thoughts on the benefits of this approach.
