Individual Therapy

A Holistic Approach:

Holistic therapy is a form of integrative therapy that takes into account the entire person – mind, body, and spirit. It focuses on the interconnectedness of all aspects of a person's life and aims to address the root causes of mental and emotional distress.

Through a combination of traditional talk therapy, mindfulness practices, and holistic healing techniques, individuals are guided towards a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences.

Individual Sessions

What Working With Me Is Like

Therapy with me is active, honest, and collaborative—I help us move beyond surface-level conversation into something that actually shifts.

I encourage clients to come into sessions with a sense of what they want to explore, even if it’s unclear or evolving. At the end of sessions, I often offer simple reflections, resources or skill-building practices to support deeper awareness (you might think of it as therapy homework).

In session, we might explore relationship dynamics, recurring emotional patterns, grief, trauma, addiction, or identity questions. We may look at moments where you feel stuck, trace how past experiences shape your present, or work with dreams, intuitions, and symbolic images that reveal deeper layers of your inner life. Sometimes the focus is practical—boundaries, communication, emotional regulation. Other times, it’s about meaning, desire, and change.

We may also pay attention to the body and nervous system, noticing sensations and emotional shifts as part of the work. Spiritual or mystical experiences are welcome here, not as abstractions, but as meaningful parts of your experience.

My style is direct and grounded. If something feels important, I’ll name it. If a pattern keeps repeating, we’ll look at it together rather than circling it endlessly. I'm also not afraid to gently challenge clients or bring awareness to uncomfortable parts or truths. This can feel a little tough at times, but it’s also where real change begins.

If you’re looking for a therapist who will simply validate everything you say or is highly traditional in approach, we may not be the right fit. But if you’re curious, self-reflective, and willing to engage actively in the process, our work can be deep, grounded, and transformative.

About Relationship Therapy

Holistic therapy practiced in conjunction with the Gottman Method addresses importance of understanding each individuals unique experiences, beliefs, and values, and how these factors impact their relationship dynamics.

Clients are guided to develop a deeper understanding of each other, improve communication and conflict resolution skills, and build a stronger emotional connection.

Couples sessions include :

Gottman Method

The Gottman Method is a form of relational therapy that focuses on helping each person learn new behaviors and communication skills to improve their relationship. Through this method, clients learn to identify and change negative patterns in their interactions, develop greater intimacy and connection, and enhance their ability to manage conflicts effectively.

The therapy sessions often involve learning and practicing specific techniques, such as active listening, expressing emotions in a healthy way, and finding common ground during disagreements.

The ultimate goal of the Gottman Method is to help clients build stronger, more fulfilling relationships based on trust, empathy, and understanding.

This approach is rooted in extensive research and has been shown to be effective in helping couples address a wide range of issues and improve their overall satisfaction with their relationships. It's a useful model for resolving familial issues as well.

Mindfulness Based Therapy for Couples

Mindfulness counseling for couples uses present-moment awareness to improve communication, manage emotions, and deepen connection by reducing reactivity and fostering empathy, leading to more effective conflict resolution and increased intimacy.

Discernment Counseling (optional and context dependent)

This type of counseling assists couples who are struggling to figure out whether to work things out or separate in finding clarity. Sessions oscillate between couples and individual sessions with the therapist, and focus on deeper exploration and insight as to why one might be leaning out, leaning in, or feeling ambivalent.

Therapy can also support co-parenting, blended family challenges, intergenerational caregiving, or navigating differences in values and lifestyles. Together, we work to foster understanding, restore connection, and create healthier family relationships.
