“Faith is not for overcoming obstacles; it is for experiencing them—all the way through!”
– Richard Rohr
Welcome!
There are resources for healing that are bigger than we are. I offer a unique and powerful experience of counseling that is intuitive, spiritual, and deep. I help my clients to make contact with their own wisdom, and to build the skill of connecting with this innate, intuitive power to heal the wounds and transform the losses. You can release the patterns that no longer serve you, and engage with a higher sense of Self and purpose in your life! I use dreamwork, active imagination, journaling, art therapy, meditation, inner child work, and the body to help you go beyond the mind and tap into this spiritual wisdom.
A depth-oriented, spiritual approach acknowledges that there is more to you than your thoughts. I believe in the wisdom of the psyche, and trust that you are here in this life for a reason. The world needs your gifts now more than ever! A soulful, compassionate approach to counseling can open up a life of meaning and beauty out of the ashes of trauma, anxiety, addiction, grief, and pain. Being a human is not easy, but in making meaning out of the mess, life becomes something worth living.
You have support for your journey that is beyond your wildest dreams. I would love to be a witness and a guide to help you strengthen your connection with Self, the Universe, God, the Goddess, Spirit, or whatever word you use to describe the ineffable resource that exists within and around each of us.
This is not your run-of-the-mill counseling. This is soul work.
