A few openings for in person and outdoor/walk and talk sessions! If you’re navigating a major life transition, struggling with balance, anxiety, or feeling like you've lost your sense of self, you don't have to navigate it alone. Healing happens best when we feel connected, to ourselves and the world around us. I offer a person-centered, trauma-informed approach that gets you out of the office (if wanted and applicable) and into the fresh air. By blending evidence-based practices with mindfulness, somatics, creative expression, and nature based or walk-and-talk sessions, we tap into the restorative power of movement.
My goal is to help you live with greater clarity, purpose, and resilience. Whether we are exploring your identity or building skills to manage stress, we will work collaboratively to help you reconnect with your most authentic self.
If my approach sounds good to you, I’d love to connect. Contact me for a free, 15 minute consultation, and we can begin this journey together. See my website for more details and all current offerings, including a mindfulness retreat in October!
