Hello and welcome to Golden Explorations Counseling Services. I’m so glad you’re here. My mission is to support healing and personal growth through both nature-based adventure therapy and traditional counseling. Whether you feel most comfortable outdoors or prefer a more conventional setting, I offer services for adults, teens and couples who want to thrive in all areas of life.
If you are here seeking therapy services I am so happy you are taking the next step to healing and growth. I understand how hard it can be to ask for help and I’m here to make you feel seen, safe and supported. If outdoor therapy is more your style I offer treatment that integrates movement, nature, and meaningful experiences into the therapeutic process.
I am committed to providing a space that is accessible, affirming, and non judgmental for all of my clients. My approach is client- centered and collaborative: while I bring expertise in evidence-based practices, I acknowledge that you are the expert in your own life. Together, we can create a plan that aligns with your goals and makes you feel confident.

I am proud to offer a therapy space that allows you to show up fully and authentically in our work together. I often draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS) and schema-informed therapy, while remaining flexible and responsive to the approaches that resonate most with you. If you're ready to pursue healing, and meaningful change while staying true to who you are, I would be honored to work with you

I often use IFS, CBT, and Schema Therapy to help you understand thoughts, feelings, and patterns in your life or relationship. In our first session, we'll explore what brought you into therapy and your goals. Adventure or experiential therapy can be tailored for neurodivergent or disabled individuals and couples. Together, we'll find fun, meaningful ways to create real change.
