Inner Path Counseling is a compassionate space to explore parts of yourself including your emotions, beliefs and behaviors so you can live a life true to yourself. Meaningful relationships, life purpose, peace and confidence from the inside out are worth having in this one wild and beautiful life. With my trauma-informed skill-set and your inner healing wisdom, together we can heal trauma, support grief & loss, reflect on life transitions, and increase self awareness and insight into patterns you’re ready to change. I am a Level 3 Certified Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist and a Coherence Therapy practitioner.
In addition to trauma, grief & loss, transitions and relationships, I assist those using psychedelic medicines for healing to process altered consciousness and integrate new insights. Non-violent communication and Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFS couples therapy) informs my work with those seeking to resolve interpersonal conflict & do relationship repair.
Trauma is the disconnection from your true, genuine and authentic Self. Healing is the reconnection. My trauma-informed therapy expertise includes Level 3 certification in Internal Family Systems, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Coherence Therapy and somatic therapy interventions.
