I support hope and self-determination as my clients apply their abilities in pursuit of their therapeutic goals and overall well being. Therapy is a collaborative process in which I use a compassionate person-centered approach and evidence-based methods to address each individual's needs. I have a foundation of experience providing therapy for clients with a wide variety of mental health needs, and I have spent several years specializing in anxiety, trauma and support for survivors of abuse in their recovery.
Where applicable, I interweave psychotherapy with Expressive Arts Therapy. The name of my practice, The Spotted Hawk Counseling, PLLC, refers to Walt Whitman's poem "Song of Myself" in which he related to the "untranslatable" in a hawk's cry. Creative self-expression can give rise to insight and provide a path to healing and greater self-acceptance.
Whether you are here for talk therapy or experiential creative work, I provide a safe space for you to confront life's challenges and receive therapeutic support.
