My therapeutic work often relies upon breath attention, mindfulness skills, and somatic awareness practices.
After working in preventative mental health care as a mindfulness educator, I gravitated towards social work because of its emphasis on exploring ourselves in the context of the world around us. My orientation as a mental health counselor is rooted in curiosity about what it means to be human and to heal. It is also grounded in the belief that any work we do to understand ourselves more deeply can have a profound reparative impact that goes beyond the individual into the community at large. Counseling is an opportunity to connect with someone who can hold space to observe and learn from your personal experience.

You may be the one others depend on—the leader, the caretaker, the steady one, the one with vision. You carry a lot, and you carry it well. But inside, you may feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or frustrated that old patterns are still getting in the way. I help thoughtful, caring, and capable adults build lives that feel as strong and meaningful on the inside as they appear on the outside.

Hi. I am Grace. My efforts are consistently to help people grow and heal. Though I have many clinical interests and a lot of training, I tend to best support people who are moving through transitions. Affairs, job loss, pregnancy, divorce, marriage, illness, death, etc. I do this by being a gentle, present human while I engage others in unraveling old, futile patterns. I have a lot of energy for my work and have watched for 15 years how the right therapist at the right time can help a person or couple shift and change in enormous ways. Additionally, I am running groups for people in stepmother roles and for women with ADHD symptoms.

I specialize in helping men who struggle with isolation, feelings of anxiety and depression, blocks to intimacy, addiction to pornography, lack of male friends, a feeling of being lost or without a deep sense of purpose, or feeling numb and disconnected from life. As men, we are socialized to keep everything to ourselves, which makes it hard for us to admit when we're lonely, hurting, and in need of support. Many of us grew up with fathers that were absent, abusive, or detached emotionally, leaving us without a respectable model of masculinity and without much direction in life.

Many of us experience difficult times in our lives and taking the step to shift our thinking and gain skills to manage these challenges is a significant choice. I believe that when working together, a therapist and client can engage in a partnership where new skills are developed, distorted attitudes and beliefs are confronted and choices made to live a stronger, more intentional life are possible.

I have an understanding of psychological and somatic/body patterning to help with trauma from abuse, acute events, relationship/attachment struggles, grief/loss, chronic pain, self-esteem/love, life transitions, and faith based/spiritual needs.

I also draw upon my professional training as a 500 hour certified yoga teacher, 650 hour Ayurveda Health counselor and Reiki energy worker around somatic, diet, lifestyle, and energy patterns.

Listen...are you breathing just a little and calling it a life?" Mary Oliver asks this wise question. If it resonates for you, that makes so much sense. We are living in an complicated and unjust world, in a challenging time, and often have painful dynamics in our own lives, past and present. It is no wonder that we often feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, disconnection, hopelessness, or self-doubt. Counseling can help you reconnect with your presence, passion, and purpose. We all deserve a life filled with deep, nourishing breaths.

We try to take care of ourselves, connect with supportive people, make good decisions - but being alive can be complicated & overwhelming. When this happens it may bring up older unresolved issues, feeling depressed, anxious, or react in old patterns. We can slow things down and mindfully look at what's going on with curiosity and compassion, rather than judgment. What are your goals, what obstructs you enjoying your life more and getting satisfaction from your relationships?

There are many paths to healing. My role as a therapist is to determine the approach that will work best for each client and to create the space for healing to occur. I understand the importance of balancing and integrating the emotional self, the thinking self and the physical self and have tools to intervene in each of these dimensions. I believe that for many, a root cause of suffering lies within the context of intimate relationships and that healing primary relationships can create healing within the self.

Imagine a person feeling stuck, overwhelmed by past trauma, or facing recurring challenges in relationships or work.

Through a collaborative approach, we explore past influences, like trauma or learned behaviors, and develop coping strategies. By providing psycho-education and fostering self-awareness, clients can manage stress, emotions, and relationships more effectively.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
