Most of my sessions are video visits. In person visits available - in a private corner of my back yard - if we both decide it appropriate.

Perhaps you simply want to learn some strategies that will help you manage and thrive in your mental health and overall well being.

It may be hard to reach out for help, whether it is for the first time - or any time. I know it because I have been there myself.

Nela Cavelis's Groups
Trauma Informed Yoga Group
Talk therapies can deliver limited results sometimes. There is a growing body of research and evidence of potentially powerful benefits of yoga practice in healing trauma symptoms, anxiety and depression. These practices can be utilized in individual sessions - however there is an added benefit of practicing in the community context of a small group. I am in the process of forming a small group, 3 - 4 clients, who may be open to trying this form of therapy proven to calm the nervous system, improve mood and sleep. The sessions will be held outdoors with plenty of space for distancing.
