Welcome to Hawthorn Trail Therapy; I'm so glad you're here. Human-ing is hard. As relational beings our hearts are broken by grief, loss, and harm, and we can become disconnected from ourselves, others, and the world. The Hawthorn tree symbolizes courage and resilience, and is known for healing of the heart. It takes courage to seek therapy; it's a step on the path of compassionate awareness toward healing and home. For me, this path is one of developing safety and flexibility in the nervous system, moving out of bracing or collapse toward openness and connection, and finding new ways of being that lead to freedom and flourishing.
I primarily work from a relational psychodynamic perspective with a focus on interpersonal neurobiology and trauma-informed narrative & somatic therapy, as well as Equine Assisted Psychotherapy. Horses are keenly attuned, utterly congruent, and live in the here & now; they have a way of telling the truth that invites us to profound awareness and presence.
I offer talk & nature therapy in North Bend and Equine Assisted Psychotherapy at beautiful barns in Bridle Trails (Kirkland) and Monroe. I work with individual clients covering a broad range of issues including anxiety, depression, religious trauma, and chronic illness. I am affirming of people from all traditions, faiths, and sexual orientations.

My approach is holistic, always considering mind, body, spirit, and soul, working both top-down and bottom-up. I work with each client according to their personal culture and story, believing each of us make sense in our own particular contexts, and have our own solutions within. As your nervous system settles into safety, you begin to experience life as you were meant to.
