There are so many people who believe they are defective or fear rejection if they talk about their struggles. One of the first things I ask people about is what they need to feel safe. Vulnerability is not a skill we've all been taught, but a huge ingredient in the healing process! I aim to work at a gentle/appropriate pace and tailor therapy to YOU. On top of that, I will regularly check-in on how you perceive your progress/time in therapy. If you are someone who is curious and eager (or simply just fed up with where you're at!), feel free to reach out. All are welcome in my space no matter their stories.
I enjoy working with people who have mood disorders, trauma, addiction and relationship issues. Many parts of life may need attention, but I start by first working toward stability. Eventually, I introduce processing that hard stuff. We may expose roots, unpack memories, and ideally create new meaning in hopes of feeling more freedom/health.
Finding a good-fit therapist can be tough! It's always worth a try to meet with someone who seems like a potential fit and feel it out for a few sessions. I hope that anyone who walks through my door leaves feeling heard, seen, and like all hope is not lost. My faith as a Christian deeply informs my desire to walk with people through all of life's seasons.

My therapeutic style comes from a place of belief that every piece of one's identity (faith, race/ethnicity, gender) informs relationships, experiences, and mental health. I actively use Emotion Focused Ind. Therapy to zoom in on attachment issues, and help clients understand their deepest emotions.

We work together to first build you support system, skills to cope, and then jump into some story work. We will make connections to significant events, childhood trauma, and chip away at whatever emotions, stuck thinking patterns, addictions, or negative beliefs are holding you back. Therapy is a process!

While I like to use a mix of methods, I will typically meet you where you are. Do you need practical skills or are you ready to dive deep into the past? Are you struggling to function? Are you the type to read/work outside of the therapy session? Is there a recent traumatic event, grief, or breakup that needs immediate care? It all just depends on what you need and we will tailor it accordingly.

Reclaim: Healing your relationship with your body

Hosted by
Shelby Oluwalana

Women's bodies can do and be so much! God intended for us to enjoy our bodies as He created them: GOOD! However, sometimes society, our experiences, or our inner-critics lead us to some complicated and even distorted body image and eating/exercise habits. In this group, adult women will have the chance to explore their relationships with their bodies, food, and movement. We will reflect on how our current behaviors came to be, develop skills for a healthier relationship with our bodies, and process our learning, thoughts, and emotions in community. Website or call for more information!
