About

Trauma symptoms can take many forms: a low hum of depression or depression that keeps you in bed for days, crippling anxiety, self-doubt, constant negative thinking, substance abuse, dysfunctional family relationships... or just a feeling of "lost", "hopeless", "stuck" or "worthless". The truth is that we are subject to trauma just by experiencing life that we weren't prepared for, and it can look like a lot of things: a change of jobs...a death in the family...COVID, or serious abuse. If you're looking for an alternative, holistic approach to healing trauma, please reach out. I am trained in EMDR therapy and am certified in trauma-informed yoga. I specialize in PTSD/issues related to abuse and trauma, addiction treatment (chemical and behavioral), grief, mood disorders, LGBT, and women's issues, and take the approach of walk-and-talk counseling in the forest for somatic healing and offer telehealth counseling sessions. Through my study (both personal and academic) of releasing trauma through somatic healing, I've learned of the value of healing by experiencing the mindfulness of our bodies in nature. My approach is to help you work through the heaviness in your life by helping you process what comes up for you as we walk together through the forest.
