Common Questions

What is psychotherapy all about?

Therapy is an opportunity to participate in a heartfelt and enriching interpersonal relationship that offers unconditional positive regard for you and the challenges you may be facing. The therapeutic process may include exploring the ways in which you think, feel and behave, and is intended to support you in better understanding who you are in the moment, who you were in the past and who you are becoming for your future. Psychotherapy is a tool to help you gain insight, increase self awareness, positively affect your ability to make clear conscious decisions, deepen interpersonal relationships, and increase a sense of well-being and fulfillment by connecting You to what you value, what has meaning for you, and what is important for your life.

We will strengthen your intuition by listening deep within and tuning in to your felt senses.

Increasing this body-felt inner knowingness, can increase self-trust and develop a richer, more dynamic and compassionate inner voice. This in turn, may help you access your inner compass and deep internal truth, so that making life decisions arise from states of ease and grace.

What will a session be like?

The intuitive therapeutic relationship is like no other. The environment is confidential and respectful, with each session focusing on your needs in the moment, your established goals and bridging the two aspects together through inquiry, intuitive exploration and coaching. With each session I offer a safe, nurturing, respectful and creative space. I meet and witness you where you are at in the moment, with non-judgmental listening, and when it is appropriate, humor and a light heart. I bring my intuitive inquiry to each session and offer meditations, guided visualizations, energy healing tools, and Brainspotting when desired. I encourage you to bring a journal to each session so you can take notes to review at a later time. A standard session is 45-55 minutes in length. I offer longer sessions upon request.

Do I really need to go to therapy?

I believe we may all benefit from a safe, confidential and supportive space where we feel heard and seen as we experience all the various emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual tribulations and successes during life's journey.

For Some, having a relationship outside of family, friends, or colleagues can help a person reconnect to their authentic Self without the possible fear of being critiqued or misunderstood, or potentially destabilizing meaningful relationships.

For Others, psychological challenges may seem too private or shameful to talk about with loved ones, yet may become worse if the burdens are held alone, so supportive therapy becomes a necessity not an option. What is most important is determining what is right for You and finding the best way for you to enhance feelings of self-love, self-determination, meaning and connection.
