Connecting with Your Authentic Self for Emotional Well-Being
Welcome to My Online Counseling Practice
Working with deeper emotional patterns, intuition, and inner wisdom
A Way of Working That Goes Beyond Words
If you are reflective, insight-oriented, and interested in therapy that engages both the mind and the body, you may feel at home here. Rather than focusing solely on conversation, we work with emotional patterns, protective parts, nervous system responses, and brain-based methods to support deeper integration. This is a space for intentional self-exploration—grounded, experiential, and respectful of your inner wisdom.
Alongside reflection and insight, this work may include brainspotting (brain-based healing), parts-based self-exploration, guided meditation or hypnotherapy, expressive arts, and therapeutic writing. These approaches support healing, clarity, and self-understanding by engaging more than the thinking mind alone.
Spirituality and intuition are welcome here in a non-religious, universal way—guided by what feels meaningful and true to you. This work honors the connection between mind, body, and spirit, creating space for greater awareness, compassion, and self-trust. Growth becomes something you experience and embody, not just something you think about.
Areas of Focus
I commonly support individuals with:
-
Stress and emotional overload
-
Professional self-growth/burnout prevention
-
Anxiety and ongoing inner tension
-
Relationship patterns and family of origin concerns
-
Deeper self-understanding and personal development
-
Self-criticism, perfectionism, or people-pleasing
-
Grief and healing
-
Integrating spirituality in an inclusive way for those exploring meaning, inner wisdom, and a deeper understanding of self
This work supports both emotional stability and a more compassionate, informed relationship with yourself.
Learning and Reflection, Held Together
You may carry ongoing tension or anxiety; in quiet moments, an inner voice can grow louder—perhaps pushing you to perform, avoid mistakes, or hold it all together—often leaving you with guilt or self-doubt that shapes how you relate to yourself. You may appear high-functioning on the outside while feeling misaligned on the inside; you want your authentic self to shine. The relationships around you also influence your mental health. You may be looking for ways to strengthen your self-confidence and deepen your inner resilience.
Therapy offers space to slow down and understand what is happening beneath those reactions, moving at a meaningful pace that allows you to be fully yourself—even the parts that feel imperfect or afraid to be vulnerable. This is a space without judgment, offering room for growth and a renewed connection to yourself.
This Work Often Resonates With People Who…
You probably already see yourself in more than one of these:
-
You’re sensitive and intuitive, and at the same time, you are easily overwhelmed.
-
You look calm on the outside but feel like you’re holding a lot inside.
-
Reinventing oneself as they enter menopause and looking for midlife counseling
-
You’re curious about meaning, purpose, or inner guidance.
-
You express yourself creatively—through writing, art, or reflection.
-
You want to explore recurring patterns without judgment.
-
This isn’t about “fixing” parts of you—as a perfectionist part, inner critic, and wounded parts—it’s about changing the relationship you have with yourself
-
You may want to explore your relationships with other people in your life
Ways We Work Together
Rather than relying on a single approach, sessions draw on several experiential and reflective practices, based on what feels most supportive for you.
-
Guided inner work/meditation/hypnotherapy: helping you connect and engage your unconscious intelligence.
-
Brainspotting for accessing experiences and emotions that sit below conscious thought
-
Parts awareness helps you identify protective patterns (inner critic/perfectionist parts) and vulnerable feelings within you, providing insight, integration, and more intentional choices while fostering a softer relationship with yourself.
-
Creative and expressive practices, such as the therapeutic journaling, imagery, and SoulCollage®, offer ways to express and understand experiences that are difficult to put into words
-
Mind–body awareness: Learning to listen to the body’s signals as a source of clarity, regulation, and balance.
These approaches are woven together thoughtfully, always guided by what feels most helpful and relevant in the moment.

Now Offering Brainspotting
Brainspotting.
Brainspotting is a focused, body-based therapy that works with the natural connection between where you look, how your nervous system responds, and what your body holds. By using specific eye positions—called brainspots—along with mindful awareness and gentle bilateral sound, this approach helps access areas of the brain where emotional and physical stress have been stored.
In a session, we slow things down and let your system lead. Together, we notice subtle cues in your body and nervous system, allowing experiences that feel stuck or unresolved to move and reorganize at a pace that feels right for you.
Brainspotting may involve:
-
Scanning your visual field to locate a meaningful eye position connected to your experience
-
Holding that eye position while staying present with body sensations
-
Noticing emotions, memories, images, or shifts in perspective as they arise
-
Allowing the nervous system to process and settle in its own way
Sessions are tailored to each person. There are different ways Brainspotting can be used, depending on what you’re working with and how your system responds. The focus stays on creating safety, clarity, and space for your mind and body to do what they naturally know how to do—move toward balance and relief.
