PSYCHOTHERAPY

The heart of my work is my combination of Contemplative Psychotherapy, Somatic Coaching & Parts Integration, which I combine in regularly scheduled Psychotherapy sessions. Weekly sessions focus on resourcing & balancing all parts of you, so you can experience feeling integrated & “whole” in your thoughts & feelings. Growth doesn’t just happen on it’s own. It takes time & thoughtful attention.

In addition, I offer my SIGNATURE SERIES, which is Psychotherapy with a LASER FOCUS ON MINDFUL TRANSITION.

SOMATIC ENTRY PATH

The Somatic Entry Path is SOMATIC COACHING for those who need support with over-active nervous systems (panic, high anxiety) & need help building a toolbox for their daily lives to help reduce hyper &/or hypo arousal. This 4-session set is not psychotherapy, but is entirely focused on somatic skills. Sessions can be renewed in rounds of 4 if desired or transitioned into Psychotherapy for clients in MO & CO.

The entry path is offered in-person in Missouri & online anywhere.

GRIEF COUNSELING

I offer Counseling focused on Grief & Loss with a specialty in helping clients with complicated grief. Loss is difficult enough to heal from, but complicating factors such as losing someone who you were mostly estranged from or grief that one has not been able to let go even though many years have passed & so on…

I also help clients with often disenfranchised or unacknowledged-by-others grief & how to memorialize & create movement for difficult emotions.

COGNITIVE PROCESSING THERAPY for PTSD

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is a structured 12-week set of sessions to process stuck beliefs related to a traumatic event. It is used for combat veterans & those who have experienced a physical assault.

I offer CPT in weekly sessions with homework in-between sessions that facilitate shifting thinking related to the event.

I offer this in-person in Columbia, MO & online in Missouri & Colorado.

INDIVIDUAL CONSULTATION

I offer Individual Consultations for HSP & non-HSP professionals, caregivers & healers who want support for themselves or need to know how to better support their clients.

Highly-Sensitive People are often drawn to healing & helping professions as well as the arts & have great skill to support others in their lives. I enjoy helping HSP professionals to set boundaries for themselves, achieve their dreams & build a toolkit for protecting their energy & time.

I offer this as 60 or 75 minute sessions in-person in Columbia, MO & online anywhere (intake is not required for consultations)

SAFE & SOUND PROTOCOL INTENSIVE

THE SAFE & SOUND PROTOCOL can be added to weekly Psychotherapy sessions or…can be experienced on it’s own in my SSP Intensive

Safe & Sound Protocol helps with many sensory arousal issues. I offer SSP to help clients who especially struggle to feel safe in their body & experience auditory over-arousal.

When the SSP is offered as a stand-alone intensive, there is an initial intake & preparation session followed by five 75 minute listening sessions + a follow-up session. There are 9.5 hours of total session time.

In this delivery, listening sessions can be scheduled as closely as 5 days in a row if schedules align.

Note: Offered in-person ONLY.

GROUPS & CLASSES

I offer Groups & Classes in-person & sometimes online. Highly-Sensitive People benefit greatly from being together in small groups & in environments that are curated for them & the things they enjoy. Introverted HSPs can especially benefit from socializing in situations where they can fully express their amazing HSP traits!

Groups are not psychotherapy or process therapy groups.
