People find their way to counseling for a lot of different reasons. For some folks, a recent event might have changed the way life was going, and some support in navigating a new normal can help. For some, counseling can be a place to explore a specific area or goal in a life that overall feels like it’s working just fine. For others, life may have felt unmanageable, disconnected, or out of control for a long time. Therapy can be a place to witness and hold and heal pain from the past and present, a place to start to imagine and create a different kind of future. And sometimes it can be a mix of these. I welcome working with people coming from all of these paths. It’s a vulnerable and brave thing to want something different, and to reach out for help. I honor that.

For adults and adolescents, your path in counseling is something we will create together. Our work in any given session can look a lot of different ways. We can sit on the couch (or floor) and talk. We might choose physical movement or another creative outlet. We might practice being aware of what is happening in the body, in thoughts, and in emotions. We can bring two or more of these together if needed.

For children, counseling with me is a process that unfolds largely through play, with support and coaching for caregivers as well.

I see people ages 5 and up individually for counseling.  From time to time, therapy groups or workshops may be offered.

The counseling process with Moving Energy Wellness begins with a free 15-30 minute virtual or in person consultation. This is a chance for you to ask any questions you might have and see if I feel like a good fit for you.
