Services

Individual Sessions

Come in person or online for individualized counseling and guidance experience where we focus on what your top concerns are. Whether you are seeking treatment for a mental illness, support for a recent life change, or help in a specific area of your life, individual therapy is just between you and your therapist.

Career Coaching

I spent 11 years in Career Services coaching clients, writing resumes and cover letters, and connecting talent to companies. In one session, I can help you identify your strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots and within three sessions have you pursuing a path. Together we will work to break loose any blocks in your performance and optimize your outcomes whether you are just getting started with your career, making a transition, or feeling lost and disengaged. Finding a career you enjoy where you employ your unique strengths, can contribute to positive mental and physical health. With the emergence of AI and all of the unknowns in the modern career world, this is not an easy pursuit for anyone to do on their own.

Pain Management

Pain is a bio-psycho-social process. Therapy utilizing cognitive behavioral techniques, EMDR and/or somatic processing can help with the psychological, social and trauma aspects of pain. To better serve you, we also offer Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) to work on the biological/physical components of pain. Clients experience the greatest results when they integrate all of the therapies we offer as the signals of chronic pain are interwoven throughout the mind and body and can be resistant to change. I became passionate about this field after suffering from chronic pain myself for many years and finding no relief from traditional medical doctors and medicines. All of these therapies have been game changers for me, especially PEMF and additional bodywork modalities like deep massage, chiropractic care, and physical therapy.

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy

PEMF is like a Tesla Super Charging Station for your Body and Mind. The components that run your vessel (brain, cells & tissue) require rest and recharge at regular intervals to function at peak performance and simultaneously fend off disease. When was the last time you dropped into a parasympathetic state? If you are an active meditator, you know the answer to this question, but if meditation is not your jam my PEMF treatment can get you many of the same benefits. This completely safe technology reduces pain and inflammation, promotes better sleep, boosts circulation, and accelerates healing. If you're dealing with chronic pain, sleep issues, suffering from anxiety, or looking to enhance recovery PEMF is a tool that can help you on the journey. One executive reported after her first experience on the machine that she felt "more aware" and every client is visibly more relaxed after 1 session. The deep relaxation can be seen from the facial muscles. The body and mind are connected 100% of the time; we cannot be healthy physically if we are not well mentally and vice versa.

Executive Coaching

Long before Google Maps existed, fighter pilots relied on really good human navigators so they could push their mind, body, and jet to physical extremes and stay alive in the process. Executives are often pushing themselves and their teams to their outer limits and you need a navigator like me who can help you keep you from spinning out of control while you pursue growth and expansion. With a Maverick for a father who “flew for free, but got paid to do paperwork,” I learned early on about the power of passion in pushing one to the brink of physical and mental capacity and how intermittent reward systems drive humans to accomplish the mundane tasks required in any profession. With over a decade managing internal and external constituents, public speaking, teaching, coaching, and conducting data analysis, I have the right combination of human and analytical skills to be your partner in creating stability in the midst of chaos. Additionally, I am certified in the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and have run successful team building workshops for organizations. If you are struggling with managing a team, I can help you identify your relationship blind spots and develop team loyalty and camaraderie that will move your group to the next level. When employees feel safe with their leader, they are more creative and productive. Creating a felt-sense of “safety” is my expertise.
