My Background and Approach

Elemental Counseling incorporates my clinical experiences in Community Mental Health, as well as my own growth and insights from Women's groups, Dream analysis, book discussion groups and personal practice. I am attuned to people who have a Nature Based or interfaith spiritual practice, artists, and others who lead unconventional lifestyles. When I completed training at the Trauma Institute and Jennifer Sweeton's Trauma Toolbox, I learned how to best support each person's unique self regulation needs. I also integrate Evidence Based Practices of Multicultural Counseling, Feminist and Systems Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness and Psychiatric Rehabilitation, Lindsay Gibson's EIP work, Depth/ Jungian Psychology and IFS. With my multidimensional approach, therapy is relevant and specific to each person's needs.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I facilitate meaning and positive transformation. COMING JANUARY 2024: WHICHCRAFT FOR US ALL, a safe place for Nature Based Spirituality. Contact me for details! With gratitude for sharing each person's unique process, I support connectedness and self-community advocacy. I dedicated over 20 years partnering with adults 18-80 with mental /physical health conditions, substance use disorders, seekers of refuge, SGAs, BIPOC, AAPI, Latinx, Indigenous people, LGBTQ+, kink/ poly, sex positive, and artists/musicians. I love working with people who feel different! I have searched and reunited with birth family, and volunteered with a search/ reunion peer support group, and embrace the many and varied forms of family. Processing with my spiritual mentor and peers in Women's groups, I participated in individual and group healing. My first career was in Costuming. This was the place I discovered beauty in every body, color, gender identity, lifestyle, cultural and social background.
