Work with me for

  • Expanding beyond weekly talk therapy alone, I am now offering seasonal healing sessions—a structured, immersive approach that blends individual therapy, group work, body-based practices, and Ayurvedic wisdom.

    • 4 group therapy sessions (with 6-8 participants)

    • 12 individual sessions (talk therapy, bodywork, or private yoga)

    • PDF handouts on Ayurvedic principles and how to apply them in everyday life

    To create a more tailored experience, I am offering separate groups for women and couples. Whether you’re seeking personal healing or looking to strengthen your relationship, these sessions will provide tools and support specific to your journey.

  • Each month, your sessions will include:

    • Week 1: 50-minute one-on-one session to set your intention and goals for the season

    • Week 2: 2 hour group session, including movement (yoga or body-based practice), or embodied consent work (Wheel of Consent), reflection, and discussion

    • Week 3: 50-minute one-on-one session to explore your experience, insights, and shifts

    • Week 4: 90-minute bodywork session (Marma therapy, craniosacral unwinding, or tailored, wheel of consent practice)

    Between sessions, you will receive learning materials tailored to each season, designed to support your integration. These may include:

    ✨ Journaling prompts to deepen self-reflection

    ✨ Guided exercises for self-regulation and embodiment

    ✨ Ayurvedic practices for seasonal balance and well-being

    ✨ PDF handouts explaining Ayurvedic principles and how to apply them in daily life

    ✨ Additional resources to support your ongoing learning

  • FAQ – Why Seasonal Healing Instead of Ongoing Weekly Sessions?

    ❓ Why are these sessions structured seasonally instead of ongoing weekly therapy over the course of many years?

    Traditional weekly therapy can be an important tool for deep personal work, but a seasonal approach aligns with the natural cycles of change. According to Ayurveda, each season presents unique energetic qualities that influence our bodies, minds, and emotions. By working seasonally, we:

    • Honor natural cycles of change rather than seeing healing as linear.

    • Identify and break repetitive patterns that may otherwise feel surprising or unsettling.

    • Develop a deeper awareness of how we relate to ourselves, others, and the natural world.

    • Gain practical skills to navigate inevitable life transitions with more confidence and ease.

    This structured-yet-fluid approach allows you to see and experience real shifts over time, rather than feeling stuck in an open-ended therapeutic process.

    By setting an intention each season, we can:

    • Observe how and where we get stuck in patterns of thinking, relating, or responding to life’s challenges.

    • Develop skills to metabolize emotional experiences rather than feeling overwhelmed by them.

    • Use Ayurveda and other tools to support mental, emotional, and physical well-being in a way that evolves with you.

    • Prepare for inevitable changes that arise in relationships, work, health, and personal growth.

    Each seasonal cycle allows you to witness how your new skills are working and how they support you in navigating life’s natural ups and downs with more clarity and resilience.

    FAQ – Can I work with you for multiple seasons in a row?

    ❓ Is this a one-time experience, or can I continue for multiple seasons?

    Absolutely! By engaging in multiple seasonal sessions you increase the likelihood to deepen your awareness and healing over time.

    ❓ How do I decide between the group or private session?

    • The group format is ideal if you enjoy learning and healing in community, want shared accountability, and value group discussions.

    • The private format is best if you prefer a personalized approach, want deeper one-on-one support, or need more flexibility with scheduling.

    • Both formats incorporate a mix of talk therapy, body-based healing, and Ayurvedic practices to create a holistic experience and the experience is unique depending on whether you choose a group or private format.

    ❓ How do I decide between the group or private option?

    Group Seasonal Healing Sessions

    • Healing in Community – In a group setting, you have the opportunity to be witnessed by multiple people, each bringing their own insights and reflections. Sometimes, another person’s story can illuminate something within you that you hadn’t yet noticed.

    • The Power of Witnessing – Healing doesn’t happen in isolation. Being seen and heard by others can create a profound shift in self-understanding and provide a mirror for your own growth.

    • Learning from Shared Experiences – You’ll gain insight not just from your own process, but from the experiences of others in the group. Patterns that may feel deeply personal are often more universal than we think, and seeing them in others can help reduce shame and isolation.

    • Accountability & Support – The group dynamic offers encouragement and motivation, helping you stay committed to your healing practices.

    Private Intentional Healing Sessions

    • Deep Personalization – If you prefer a one-on-one focus, private sessions allow us to tailor every aspect of your journey, from talk therapy to yoga, bodywork, and breathwork.

    • Flexible & Intimate – We go at your own pace, diving deeply into personal challenges, relationships, or specific areas of focus.

    • Privacy & Depth – Some people prefer a private setting to work through more sensitive topics or emotions that feel difficult to explore in a group.

    Which Option is Right for You?

    If you value community, shared reflection, and witnessing in a structured and supportive space, the group option may be best for you. If you want personalized, one-on-one attention and a customized healing experience, private sessions may be the way to go. Both options are deeply transformative, and some clients choose to do both at different times in their journey.

    ❓ Can I start with private sessions and later join a group, or vice versa?

    Yes! You may choose to move between private and group sessions depending on your needs at different times.

    • If you start with private sessions, you may later feel ready to explore healing in community, where you can gain the added benefits of witnessing and shared reflection.

    • If you begin in a group, you might decide to deepen your work in private sessions to focus on more personal themes or integrate what you’ve learned in a way that’s specific to your journey.

    Both formats are designed to be complementary, and you are welcome to return for multiple seasons in whatever way feels most supportive for you.

    ❓ Do I need prior experience with yoga, Ayurveda, or mindfulness to join?

    No! These sessions are designed for all levels, whether you’re new to these practices or already familiar with them.

    ❓ Are these sessions considered therapy?

    Yes, these sessions include therapeutic elements, and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. However, they go beyond traditional talk therapy by incorporating body-based and mindfulness practices to support emotional healing holistically.

    ❓ Do you offer virtual sessions?

    • Private sessions can be done in person or online.

    • Group sessions are currently in-person only.

    ❓ Can I use my health insurance?

    I do not bill insurance directly, but I can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement if your plan covers out-of-network therapy sessions. Check with your provider to confirm your eligibility.

    ❓ How big are the groups?

    Groups are intimate and supportive, with 6-8 participants to allow for meaningful connection and personal attention.

    ❓ Are there different groups for individuals and couples?

    Yes! There are:

    • Groups for individuals focusing on emotional resilience and self-confidence.

    • Groups for couples focusing on intimacy, communication, and consent-based connection.

    ❓ What if I miss a session?

    If you miss a group session, you’ll receive a recap of key discussion points and relevant materials. Since group dynamics are part of the experience, makeups are not available.

    • Somatic and consent-based practices to improve connection with your body

    ❓ What kind of learning materials will I receive?

    All clients receive PDF handouts and guides on:

    • Ayurvedic principles and how to apply them in daily life.

    • Personalized self-care rituals based on your goals.

    • Mindfulness and emotional regulation techniques.

    • Consent and boundary-setting tools for individuals and couples.
