Services

New Streams Counseling, Trauma, Self-esteemLakes Basin @ Kristine Nystrom, 2012
I specialize in working with adults who struggle with past emotional pain and trauma which can result in relational problems, issues around body-image and self-esteem, emotional overwhelm, mood disorders, anxiety, personality disorders, and other life problems. 

I provide clients with compassionate, holistic psychotherapy.  My approach to therapy is collaborative, strengths-based, and non-judgemental.   Our work together depends on you, who you are, and what you want and need.  My approach to therapy incorporates mindfulness-based modalities, which means we hold a present focus to our treatment.  My primary modality is Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, although I am also heavily informed by, and incorporate interventions from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Radically Open DBT (RO-DBT) Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Humanistic Psychology, Attachment Theory, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Ecopsychology, among others.  For more about these modalities, along with other styles of mental health treatment, click here.


Most importantly, however, research has shown that regardless of the philosophy and clinical orientation of a therapist, what really matters for therapy to be effective is the relationship.  Because of this, I aim to create a safe place where you can:
  • Speak your mind and heart openly and freely.
  • Explore and get to know yourself - mind, body, and spirit - on a deeper level.
  • Discover your own inner wisdom.
  • Learn to set boundaries within relationships.
  • Gain resolution from your past hurts and traumas.
  • Find freedom from old survival strategies and resources.
