Peace & Dove honors of the grief journey, with the "Dove" representing the Mourning Dove.
I believe that you can find peace and recover from hurt, grief, & trauma.
About
Survive ---> Thrive
You deserve to thrive, not just survive.
Your brain can heal, just like how muscles recover after a workout.
When collaborating with clients on their therapy goals, I see through lenses of trauma, relational connections to others, and how the brain and body work together in order to consider all factors and systems that make up a person and their experience.
I integrate evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches that make tangible, transformational change. I am trained in EMDR & am IFS Informed. I also integrate relational styles, self-compassion, mindfulness, & boundary skills. All of these approaches do not require you to re-tell the details of hurtful experiences.
My own grief and therapy journey, as well as eight years of allied work with trafficking survivors through non-profit service led me here.
Finding a therapist that is your right fit is so important. I believe in authentic, human interaction in therapy.
It is an honor to witness your journey as we work towards healing together.
*Note that I am currently in the process of paneling with the following insurance companies: Blue Cross of Idaho, Regence Blue Shield of Idaho, Aetna, SelectHealth, PacificSource, Mountain Health Co-oP and St. Luke's Health Plan. This process can take 4 months on average. Estimated time of being able to bill insurance is the end of December 2024.
In the meantime, I am happy to offer superbills for Out-of-Network benefits and discounted self-pay rates the day of service.
I offer limited spots with a discounted rate for human trafficking survivors and public servants (military, first responders, teachers, and non-profit workers).
Please schedule a free introductory call to see if we'd be a good fit.
