Reconnect With What Matters Most
 Down to Earth +Authentic+Meaning Centered Psychotherapy​
 
 
 

I love working with women wanting to 
 invest in growth, healing and living with purpose. 

Therapy is a space for YOU
A dedicated time for curiousity about and trust in the inner process. A space meant to support you to nurture and heal your inner self, process and intigrate emotions,  change old patterns, and cultivate clarity, resilience, and alignment from the inside out.

Grounded meaning centered psychotherapy

Who I Work With:

Many of my clients are free/independent thinkers, holistic, health oriented and  wanting personal growth and healing transformation. 

Specialized Areas of Focus: 

  • Major life transitions and shifts

  • Boundaries, self-trust, and self-worth and emotional resilience

  • Repeated relational patterns

  • overwhelm, stress, uncertaintly 

  • High conflict divorce and seperation/ legal and relational stress and coparenting 

  • Anxiety, fear and stuckness 

  • Trauma  - I incorporate Brainspotting, a brain-body modality that helps process trauma, emotional stress, and experiences that may feel difficult to access through talk therapy alone.

ABOUT PORCUPINE GARDEN PSYCHOTHERAPY

I believe in real therapy for real people. My style is down to earth, sometimes direct, yet compassionate, with warmth, precision, and a sense of humor.

MY APPROACH

     

 I respect your autonomy, your intelligence, and your lived experience.  Our work together isn't about rushing towards a solution or following a rigid modality. We create space to explore patterns, emotions and experiences that may be shaping your life, sense of self, or ability to feel safe and grounded in the present.  

 

 Together we will build clarity, psychological strength and resilience that supports health, life and growth.
