Peace by Piece Counseling
My Approach
My approach is rooted in bringing all parts of an individual/s into this space. I look at therapy as an inclusion of a person's foundation- their culture, lived experiences, pain, joys, relationships, environment, mental, physical, spiritual and financial belief systems and how that plays a role in their life today.
I incorporate different methods from a variety of evidence based practices while also including what culturally and spiritually are necessary for clients to move through this journey. we can work together to determine best practices moving forward.
I am open to this space being used as a place where we navigate hardships, sit in discomfort, unlearn what no longer sustains you, and learn new ways that create better relationships and quality of life with self,and others.
Holistic Approach
Together we can look at your mental, physical, emotional, social and spiritual well -being and create a plan that helps bring more balance and harmony to your life.
Client innerstanding
I trust that within you lies all the answers, best decisions and intuition to direct you toward your best self. You are the expert of your life and I am the supporter. My goal is to act as a fellow traveler on your journey and remind you to listen to self, allow you to learn self and gain that trust, while removing distractions of the world and helping guide you in directions should you lose sight, or feel lost along the way. Your part in this journey is to show up as honestly as possible, open-minded and willing to allow yourself space to grow.
Trauma Centered
Because of my understanding in how trauma shapes us, creates narratives and beliefs in our lives that are untrue about ourselves and others and affects the ways in which we navigate the world. I hold space to name this pain, be seen fully, heard, held and validated while working through the traumatic parts of a story to help remove what was placed on you that isn't yours to carry.
