About

Imaginal psychology supports psyche, or soul awareness, in gaining an objective perspective of our experience by supporting the parts of us that might need some encouragement or compassion. Imaginal work integrates us toward acceptance, accountability, and positive relationships while recognising the impact of cultural shame and trauma. Expressive arts and Imaginal psychology are orientations that have guided me on my personal and professional therapeutic journey, and I'm privileged to offer these transformative modalities to support others. In our work together, my application of these modalities might look like drawing or collaging, engaging in movement or dance, expressing through the inner parts of yourself, or role playing; but most often this will look simply like noticing sensations in your body as we examine and talk about present emotions, thoughts, and behaviors present in your life. I will model and encourage you to identify and explore subjective parts of yourself with compassion and curiosity. I will share my observations and reflections with you when relevant and appropriate, but primarily trust and respect your preferences and boundaries as a person-centered and trauma informed practice. All my sessions are currently being held for adults who reside in Vermont over telehealth. My therapeutic approach is well suited for motivated individuals in Vermont who are hoping to process, develop coping skills, self compassion, and personal growth. I am not best suited for those seeking to primarily focus on manifestations of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and recommend seeking out a therapist who is trained in Exposure Response Therapy (ERT) to those who desire support in this area. Please contact me if you are interested in working together and let me know your insurance provider, preferred time to meet, or any questions you may have. If you're comfortable, please also describe in a general way what you are hoping to receive support for. I prefer to receive messages through this website, and via email when possible. My typical office hours of availability are: Tuesday-Thursday 10am to 5:30pm Friday 10am-4pm
