HEALING WITH INTENTION

Intention

Setting an Intention is the first phase of our work together.  Intention integrates mind, body, and spirit.  Through heartful, compassionate listening and curiosity, we will begin your process to establish an intention that will anchor our work together and guide your journey.

Connection

Connection to our own hearts and truth is vital to our connection with others.  In our time together, we will discover with curiosity and compassion any survival strategies that aren’t serving you anymore and find new ways to nurture your relationship with yourself.  

Healing

Healing takes place when you connect to yourself in a compassionate way.  I will hold space for you and provide a container of safety for your healing journey. There is often a connection between what is happening in your life today and something in your past that needs reprocessing. During our time together, we can look at the links with curiosity and will utilize proven tools and modalities for healing.

Expansion

Expansion is the natural outcome of the healing process. When you release the survival strategies and weight of the past, your heart is open and free to experience the joy and lightness of this psychobiological shift.

My Methods

EMDR

Through EMDR therapy, patients are able to reprocess traumatic information until it is no longer psychologically disruptive. EMDR is a physiologically–based therapy that appears to be similar to what occurs naturally in REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep and seems to have a direct effect on the way our brain processes and stores information.

Mindfullness

Mindfulness can also describe a type of meditation practice that cultivates this awareness, a quality all human beings possess.

​

According to Mindful.org, “mindfulness is the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us.”

About me

​

A healing journey,

that led me to walk beside you on yours

​

My healing journey began at 15, when I lost my Dad suddenly.  This loss shaped me in profound ways, creating wounds I didn’t have the tools to understand or heal.  Over time, through grief and the unexpected transitions that reshaped my life, therapy became a place where I learned to navigate my emotions, release old survival strategies, and reconnect with the younger parts of myself who needed compassion and care.
 

 As I continued healing, from loss, from multiple miscarriages, from patterns that kept me small, I found myself drawn deeply into practices that helped me heal and grow: EMDR, IFS/parts work, inner child, NARM, mindfulness and nature-based healing. These modalities eventually became the foundation of my professional path.  Today I feel a sense of expansion, aliveness and SELF-led clarity I never could have imagined.  My healing has brought me home to myself. I live with a softer heart, a steadier nervous system, and a deep trust in the wisdom within.  This is the grounded, wholehearted place from which I now walk beside others on their own healing journey.  

 

This return to myself, this inner homecoming, is why I do this work.  I consider it an honor to walk alongside my clients on their healing journey.  
Outside of therapy, you will find me hiking, adventuring, tending to spaces of meaning and exploring landscapes. Nature has been one of my greatest teachers, and I bring that wisdom into the healing spaces I hold.

Testimonials

As I was driving home from a kid drop off, I could feel the mom worry build… I tried to turn it off- tried to brush it off - tried to believe “he’ll be fine”. But, the worry got the best of me and I made the call to Wendy. Wendy helped me figure out that the worry was less about my kid and more about me. What my kid wasn’t worried about, sad about, or anxious about was a worry for ME. I was projecting my past experiences on my kid.  This was an old wound that wasn’t healed in my childhood, one where I felt “left out” and I was reliving it in the present  through my child.  Wendy led me through naming this. She helped me revisit the past so I could talk through the pain that needed love. I was able to reconnect with my younger self and give her the love she needed as a child.  Now- I can better be there for my kids recognizing that mom worry was actually about me.
