About Equipoise Integral Counseling LLC
My Approach
Heart and Soul
Body and Mind
My approach is holistic, recognizing how culture, identities, lifestyle, sleep, nutrition, movement, and hormonal cycles affect wellbeing or exacerbate symptoms. Our sessions focus on identifying values & strengths, engaging creativity, investigating your coping style, building resilience, and reducing stress thereby improving quality of life and enhancing management of chronic illnesses/disability.

Body and Mind
How you feel in your body affects how you are in the world. Loss, illness, micro-aggessions, trauma - before you know it you've lost your way and the path isn't clear. Counseling can help bridge the gaps between where you are and where you'd like to be. I am here to help you find your home in your self, your body, and in the world.
The mystic Ram Dass said, "We're all just walking each other home."
Let's walk together.

C.G. Jung wrote "The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are." To do that we must face our deepest fears and embrace our powers. Your treasure lies in the place you fear the most. I invite you to discover how the ways you were not held may be where you hold yourself back. Like the lotus we too have the ability to rise from the mud, bloom out of the darkness and radiate into the world
