A message from Dana
Beginning therapy takes courage. It can be challenging to open up to another person, look at all the different parts of yourself, or sit with emotions that don’t always feel good…but in that process lies real transformation. Together, we’ll work through unhelpful thought patterns, reconnect you with your body’s innate wisdom, and cultivate your resilience.
My goal is to help you move toward greater integration. This is where your thoughts, emotions, and values align. I will help guide you to a place where you can explore and accept all parts of who you are. Healing happens not by becoming someone new, but by remembering and reclaiming your lived experience. I’m here to help you harness and achieve these goals.
Services Offered
I strive to create a trusting space completely free from judgment, so that you feel safe to explore all parts of yourself. Through mindfulness, somatic awareness, and experiential practices, we’ll uncover patterns that no longer serve you and cultivate new ways of responding to life’s challenges. My job is to support your insight.
For the overthinkers, this work can be an invitation to slow down and notice rather than fix, to listen rather than push. In our work together, you will discover how much inner healing intelligence you already possess by building awareness and self-compassion. This is especially present when working with Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy.
Our sessions will be grounded in a warm, empathic space, with deep inquiry into your lived experience, and creative approaches to healing. I encourage a more experiential approach alongside your typical talk therapy to get you closer to healing and lasting change that isn’t just understood but felt.
You deserve to live a life that is meaningful to you. Through new discoveries and healing painful wounds, together we will process, integrate, and get you closer to yourself.
