Trailhead Holistic Counseling
You weren’t meant to live in survival mode.
Holistic therapy for anxious minds, tense bodies, and tired hearts — through somatic healing, mindfulness, and nature-based practices.
…with nearly two decades of experience supporting teens, young adults, and families.
Real healing for real people — beyond mental health diagnoses, hustle culture, and self-judgment.
Find Your Balance
This isn’t about forcing a positive mindset.
It’s about listening to your body’s truth — the aches, the tension, the quiet knowing underneath it all.
If talk therapy left you in your head and self-help left you spinning, this is the ground beneath both.
Here, your emotions, beliefs, and body are all part of the healing.
We work together through somatic therapy, mindfulness, and nature-based practices — so you can soften, release, and rebuild from the inside out.
Is This You?
💭 Teens and young adults feeling anxious, detached, afloat, or disconnected from who they’re becoming.
👨👩👦 Families preparing for transitions—like a teen returning from treatment, leaving for college, or moving toward independence—and needing support to strengthen connection along the way.
🌿 Insightful, self-aware souls who’ve done the work—but still feel stuck in emotional loops the mind alone can’t untangle.
🌀 In the midst of a major life transition—identity, career, relationship—and wanting clarity, not just coping skills.
🌱 Deep feelers drawn to somatic healing and body-centered therapy—not surface-level solutions.
🔥 Burned-out helpers, healers, and therapists carrying more than they show—and needing a space of their own.
👟 Men exploring emotional healing, growth, and vulnerability outside outdated definitions of masculinity.
🚫 Folks hurt by rigid, pathologizing therapy—and ready for a more holistic approach.
🌲 Earth-connected humans who feel most alive and grounded in the natural world.
If any of this resonates, I’d love to connect. Let’s find a rhythm that supports your healing.
Outcomes You Can Experience
Restoring Emotional Safety After Trauma
Trauma isn’t always one big event— sometimes it’s being misunderstood, silenced, or praised for performing at the expense of your truth.
Through somatic therapy, mindfulness, and the Hakomi Method, we work gently with what your body is still holding—at a pace that honors your nervous system. Together, we build space for safety, self-trust, and lasting integration.
From Anxious Overwhelm to Calm & Clarity
When your nervous system is stuck in overdrive—or your energy feels drained to the core—healing begins by coming home to your body.
Together, we use somatic tools, breathwork, and rhythm to gently unwind anxiety, burnout, and depression from the inside out.
Tools for the Transition to Adulthood
Today’s youth live in a storm of emotional noise—identity pressure, self-doubt, social media, and a constant hum of “not enough.” This is a space to slow down. To breathe. To make sense of it all.
I work with teens and young adults who crave depth—not just advice—and are seeking someone who truly gets it. Together, we build tools for emotional resilience, self-understanding, and growth that lasts.
Emotional Healing for Men Who Want More
You don’t have to “man up” here. I work with men who carry deep emotional weight beneath masks of capability, perfectionism, or quiet endurance. Together, we unpack identity, masculinity, and the parts of yourself long kept hidden—not to fix, but to get real.
This is a space for truth without shame. For growth beyond the script.
Parent & Post-Treatment Support
Parenting through transitions can be both hopeful and overwhelming. Whether your teen is returning home after residential or wilderness treatment—or you’re simply seeking steadier ground in family life—the shifts in routine, expectations, and relationships can feel a lot to hold.
I help parents prepare for and navigate these changes, whether during the treatment process or in everyday family life. Together, we focus on communication, rebuilding trust, and creating structures that sustain long-term growth and connection.
My Approach
Move, Feel, and Heal—Not Just Think Your Way Through It
I combine trauma-informed therapy, somatic movement (Hakomi-inspired), nature-based practices, and mindfulness to help you shift from:
Hypervigilance → grounded presence
Emotional shutdown → embodied expression
Overthinking → intuitive knowing
Self-doubt → trust in your inner rhythm
This isn’t about fixing you — it’s about reconnecting to what’s already wise within.
You’ll Learn To Reclaim…
A deeper connection to your body’s truth
The ability to release survival patterns like people-pleasing or emotional numbing
A renewed sense of voice, boundaries, and pace
A healing process rooted in movement, not just talk
You’re not broken. You’re just ready for a different kind of support.
Let’s start there.
