About Aimee
My approach is holistic, and appreciative of the profound intertwinement between body, mind, and spirit. I emphasize sleep hygiene, nourishing nutrition, the vitality of physical activity, and the transformative power of mindfulness. It is an enduring privilege and calling to help others explore and gather the fragments of love, grief, anger, spirituality, loss, fear, anxiety, shame, responsibility, belonging, joy, trauma, breath, and so much more! There is beauty in the broken…the cracked open, and the mended.
Engaging in deliberate personal work with a guide who’s a good match for you will change your life. You are a human with human struggles, not a diagnosis. Be choosy when searching for a therapist.
Please note, that currently, I am not prescribing medication.

Using:
Individual therapy: I draw from a variety of influences and theoretical orientations…attachment theory, relational theory, psychodynamic theory, separation-individuation and more. Authors Francis Weller, Patricia DeYoung, and Brene Brown’s work with grief, sorrow, soul, trauma and shame remain close in mind as I listen, notice, question, feel, and advocate with you.
Group therapy is a powerful agent of change; a relational laboratory that offers opportunities to express and tolerate emotions, practice new skills, and become aware of how each of us relate to ourselves and others. My training in group is influenced by Yalom, modern analytic theory, object relations, systems theory and others.
A favorite quote:
Psychotherapy bids not only the transformation of the patient, but also the counter-application to the provider of that system which they prescribe in any given case. And in dealing with themselves, the provider must display as much relentlessness, consistency, and perseverance as in dealing with their patients. To work upon themselves with equal concentration is truly no small achievement.
– paraphrased from C.G. Jung
