About working together

Hi, I’m so glad you’ve found your way here.

I offer attachment-based, experiential therapy that supports healing, integration, & deeper connection in your relationships—starting with the one you have with yourself & source.

This is a body-centered, holistic approach that’s different from traditional talk therapies like CBT or DBT. Instead of focusing primarily on thoughts, we work from the bottom up—through the body, emotions, & nervous system—going directly to the root of what's affecting you.

In our sessions, your physical body, nervous system, energy centers, & lived experience are all honored. You won't be pathologized here—we’ll work with compassion, presence, & curiosity so you can come home to rememberance & rituals of sovereignty.

Our work is always guided by what matters most to you. Together, we gently explore & dissolve patterns that may have helped you survive at one time but now feel limiting or painful. Many of the people I work with have experienced emotional neglect or abuse in early life, & are now ready to reclaim their power.

You might be navigating things like:

  • Chronic pain or body tension

  • Anxiety, depression, or identity confusion

  • Challenges in relationships or intimacy

  • Coping patterns or substance use that is difficult to make sense of

If you're ready to meet yourself, in a safe & supportive space, I’m here to walk alongside you. My mission is to offer a deeply human approach to therapy—one rooted in warmth, inclusivity, safety, & connection.

About Me

Hi, I’m Andrea—a mid life therapist walking the path of healing right alongside you. Inspired by the wisdom that comes with midlife, I’m dedicated to offering therapy that’s deep, meaningful, & grounded in human connection.

Outside the therapy space, I’m most at home with animals & the natural world. I spend my time learning from plants, tending to my garden, & diving into the art of herbalism—that’s my happy place.

I identify as neurodivergent & highly sensitive, & I bring that sensitivity into our work in a way that honors the language of the body, energy, & emotion. I also believe in the healing power of laughter—when the moment is right, a little therapeutic humor can go a long way. After all, joy is medicine too.

What Our Sessions Might Include

Each session is guided by your needs, your pace, & your inner wisdom. Here are some of the practices & approaches we may explore together:

  • Relational Neurobiology & Attachment Understanding
    We draw from the science of interpersonal neurobiology (IPNB) & attachment theory to help you understand specifically how early experiences shaped your nervous system & emotional patterns. This awareness can bring powerful insights into current challenges—helping you recognize & shift unconscious patterns rooted in the past.

  • Memory Reconsolidation for Lasting Change
    When a painful or limiting memory is reactivated in a safe, supportive environment & met with new, emotionally corrective experiences, the brain has the ability to rewrite the emotional impact of that memory. This process, known as memory reconsolidation, is key to deep & lasting healing—allowing old patterns to be transformed or released.

  • Visualization, Meditation & Active Imagination
    Using guided practices, we create space to connect with your inner world—gently exploring thoughts, feelings, images, & sensations to assist transformation. These tools can help provide the experiences necessary to uncover & offer meaningful changes.

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) & Shadow Integration
    Through a compassionate dialogue with the different parts of yourself—especially the ones you've had to hide or push away—we work toward greater internal harmony. This allows you to reclaim more energy, freedom, & self-trust.

  • Somatic Practices & Body-Based Healing
    Approaches like breathwork and TRE® (Trauma Releasing Exercises) help release deeply held tension & trauma stored in the body. These practices support your nervous system, increase resilience, & reconnect you with your body as a source of wisdom, not just symptoms.
