Counseling for the hard times

Do you need relief from worry and sadness, more self-confidence, healing from old wounds? I invite you to experience more ease through Somatic Psychotherapy and Counseling.

At Counseling for Joy in Corvallis you will find a warm, intelligent professional to tackle the sadness, anger, frustration, or worry that robs you of joy. You’ll be welcomed to the place where you can explore and heal. In our counseling work together you will have my full attention, expertise, extensive training, and passion for therapeutic work.

Somatic therapeutic work is a mind-body approach that goes beyond just relief of symptoms. Together we examine what is unique and meaningful for you. We track stress in the nervous system and reformat neural pathways. We envision what the rest of life might be–freed from some of the restricting beliefs, patterns, and negative emotions that rob you of happiness. We craft new ways to move forward with joy.

More about Counseling for Joy approaches:

Somatic psychotherapy is a mind-body approach that works with more than thoughts and beliefs. It targets the nervous system to rewire some of the physical and mental pain that plagues your life. You get more than insight. You get real change in the way your mind and body work together to help you feel ease, well-being and self-confidence. Your own mind and body work together to bring the joy you deserve.

The neuroscientific research of physicians, psychologists, and neurologists, such as Peter Levine, PhD, Daniel Siegel, MD, Bessel Van der Kolk, MD, and others guides the work we will do together, giving you practical, tested and effective ways to feel better. This neuroscience-based approach to regulating emotions, building better relationships, and resolving trauma can help you feel better.
