Find Your Way

About

Welcome

Welcome to Shepherding the Heart Counseling, a safe and affirming place to heal, to grow,
to change your life and relationships.
Creating the life and relationships you want is not only possible, it can be fun, exciting,
healing, freeing, and soothing. Old patterns, beliefs, hurts, and traumas don't have to hold
you back. Heal the past and create a rich, connected, and flexible present. Create a future
that honors who you are and who you are becoming as an individual or as a couple or
family.


As you author your own life and co-author your relationships, you can create expansive
opportunities, healing experiences, and growth free from past patterns, rigid thinking,
chaotic emotions or hurtful interactions. For many people, our old wounds, childhood hurts,
deep traumas or controlling anxieties have us before we have them. If you’re reading this
now, then perhaps it’s time to integrate all the experiences and parts-of-self into a cohesive
whole person having experiences rather than the experiences having you.


My approach is solutions-focused, strengths-based and integrative-- using neuroscience to
understand and rewire our feelings, thoughts, stories, and actions. I integrate EFT
(Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples) and EFIT (Emotionally Focused Individual
Therapy) with Internal Family Systems and Personality so that we can collaborate and
partner in creating more satisfying and connected relationships with others and with
ourselves, leading to more fulfilling and rewarding lives.

​

Depending on your interest and need, our work together may include healing a variety of
traumatic experiences through a range of research-backed interventions; building more
connected relationships with primary persons through EFT, exploring and harnessing
personality traits and strengths through EFIT and the Enneagram.
