I am offering individual, couple and family intensives.
I provide Body/Mind/Spirit Trauma Resolution tx that facilitates emotional & physiological healing, empowering clients to learn self compassion as they rewrite their life narrative. We often move through our old stories that influence our present. As an experienced practitioner of Somatic Experiencing (SE), and Psychodrama, I use body based action methods to bring clients into the heart of their stories. SE brings awareness to the connection between sensations and affect to free up the tangles in the nervous system caused by traumatic events that can result in living out of alignment with our true nature.

Please feel free to contact me to discuss how I can support your family.
I became a therapist following a dream to help people navigate life. I specialize in work with children and adolescents, and young adults. I've received extensive post graduate training in treatments I believe in and have seen be effective. Research shows that therapy success of treatment is built on fostering a supportive relationship between client and therapist. I am specifically passionate about helping those that have experience trauma, are in the neurodiverse community, and those in the LGBTQIA+ community.

Challenges without support can be lonely for the child and their family.
Let's say you've come to me to ask for help, for you or your child. I would say, "Have you tried making art about it?" Don't get bogged down by any worry about art-making skills or ability. I aim to find the most comfortable way for you or your child to share because a safe and therapeutic space to express yourself will help uncover unexpected solutions for yourself and your child. Because sometimes words just don't cut it.

My name is Soren and I work with children and adults of all ages to help people grow in whatever directions feel the most authentic to them. If you are feeling misunderstood, lost, trapped, or alone, my practice is a safe space for you. Many times we hide our deepest truths from others and even from ourselves in order to keep moving forward and not make a fuss or ignite difficult emotions. However, this denies us the chance for a more full and connected life. Life is hard, beautiful, and confusing. In my work we learn to hold space for all of these truths and explore them honestly.

Adults, Teens, and Children in need of counseling benefit from Creative Arts Therapy, as do families, and couples. I offer the optional use of Creative Arts to help clients gain a much needed perspective to assist them in their healing. Words, alone, cannot fully express your feelings. The creative arts can provide a potent "language" for expression and requires no previous art making experience. Paint, college, clay, mask-making, and creative writing help clients express, understand, and transform their feelings into allies for healing. Art Therapy has been designated as a mind-body approach by the National Institute of Health.

I specialize in treating maternal mental health, young children, and women in various life transitions. I believe that providing a safe and flourishing atmosphere for individuals and families to explore and process through their hopes, fears, and past has the potential to provide immense healing. Early parenthood and life transitions often awaken a myriad of emotions from past experiences and future unknowns. This awakening can shape the way in which we and our children experience and react to the world. It takes a village, and therapy can be an important part of our village.

Is your child’s thinking, feeling, or behavior negatively affecting their ability to fully engage in life? I help children and families identify challenge areas and provide support through offering individual sessions for children, family-based sessions, and parent-focused sessions. While I may offer specific expertise relating to therapy and child development, parents are the experts when it comes to their own children, so I rely on collaboration with family members to provide the most effective treatment.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
