Individual Themed Sessions

 
Individual Sessions for Mental Health Support

In therapy, it is important to focus on building a supportive and safe space to address challenges like anxiety, depression, and trauma. My approach emphasizes a collaborative and flexible framework tailored to your individual needs,  for a more organic and meaningful exploration of your emotional and mental health.

​  I am very holistic in my approach, I incorporate a mind-body-spirit worldview that is very open-minded and welcoming. This approach allows us to explore your inner world deeply and with compassion, uncovering the patterns and emotions that influence your thoughts and behaviors - along with aligning with your true self as a guide. 

How SoulCollage®, Archetypes, Parts and Subconscious Exploration Support Mental Health

Our mental and emotional well-being is deeply influenced by the subconscious patterns, inner voices, and hidden beliefs that shape our lives. When we feel stuck in anxiety, emotionally overwhelm, or relationship struggles, we often lack clarity, conscious choice, and connection to our true self. Working with archetypes, shadow work, and subconscious imagery through SoulCollage® provides a powerful, visual way to gain insight, regulate emotions, and reconnect with inner wisdom. These practices align with parts work, helping individuals recognize and engage with different aspects of the self in a way that fosters healing and integration.

Anxiety and Nervous System Regulation

Anxiety often arises when the mind is overwhelmed by fear, uncertainty, self-doubt, or overactive inner voices. SoulCollage® and archetype exploration create a sense of structure and stability, helping organize and externalize emotions that feel chaotic. The process of choosing images and creating cards naturally calms the nervous system, shifting from a fight-or-flight state into a more regulated, self-led space.

  • Working with archetypes like the sage, the guardian, or the creator provides clarity and perspective, guiding individuals to move beyond reactive thought loops.

  • The practice of symbolic imagery and meditation encourages the mind to slow down, focus, and process emotions visually, allowing deeper subconscious insights to emerge.

  • Just as parts work in IFS helps unblend from protective responses, archetypes allow us to step into a different inner energy—one that feels more grounded, wise, or courageous when needed.

Emotional Healing, Depression, and Shadow Work

Depression often manifests as disconnection, suppressed emotions, and a loss of meaning. When we suppress aspects of ourselves—our emotions, needs, or creativity—we may unknowingly push them into the shadow, where they become unconscious but still influence us. Shadow work helps bring these hidden parts to light, allowing them to be acknowledged and healed.

  • The alchemist and the healer archetypes support transformation, helping individuals see that emotional stagnation is not permanent and that change is always possible.

  • The orphan or the wounded child archetype allows people to connect with past emotional wounds in a compassionate way, fostering self-acceptance. Inner child work naturally integrates into this process, helping individuals recognize and tend to the younger parts of themselves that may still carry fear, unmet needs, or feelings of unworthiness. By working with these archetypes through SoulCollage®, visualization, and journaling, individuals can create a safe internal relationship with their younger selves, offering them the guidance, validation, and emotional support they may not have received in the past. This process not only encourages healing but also restores a sense of inner trust, playfulness, and creativity, allowing for deeper self-compassion and emotional balance.

  • Visual representation through SoulCollage® helps externalize emotions that may feel overwhelming, providing clarity and a sense of control over one’s inner world.

When we bring shadow aspects into awareness through imagery, we reclaim lost energy, hidden strengths, and deeper self-understanding, reducing inner resistance and emotional heaviness.

Relationships, Boundaries, and Personal Empowerment

Relationship struggles often stem from unconscious patterns, difficulty setting boundaries, or a fear of being truly seen. SoulCollage® and archetype exploration offer a mirror to relational patterns, helping individuals gain insight into their role in connections with others.

  • The warrior and the sovereign archetypes support assertiveness, self-advocacy, and the ability to communicate personal needs.

  • The lover and the nurturer archetypes help deepen intimacy and emotional connection, whether in friendships, partnerships, or self-relationship.

  • The trickster archetype can reveal where we may deceive ourselves in relationships—whether by over-giving, avoiding vulnerability, or repeating old habits.

Understanding these archetypal energies allows for more conscious choices in interactions, helping people navigate relationships from a place of self-awareness rather than unconscious patterns.

Self-Discovery, Intuition, and Personal Growth

Subconscious exploration through SoulCollage® helps individuals uncover who they are beneath conditioning, expectations, and past experiences. The more we understand our inner world, the more we can make choices that align with our authentic self rather than react from old wounds or fears.

  • Identifying personal archetypes provides clarity, direction, and a deeper sense of identity.

  • Meditation and journaling create space to tune into intuition, quieting external noise so that inner wisdom can emerge.

  • The practice of choosing an archetype, much like choosing a self-led part in IFS, helps people step into a different internal energy when needed—whether that means calling on the sage for wisdom, the explorer for curiosity, or the warrior for courage.

As the philosopher once said, know thyself. Archetypal exploration and subconscious work bring clarity to the inner world, making self-awareness more tangible, visual, and embodied, rather than just theoretical.

Mind-Body-Spirit Integration for Emotional Balance

This work is deeply integrative, supporting the mind, body, and spirit in a way that goes beyond traditional cognitive approaches.

  • Engaging in visual and symbolic processing bypasses overthinking, helping regulate emotions and release stress more effectively.

  • Archetype work normalizes emotional shifts, allowing individuals to understand and embrace different aspects of themselves without judgment.

  • By integrating these techniques, people develop a greater sense of wholeness, self-trust, and long-term emotional resilience.

I’ve created this space to be both creative and deeply nourishing, offering a balance between intuition and reflection, structure and exploration. In a world that can feel overwhelming, having both practical tools and expressive outlets can help us process emotions, gain clarity, and reconnect with a sense of inner strength.

Whether through SoulCollage®, archetype exploration, parts work, or guided self-inquiry, my goal is to provide a space where you can explore, reflect, and grow in a way that feels meaningful and empowering

Very Important Note:

All individual sessions are designed for individuals who are not in crisis and feel comfortable being able to learn new information weekly and can practice the techniques throughout the week.   To ensure a good fit, I’ll schedule a meet-and-greet with each participant before the class begins.
