Adventure Therapy
We provide individual, couple, and group therapy as well as therapy supervision.
Adventure therapy takes advantage of outdoor experiences as a treatment to promote growth and development in physical, social, and psychological well-being. Experiencing new challenges can empower an awareness in learning new insights into managing everyday circumstances. Each adventure will offer opportunities to find metaphors in the natural world, create mental and emotional mapping, and restructure relational insufficiencies.
The activities used in treatment will be specific to each client's interest, strengths, and desires. Adventures have included, but are not limited to, hiking, biking, SUP boarding, rock climbing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, surfing, canoeing, fire-making, swimming, and other sports.
The psychological framework that will be integrated includes the work of relational psychodynamic, humanistic experiential, and system centered therapies. The cognitive and verbal effort will aim to discover the true healing power of the mind, body, and spirit.
about
I bring over 15 years of facilitating both individual and group therapeutic experiences in a variety of environments and institutions to my therapy. The therapeutic work has been directed from a humanistic, relational, and psychodynamic perspective with integration of Gestalt and process experiential orientations.
The integration of adventure with psychological therapy is an emergent opportunity that builds upon all of my skills and experiences. I feel comfortable and capable in a variety of physically and psychologically challenging places.
As a therapist, guide and educator, I believe there is healing and goodness within us all. I have a deep gratitude for all the mysteries of the world and have seen how all things can be made new. I have witnessed how the outside world can inspire those who have lost their way.
