Therapy - the ebb and flow of healing. The navigation of relationships. The vulnerability we cultivate towards authenticity. Working through temporary discomfort to see the change and growth within ourselves. Acknowledging the fear with the unfamiliar. Seeking therapy can often be a difficult step and perhaps unpredictable. AND with that unpredicaibility, therapy may help you reconnect with curiousity, compassion and understanding. Having been through the therapeutic journey myself, please know that you do not have to walk along this journey on your own.

Hi folks! I'm Jett. I’m a white, queer & non-binary settler therapist. I strive to cultivate a non-judgmental, anti-oppressive & trauma-informed therapeutic space with clients.

Hello and welcome! It might be difficult to put into words what you’re looking for in therapy- that is a valid starting place, and one I’m personally familiar with. Maybe you feel like you’re meeting external expectations and are ‘getting things done’, but masking an internal experience that’s more complex, leaving you feeling exhausted, unseen, and stuck. Perhaps you struggle with serving the needs of others first and use unhelpful habits to cope with emotions and get through day-to-day. Things don’t have to reach a boiling point before you seek support or prioritize your well-being.

I work from a strength based model, recognizing you as the expert in your life. Together we discuss goals for therapy, and collaborate on the best approach, while incorporating individualized coping strategies, attachment based perspectives, nervous system regulation, and mindfulness. I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy to treat trauma/PTSD/phobias. This is a brief therapy and treatment can be accomplished in 1-5 sessions. A.R.T uses bilateral stimulation, with a specific script (this allows you to go into the trauma without retelling). A.R.T is more somatic based than cognitive, compared to other treatments (EMDR)

Do you have a child that struggles to understand their own emotions? Do they feel stuck in a moment or feeling that they can’t move past?

The holistic approach of music therapy can help to overcome emotional pain, disconnect, and numbness, and can increase a sense of purpose in the world. My unique approach blends talk therapy with body-based methods of somatic and music therapy to support the body-mind connection.

I am excited to have a private practice offering therapy that integrates somatic practices and the arts with EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy. While specialized, this integration provides infinite possibilities to support you in your journey of health, growth and healing.

Finding a place of refuge to pursue healing takes great courage and tenacity.

Whatever it is that’s bothering you, there’s no need to struggle alone. Whatever it is, it can help to talk about it. Sometimes we just need someone to really hear us. Sometimes we need to learn new skills to help us cope. Sometimes we need help figuring out how what has happened to us affects how we think, feel and behave. Sometimes we need help to heal from things we have done, or things that were done to us. You’re here because you think it might be time to talk to someone, too.
