Here is one of the lobby walls! Gallery walls like this are always a work in progress in my opinion but I love it so far! How many can relate to the too many tabs piece? 😜😍

😍NYTTG for Empaths Round 2 started last night! This round we decided to make a scrapbook version of an πŸ₯ΈEmpath Survival Guide. Yesterday we worked on playlists for different purposes. As empaths we are highly sensitive to many things, including music. Sometimes we need music to get moving, sometimes we need it to feel confident, and other times we need a playlist to help us cry it out!

πŸ€“In group, we chat about empath related issues while working on our projects. Today the topic of energy protection came up. We talked about how important duality is in relationships.... in other words when we care and love someone but that person also drains our energy in one way or another. It's ok to care for someone AND make protecting your energy your priority. This is another super difficult one for empaths who often feel guilt for putting their needs first.

🀩 I got to visit Southridge High School last week! I was supporting a class preparing students for job interviews.

These opportunities fill my bucket! I'm thankful to be living in Tricities and for the ability to work with teens in our community.

Thank you for having me!

I truly enjoy doing outreach so if there is ever an opportunity you think I might be a fit for, let me know =) I have come to classes to talk about mental health for middle, high school, and university level πŸ’›

About the Therapist

Approachable. Relatable. Nonjudgmental.

I am not your mother's therapist.

In other words, I'm not your typical therapist. My soul age is 5. I wear dresses with dinosaurs on them. I play with putty and enjoy making messes. When other adults ask about my hobbies, I have to quickly think of other, more boring, things to say than collecting toys and fidgets. Just kidding, I am very proud of my awesome toy collection.

I’m also not your mother's therapist because well, I am one of few Child & Teen Therapy experts in Tri-Cities. Therapy for children and teens shouldn't feel stale and clinical, yuck! If you're looking for a therapist that is approachable, relatable, and non-judgmental for a child or teen, I am here to help. Also parents, don't worry, the girl in the dinosaur dress also has a lot of education, degrees, and training too. I'm not all glitter, slime, and putty!
