Counseling is a collaborative process that facilitates personal growth, self-awareness, and healing by addressing emotional, psychological, and behavioral challenges. Rooted in empathy, trust, and professional ethics, counseling provides individuals with a safe and supportive environment to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Through evidence-based techniques and personalized approaches, counselors help clients navigate life transitions, mental health concerns, trauma, relationships, and overall well-being. The goal of counseling is to empower individuals to develop coping strategies, improve self-efficacy, and enhance their quality of life by fostering resilience, insight, and personal transformation.

Natural healing is a holistic approach to wellness that focuses on the body’s innate ability to heal itself through the integration of mind, body, and spirit. Rooted in ancient traditions and modern integrative practices, natural healing encompasses various modalities, including herbal medicine, energy healing, bodywork, nutrition, mindfulness, and movement-based therapies. It emphasizes prevention, balance, and self-care by addressing the root causes of imbalance rather than merely alleviating symptoms. Natural healing recognizes the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being, often incorporating practices such as meditation, Reiki, Shamanic practices, breathwork, and plant medicine. By fostering harmony within the body’s natural rhythms, this approach supports overall vitality, resilience, and a deeper connection to self and nature.

Supervision is a vital component of professional growth for counselors, providing a structured and supportive environment to enhance clinical skills, ethical decision-making, and personal development. My supervision approach is rooted in a holistic, trauma-informed framework that integrates humanistic, existential, and somatic perspectives, empowering clinicians to deepen their self-awareness and confidence in their work.

As a supervisor, I prioritize creating a safe, reflective space where supervisees can explore case conceptualization, therapeutic techniques, countertransference, and professional identity development. I incorporate elements of EMDR, Parts and Memory Therapy, Brainspotting, and other integrative modalities to guide clinicians in developing a well-rounded and effective practice.

Supervision is tailored to each clinician’s needs, whether they are seeking licensure, refining their therapeutic approach, or integrating alternative healing practices within an ethical framework. My goal is to help clinicians grow into skilled, ethical, and self-assured practitioners who provide impactful care while maintaining their own well-being.

Retreats at Optimal Focus Counseling offer a dedicated space for deep healing, self-reflection, and emotional renewal.

Participants engage in guided activities such as meditation, shamanic practices, breathwork, nature therapy, trauma-informed workshops, and somatic healing to foster self-awareness and inner balance.

I offer a specialized mentorship program for fully licensed mental health practitioners who feel called to integrate spiritual, Indigenous, or earth-based healing approaches into their work in an ethical, grounded, and culturally humble way. This mentorship supports clinicians in developing a practice that honors both clinical integrity and ancestral wisdom—bridging Western therapeutic models with somatic, ceremonial, and relational-cultural traditions. Through guided mentorship, practitioners deepen their intuitive gifts, strengthen their ethical frameworks, explore culturally responsive ways of incorporating non-Western modalities, and learn to hold healing spaces that are trauma-informed, spiritually attuned, and rooted in relational accountability.
