Individual Nature-Based Therapy (Adults & children 8+)​
Do you feel like you’re holding it together on the outside, while inside you’re exhausted, anxious, or hurting in ways you can’t keep pushing through?
​
Do you have children who carry big feelings, big energy, or quiet worries they don’t yet have words for?
​
My individual therapy sessions meet you (or your child) exactly where you are — gently, slowly, and without pressure. We move at the pace of your nervous system, not a timeline, creating conditions where steadiness, capacity, and connection can grow.
Imagine having space to:
-
Settle your nervous system so your grounded, authentic self has room to show up
-
Understand patterns that keep you stuck in overwhelm or reactivity
-
Develop coping skills that fit real life, not just theory
​
For children: space to name feelings, understand outbursts, practice regulation, and build safe, healthy ways to cope
For both: to feel seen, supported, and more equipped to navigate daily life
​
What sessions look like
-
A calm, supportive setting outdoors in St. Paul / Roseville MN parks
-
Somatic work, parts work, experiential and play-based interventions, nature-based tools, grounding exercises, and reflective conversation
-
Faith can be thoughtfully integrated if you desire
-
Therapy dog support available for children when helpful
-
Sessions are 50–60 minutes
​
This is clinical mental health therapy grounded in trauma-responsive, nature-informed care. While therapy can be deeply supportive, it is not a crisis service; if you are in immediate danger or need urgent help, emergency resources are recommended.
​
Private pay and insurance options available.
Guided Forest Bathing & Nature Walks
Slow down. Breathe. Come home to your senses.
​
Do you crave a pause — a slow exhale — and a reminder that you’re held?
This is not hiking. It’s guided slowness, sensory awareness, and being present with the forest in a way that supports overall well-being, calms the nervous system, and quiets the noise inside. These experiences are non-clinical and complementary, designed to help you care for yourself alongside everyday life, therapy, or other wellness practices.

Release stress and emotional heaviness

Why Choose This Approach
​​​​​
-
Because I don’t see you as a “diagnosis” or a “problem to fix.” I see you as someone whose nervous system, body, soul, and life story deserve a safe, compassionate, grounded space with nature as your partner to breathe, heal, and remember who you truly are.
​
-
Because healing isn’t just about coping. It’s about reconnecting — to yourself, to your values, to the earth, to rest, to rhythm, to what matters.
​
-
Because transformation doesn’t always come from “doing more,” but from “slowing down,” “listening,” and “being”—often with the guidance of the forest, seasonal rhythms, and sensory awareness.
​
-
Because I respect your faith, your spiritual longings, and your desire for meaning — and will integrate them only if you want.

Land Acknowledgement
I recognize my Swiss Identity shaped me in how I understand cultures. Working in America brought me in touch with the hurtful reality many people suffered through Europeans coming to this land and claiming it. When working in America I acknowledge that the land in St. Paul and Roseville area where I do my work on, was stolen from the Indigenous People who lived here already long before European explorers believed to have discovered new land, settlers came and colonies were build. In a treaty in 1851 the US government took the land from the Dakotas. I therefore want to recognize on my walks the land we get to stand on with gratitude and understanding that this is stolen land and belongs to the Dakota people.
