Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC, NCC

My Approach

As I have wrestled to understand my story, I have seen goodness in discovering treasures of truth and beauty tucked away in dark spaces of my heart and body.  By coming alive to what I know and feel, I have found walking through darkness brings freedom. 

​

I am curious and kind with clients, using insight, questions, and motivations in session. Where we go in counseling is up to you. I will follow your lead as we collaborate on how to “find you”. I envision the process as a maze with beautiful hedges, flowers, the subtle babble of a creek; extravagant and lush in some places, wildly overgrown in others; sometimes dry and barren.  There are many landscapes to be curious about.  And such beauty.  

 

The process is winding and messy.

​

The theories I use are a combination of Narrative Therapy, Trauma Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). 

 

This is an invitation to seek your treasures, truth and beauty.

About Gayle

Counseling Specialties

The human soul doesn't want to be advised or fixed or saved. It simply wants to be witnessed - to be seen, heard and companioned exactly as it is.
