Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect in therapy at Growth Explored

Therapy sessions provide a collaborative space to explore how past and present experiences shape your current patterns, relationships and sense of safety. Sessions may include CBT, IFS, narrative therapy, somatic awareness, trauma-informed frameworks and practices rooted in collective care. You guide the pace and depth of the work, and together we focus on building insight, regulation and sustainable change.

Do you offer virtual and in person sessions

Yes. Therapy sessions are primarily offered virtually for clients across my licensed states. In person Somatic Experiencing Support Sessions are available in select locations, with scheduling listed on the Somatic Experiencing page.

What issues do you commonly support in therapy sessions

Clients often seek support around trauma recovery, relational patterns, identity development, burnout, grief, ancestral and cultural disconnection, stress, perfectionism, and season of transition. Many clients identify with feeling stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected from themselves and are exploring ways to move toward alignment and ease.

How are Somatic Experiencing Support Sessions different from therapy sessions?

Therapy sessions are clinical services provided under my LCSW license. They include assessment, diagnosis, and clinical treatment planning.

Somatic Experiencing Support Sessions are not therapy. They are offered through my training as a Somatic Experiencing Beginner Trained Practitioner and do not replace psychotherapy. They use body-based tools to support regulation rather than treating mental health conditions.
