Nurture Through Nature Counseling

The world is incredibly demanding. Experiencing it deeply takes a massive, unseen toll, leaving us exhausted.

I use grounding nature therapy and Telehealth to meet you where you are most comfortable, supporting you in finding your own rhythm and settling into deep acceptance.

You are no longer interested in “pushing through” pretending everything is fine

If your mind feels constantly overloaded, you might notice:

  • Hitting a sudden wall of burnout after a period of over-functioning or trying to keep up with everything you believe you “should” be doing.

  • Feeling completely paralyzed by simple steps. Spending hours frozen and unable to begin, trapped in cycles of scrolling, spacing out, or being distracted by something less important while your brain berates you for not just getting up.

  • Rest never actually feels rejuvenating. You might physically sit down to relax, but your mind keeps spinning with internal noise and worry spirals, leaving you just as stressed and drained.

  • Feeling depleted by maintaining relationships. Finding that social interactions take so much internal masking and boundary-crossing that they end up feeling like an obligation rather than a source of joy.

  • Navigating sudden emotional spikes without words to explain them. Wanting desperately to articulate what is bother you, but feeling so flooded in the moment that your words vanish, leaving you feeling misunderstood or stuck.

What if the answer isn’t continuing to try harder? What if we can design a path that supports your unique nervous system?

How I Offer Support

Therapy with me balances a calming, grounded environment with the honest, supportive challenges needed for real growth. I structure my practice to work with your nervous system, offering support through:

  • Walking Side-by-Side in Nature: We take our sessions outside on casual trails in Bloomington. I choose locations that are accessible and offer options for gentle movement or quiet sitting. Moving outdoors removes the intense pressure of forced eye contact, provides a natural outlet for restless physical energy, and allows the grounding sounds of nature to calm your mind and nervous system.

  • Low-Friction Telehealth: If stepping onto a trail feels like too much energy or not possible due to distance, we meet virtually across Indiana and New Mexico. This offers a safe, high-comfort option where you can log in from your favorite room, wrap up in a blanket, and show up exactly as you are.

  • Mindful Acceptance: We practice opening up space around yoru racing thoughts. Instead of burning your limited energy fighting against worry loops or internal noise, we use mindfulness to help your mind settle, allowing you to choose actions that actually align with your values.

  • Navigating Anxiety Gently: We work together to untangle the intense “what-if” loops that fuel anxiety and perfectionsim. Instead of pushing you past your limits, we work at a collaborative pace, learning how to tolerate uncomfortable thoughts without hitting a sudden wall of burnout.

  • A Complete Pressure-Free Space: You don’t need to mask, perform, or pretend to have it all together here. Every session is paced entirely around your comfort, focused not on “fixing” who you are, but on helping you settle into deep self-acceptance.

Owner and Therapist

I have always felt most like myself when I am out in nature, leaning into the slower, more intentional parts of life. As a nature lover at heart and find immense regulation and joy in being outdoors—hiking, swimming, or simply stepping away from the collective noise for a while. In my own life, I value a balance of adventure and stillness—I love the spark of exploring new places, but I also protect plenty of space to just exist without an agenda.

Because this is how I find my own footing, it is exactly how I show up as a therapist. I don’t sit behind a clinical script or think I know what’s best for you. I act as a collaborative, down-to-earth partner rather than a rigid authority, helping you make sense of your lived experience.
