Creative Integrations, a licensed professional counselor with an M.Ed, passionately delves into the transformative and challenging journey of exploring the depths of human experience. Their philosophy centers on the belief that there exists an innate wisdom within both the body and soul, a wisdom often overlooked in today’s fast-paced culture. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms of distress, they aim to uncover the narrative behind individuals' stories across their lifetimes and generations. In a time where the integration of the soul’s essence and understanding of the body’s history is vital, Creative strives to mend the rift between these aspects of healing, fostering a sense of wholeness and clarity. With training in Somatic Experiencing, they bring a creative touch through a variety of therapeutic modalities such as PsychoDrama, Sand Tray, Play Therapy, Guided Imagery & Music, and Art Therapy. Coupled with their expertise in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), they provide support to teens and families, ensuring that therapy is an engaging and enriching experience. In their work with couples, they utilize Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT) while also guiding parents through the intricacies of neuroscience and effective cognitive strategies. This multifaceted approach empowers individuals to discover unique, creative solutions and experiences through the therapeutic process.
