Ginkgo Leaf Counseling

trauma healing

Ginkgo Leaf Counseling offers culturally sensitive psychotherapy for mental health issues and personal growth.

 

We approach healing through the lens of trauma, which is often found at the root of emotional pain. When we tend to trauma, we can free our selves and open up space to deeply flourish.

​

Whatever you are experiencing in your life's journey, our aim is to empower you and walk beside you in your journey towards healing and growth.

Treatment Focus Areas

Depression & Anxiety

The smooth flow of the nervous system towards a calm, regulated state can get disrupted. The body gets overwhelmed by stress and locks into states of hyper vigilance and shut down. We support clients in releasing the restrictions that keep them from fully experiencing peace and joyfulness.

Relationship Issues

When we experience inconsistent, frightening, or neglectful care in childhood, it affects our ability to feel safe in relationships and safe within ourselves. We address attachment issues to help individuals build healthier and more secure relationships, starting with the one they have with themself. We help clients learn to create a secure internal attachment they can carry with them wherever they go.

Trauma

Trauma comes in many forms and can have lasting effects on our sense of identity, safety, and beliefs about the world. Our treatment focuses on the connection between mind and body, helping individuals release stored trauma energy and restore balance and resilience to the nervous system.

Culture & Identity

For those with marginalized identities and multicultural backgrounds, navigating day to day life can feel especially threatening, confusing, and isolating. Our approach focuses on honoring an authentic self, making connections to culture and heritage that provide strength and wisdom.

Key Offerings

Brain and Body Based Therapy

Clients are guided to tune into the wisdom and intuition of the body's sensory system. Our somatic focus, using brainspotting therapy, encourages the brain’s natural healing process to flow.

Personalized
Treatment

We will address the issues you most want to with intentional focus. Your individual experiences and desires for your healing journey will guide treatment. 

Nurturing
Environment

In the space we cultivate at Ginkgo Leaf Counseling  you will always find safety to sit with the sacred grief and rage that arises from experiencing and witnessing the ongoing impacts of colonial violence around the globe. 
 
Here you will find affirming care that acknowledges the ways systems of oppression harm us all. You will find solidarity in building a world that unifies and connects us as a human family. We bow in deep reverence to those before us who resisted injustice and upheld the belief that all life is precious and to be protected.
