Welcome!
We are a growing group of counselors supporting clients in Whatcom, Skagit, Snohomish & King Counties. Each of us come with an individual set of strengths and specialties.
Our mutual passion is the horse human connection and specialize in Equine Facilitated services. We also offer services in traditional office settings, walk and talk, nature-based, and telehealth experiences.
What unites us is our ability to provide the art of counseling through multiple lenses and modalities, drawing from somatic, embodied, interpersonal, and experiential therapies. At the heart of our practice is meeting clients where they are and creating a strong connection between us—the connection we build becomes the foundation for transformation.
We are committed to working with clients across the lifespan with a wide range of concerns and backgrounds.
Thank you for being here.

Our vision is that all people experience their full potential for health, safety and well-being.
Through our collective's unique relationship, in addition to insurance and private pay options, we partner with a nonprofit organization to provide reduced fee, equitable, accessible opportunities for those that qualify.
Imagine a life where the voice that guides you is the voice of who you truly are. That you trust your sense of knowing and insight to guide you with focus and clarity. Your heart, body, and mind are completely in coherence.
We are passionate about supporting your journey to coherence, empowerment, joy, hope and fulfillment. Our methods focus on an experiential, somatic, connection-based, holistic lens.
Through calming the nervous system, regulating emotions and energy, and ultimately on finding moments of joy, lightness and hope, we work together to help you move forward differently. Our therapeutic approach is interactive and collaborative, utilizing the natural living world and your connection to it as a guide towards therapeutic wisdom.
Our clients report feeling empowered as individuals while also learning to support, collaborate, and find strength in the connection they have with loved ones, peers, and their communities.
