A FEW WORDS FROM KYLE:
I enjoy mindfulness somatic, EMDR, humanistic, and internal family systems strategies primarily, yet I also pull from existential and thought-based practices.

Our bodies and minds are often running at a disconnect. I have learned that this disconnect can wreak havoc if not properly addressed. Things like trauma or anxiety, can oftentimes leave us fragmented and without integration of clarity and safety. Together, we will get you back on track with more clarity and internal connection to achieve your goals.

OTHER INTERESTS:
 I am originally from a small Idaho town but have ventured out living in both Portland and Eugene and have enjoyed traveling quite a bit across the world. I enjoy music and art, boarding of any kind, playing/writing music on guitar, and spending time with kind and authentic individuals.

"Another kind of happiness exists that you can feel steadily whether you are in a relationship or not. It comes from a connectedness that happens when all your parts see and trust one another and feel accepted by the Self."
