All feelings welcome!
Every experience and choice you've made has brought you to this moment—right here, right now. I specialize in supporting individuals with ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I am deeply committed to creating a safe and compassionate space where you can truly be seen and understood. My goal is to help you connect with, nurture, and honor the most important person in your life: YOU. As we heal and integrate past experiences, we open ourselves to self-compassion, forgiveness, and acceptance, which we can then then share with those around us. By building trust and safety within ourselves, we cultivate confidence, motivation, and a deep sense of security.
I also speak Spanish!
Josephine Savoldelli, RPC-C
I am deeply passionate about healing through nature and believe in its transformative power to support emotional well-being. My approach combines the benefits of therapy with the natural world, creating a unique space where clients can experience growth and healing in an environment free from walls. I help individuals set healthy boundaries with themselves and others, cultivating space for reflection, emotional clarity, and personal growth. Central to my work is the power of movement; by encouraging clients to move through nature—whether through walking, hiking, or other forms of physical activity—they are able to process emotions, release tension, and create lasting change.

3. What modalities of counselling do you practice?
At our practice, we offer a wide range of Integrative therapy approaches that combines various therapeutic techniques to tailor treatment to individual needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps individuals embrace their thoughts and feelings while committing to personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets negative thought patterns and behaviors. Gestalt therapy emphasizes self-awareness and personal responsibility. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) uses mindfulness to prevent the recurrence of depression. Motivational Interviewing encourages change by exploring and resolving ambivalence. Narrative therapy helps clients reshape their life stories, while Person-Centered therapy promotes empathy and unconditional positive regard. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is goal-oriented and short-term, focusing on solutions rather than problems. Finally, Trauma-Focused therapy helps individuals heal from past traumatic experiences, offering specialized support for those affected by trauma.
4. How many sessions will be necessary?
The number of therapy sessions you may need depends on your unique circumstances, including your personal experiences, challenges, and goals. Since each individual has different life stories and traumas, therapy duration can vary widely—there is no one-size-fits-all approach. During our initial discussions, we will work together to identify your goals and create a tailored plan that fits both your needs and your budget. Our focus is to ensure that in each session, you leave with practical skills and strategies that you can add to your toolbox, empowering you to make meaningful progress toward your goals.
