Professional Consulting
We all do better with someone in our corner. Someone encouraging us, reminding us of the goals we want to pass, and lending their knowledge and expertise to us. To set aside a time to get support, consider consultation.
The intention is to answer all your current questions while we co-create strategies for your goals. If there’s something I don’t know, I’ll work to find the answer for you. We will collaborate on how often we meet and support is available between meetings while we work together. You will also leave with resources for the future.
Examples of professional consultation topics:
Practitioner well-being
Moral injury and implicit bias
Integrating post-traumatic growth and career environments
Self-preservation for victims, survivors, and witnesses of crime
Success while experiencing stalking, harassment, and/or bullying
Documentation, basic billing practices, DOH reports and responses
Creating a welcoming environment for those with foster care & housing insecurity experience
Support while creating, adjusting, or tracking goals

tl:dr
Work and life experiences led me to the natural next step of Private Practice. Having support and encouragement through our experiences is priceless and it's how I pay it forward.

Creating a small space where folks could honor their calling, be themselves, and grow, was essential for me to be able to provide a sustainable level of care. A space where secure, inclusive cultures are the norm, not exploitation and fear. Thus, Meadows Agency was formed for psychotherapy and another practice founded for those seeking consultation services. The intention is to remain small as an antidote to “progress is bigger/more”. I think of myself as part of a constellation of like-minded business owners who are tending to trees they will never sit under.Working in spaces where folks do not feel represented, respected, or followed up with appropriately takes a toll on everyone; just like the supremacy culture many of us are indoctrinated into. Being with, truly being with folks in vulnerable moments, means we need to be supported and respected as providers to perform best. There’s no way around it.
In the past, colleagues and supervisors subjected me to harassment, sexual assault, transmisia, and the eventual reporting of a clinical supervisor for sexual misconduct with minor clients. This kind of culture is bad for all of us and even worse for a larger majority of us. How could I deny that there had to be other options for long-term, successful outcomes? Initially, I thought working in advocacy or behind-the-scenes support for healthcare and social service was where I would stay. However, my love of the therapeutic process arrived after a transformative experience with EMDR. This experience allowed me to shift my perspective and future in ways I didn’t have access to before.I realized my willingness to say the quiet part of oppression out loud, specializing in success during pain, and my unique post-traumatic growth (PTG) perspective, could sustain what I wanted to offer. I couldn't be more grateful to be doing what I'm doing, even when it is difficult or seems impossible.
Those closest to me know I live a contemplative, simple life while cherishing moments with my chosen family and friends; near and far. Originally from the stolen lands of the Choctaw Nation (Mississippi), I am a disabled veteran, white-bodied, NDGQ, and have lived-experience with post-traumatic growth. Dancing, meditation, reality t.v., reading, and reminding you of your agency are some of my current interests.
