Our Specialties Overview
Specialties That Reflect the Full Human Journey
At NATIVation Counseling, we honor the full spectrum of human experience—grief, trauma, identity, anxiety, and spiritual disconnection. Our specialties reflect the real, raw challenges our clients face and the truth they’re returning to. Whether you’re navigating personal pain or collective trauma, we offer healing that’s culturally grounded, clinically informed, and spiritually attuned. This is more than symptom management—it’s restoration of mind, body, and spirit.
Trauma & PTSD
From Surviving to Reclaiming
We work with trauma that lives in the body, spirit, and lineage.
Healing Complex Trauma and PTSD
Trauma isn’t just something that happened in the past—it’s something that lives in the body, mind, and spirit long after the event. Whether you’re experiencing flashbacks, hypervigilance, dissociation, or a deep sense of emotional numbness, we see your pain and honor your resilience.
At NATIVation Counseling, we specialize in treating complex trauma, PTSD, and intergenerational wounds using a culturally grounded, somatic, and ceremony-informed approach. You’re not broken; your responses make sense. And healing is possible.
- We use EMDR, somatic therapy, and ceremony to help you safely process traumatic experiences

- We create a safe space to explore the impact of complex, developmental, and intergenerational trauma
- You will be supported through a structured healing journey designed to restore safety, identity, and empowerment
Depression Therapy
From Disconnection to Renewal
Reconnect with your purpose, spirit, and joy.
Depression Care with Mind-Body-Spirit Focus
Depression can show up as sadness or as emptiness, fatigue, irritability, or simply feeling nothing at all. It’s more than a mood—it’s often a sign of spiritual disconnection, unresolved pain, or burnout from navigating systems not built for your thriving.
Our approach to depression centers on reconnection: with your body, your truth, your community, and your purpose. Through talk therapy, breathwork, ceremony, and energetic healing, we help clients move from isolation to meaning, and from survival to renewal.
- We help clients understand the emotional and spiritual roots of depression—not just the symptoms
- Our therapists use a combination of talk therapy, breathwork, and body-based practices to support emotional healing
- You’ll learn tools to reconnect with joy, purpose, and your sense of self
- We honor depression as a call for deeper care, not a personal failure

Where All of You Is Welcome
Therapy that affirms and empowers every part of who you are.
Affirming Therapy for LGBTQ+ and Two-Spirit Clients
Your identity is sacred, and you deserve a healing space where every part of you is welcomed, affirmed, and celebrated. We understand that for LGBTQIA+ and Two-Spirit individuals, therapy isn’t just about mental health; it’s about navigating systems of harm, reclaiming joy, and rewriting narratives.
Here at NATIVation Counseling, we offer culturally attuned, spiritually affirming, and deeply compassionate care for those venturing down paths of gender exploration, queer identity, and intersectional healing. You don’t have to carry it alone.

Anxiety & Stress

Calming the Nervous System
Anxiety isn’t just in your head—it’s often your body remembering what it was like not to feel safe. No matter if you’re dealing with chronic stress, racing thoughts, panic, perfectionism, or freeze responses, our work begins with the nervous system and expands into the soul.
We help you find grounded, culturally supportive ways to regulate your energy, quiet the mind, and create internal safety. Anxiety might feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to run your life.

Grief & Life Transitions
Grief Is a Journey—We Walk With You

Navigating Death, Divorce, and Identity Shifts
Grief is not something to “get over.” It’s a sacred process of mourning, remembering, and eventually integrating what has been lost. Whether you’re grieving the death of a loved one, a cultural disconnection, a relationship, or a part of yourself, we offer gentle, culturally grounded support that honors your emotions and your pace.
Life transitions can feel like death and rebirth all at once. We make space for the pain and the path forward.
