Jill 'Soffia' Kivikko, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
“…Helping individuals and couples find their way from lonliness, loss, and transition to meaning, connection and love…”
ARE YOU STRUGGLING with depression, anxiety, chronic health concerns, isolation, grief, or the continuing effects of past trauma? Do you or your partner frequently feel misunderstood or alone in your relationship and need help with issues such as lack of intimacy, strained communication, or infidelity? If you are seeking deeper meaning in life, needing support through life transitions, or seeking greater connection in your relationship, you’ve come to the right place!
When working with you as an individual or couple, I seek to understand your unique circumstance and then custom-select an integrated set of tools, drawn from traditional and cutting-edge therapies, to help you reach your goals. By integrating the latest scientific knowledge about the mind with experiential, somatic, and intuitive ways of knowing, I can help you deepen your understanding and your healing. In therapy I utilize techniques grounded in interpersonal neurobiology (IPNB), attachment science, emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), the Gottman method, somatic psychology, EMDR, and parts work. My experience in natural health, eco-therapy, and mindfulness may also inform our work together. My style is empathic, creative, and attuned yet also active and deep.
If you are ready to make some changes to feel better and more connected in your life, call to arrange a free 15-20 minute phone consultation. I truly look forward to talking with you!
