Annalise Oatman
Clinical Social Worker/Therapist -
(Call me to ask about joining my wait list!) I love helping artists and those who feel a strong creative pull to find ways to forge ahead in their real life’s work. My approach is spiritually-oriented, intuitive and compassionate. My approach is also integrative, in the sense that I draw on a number of evidence-based approaches (from mindfulness-based CBT to EMDR) and enrich my approach with lots of awareness of depth/Jungian psychology and transpersonal psychology. Since my approach is very trauma-informed, I will look at the way that early life trauma and/or attachment injuries are being repeated or keeping you frozen in the present, in any area of your life. Sometimes what seems to be in the way can actually be the golden road to heaps of insight, and healing.
I also offer Psychedelic Integration for anyone who has experienced an entheogen-induced non-ordinary state of consciousness outside of my office, and before our work together began. These experiences can be profound and life-transformative, and they can also bring up a lot of stuff, or alter the sense of self in a lingering way. In these instances, assistance with integration is absolutely indicated.
