I’m so glad you're here.

At Shoreline Counseling, Nathan understands that life's storms can sometimes leave you feeling adrift. Whether you're an adolescent navigating the turbulent waters of growing up or an adult struggling to find your way through sex addiction, depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, or identity challenges, you've found a safe harbor here.

My specialized approach helps individuals find freedom from old patterns, shame, and limiting labels that have kept them tethered to painful pasts. Just as the shoreline represents that place of stability after battling the waves, our therapy offers a path back to solid ground.

My approach is rooted in empowerment, autonomy, and self-compassion, integrating somatic experiencing, Internal Family Systems Theory, and Brainspotting techniques that allow healing to happen beyond words. Through a gentle, body-led process, I guide clients toward deeper self-awareness, emotional resilience, and the ability to truly enjoy life again.

If you're ready to navigate toward calmer waters and rediscover the strength that lies within you, I’m here to support your journey
