My practice exists on the ancenstral lands of the Saura, Catawba, Keyauwee and Sissipahaw peoples.  I recognize and honor the enslaved people and their descendants whose hardship funded the buildings where my practice currently sits. 

In acknowledgment of this history, I make regular donations to reparation funds as a part of my practice in dismantling unconscious, systemic racism.

Welcome! 

Let me introduce myself.  My given name is Cristin but I go by True.  My pronouns are she/her.

I strive to provide a safe, affirming and inclusive environment where people of all backgrounds, identities and abilities are welcome.  I continue to educate myself on the topic of diversity and inclusion and seek to understand where I do not.

The healing philosophy I work through is called transpersonal psychology.  Transpersonal psychology explores the human experience beyond our sense of our self.  It includes the exploration of a spiritual consciousness in its most general sense and a relationship to that which is greater than oneself.  How that is defined and known varies from person to person.  For some that exists inside of a religious framework, for others it exists in relationship to nature, and for still others it includes a cosmology that is unique.  I also work with those who don't  have a relationship with spirituality, grounding instead in concepts such as their experience of love and living.

What really works about this approach, is that it is a practice that believes that our true nature is one of wholeness

 

It makes room for curiosity, compassion and creativity--and I have found both in my personal journey and through working with others, that is a gentle yet powerful place from which to heal.  When we are in pain, it is sometimes hard to hold a view of our innate connectedness, which is why it is useful to work with another who can hold this vision for us.

From a practical standpoint, my therapeutic approach incorporates talk therapy with the wisdom of the body and well as the use of healing journeys, meditation and creativity.

Feel free to browse my training and experience here to learn more.  Please keep in mind, this is not an exhaustive list but a sample of the kinds of topics that have interested me over the years.
