Does it feel like you’re living in a world that doesn’t make space for you - the real you - yet asks so much of you?
-
Maybe you know why that is, maybe you don’t and want to understand it better. It’s hard to fit in with others while also feeling true to yourself. You struggle to find connection. You feel like you’re handling everything all on your own.
-
Life is always changing, and so are you as you learn more about yourself. Changes of any kind, even good ones, can be a struggle as you adapt to new demands. Sometimes the change happens to someone you care about - but it still affects you. You feel anxious, overwhelmed, hopeless, and lost in it all.
-
You’re trying your best, but none of it feels authentic. You might be performing to others’ expectations and getting by but it’s like you’re living on autopilot. You want your days to feel meaningful and worthwhile.
-
You feel overwhelmed all and have no idea where to even start to make a change. You’ve tried to cope. You've followed the advice people gave you. But nothing has really worked.
You want a plan that feels like it can really happen, that gives you hope and feels true to you.
-
You’re managing as best you can and you’re there for everyone else while trying to seem like you’ve got it all together. But hurtful thoughts creep in and it feels like your emotions are boiling under the surface, ready to erupt. You try to keep it all under control, but it’s just so exhausting.
-
You’re reliable and people tell you that you’re so strong, but you don’t really feel like it. You’re always there for others but feel alone in your own struggles. You tell yourself you don’t want to burden them with your problems when they’ve got their own. If only you could talk to someone who really listens instead of throwing you useless platitudes and bad advice. Someone who would take the time to understand you and what you’re going through.
There is a path forward. I’m here to walk it with you.
I see you and the ways that you are different and celebrate the real you - and I want you to feel like you can celebrate yourself as well.
But I also see the ways you’re struggling, because I’ve had similar struggles.
Together, we’ll create a space where you can tap into your true self, your strengths, your unique outlooks, and your way of doing things to empower you. We’ll go beyond the breathy reflections and questions of “how did that make you feel” to challenge you to grow. But we’ll do it in a way that makes you feel safe, supported, and - most of all - makes sense to you!
Our work will look at your challenges and goals from a holistic perspective that integrates mind, body, heart, social connection, and spirit or human growth.
Together, we’ll help you do more of what works for you and less of what doesn’t so that you can craft a life that feels authentic and worth living.
Specialties at MoonPath Counseling
LGBTQ+ Affirming Therapy
Opening up to therapists is hard enough without the fear that you will be judged for who you are and how you experience yourself, your attractions, and your relationships. Having a therapist who personally understands the unique stressors of being LGBTQ+ in our world can put the focus where it belongs - on you as a human being.
Life Changes
Adjusting to change is hard, even positive changes. It affects every area of your life including your physical, mental, emotional, social, and personal wellbeing. Counseling can help you manage stress, tap into your personal values, and develop a plan to help you to feel confident in your ability to handle whatever comes your way.
Men’s Issues
The world tells you to suppress your feelings but doesn’t tell you how to manage those feelings. It’s like trying to win a game when you don’t know the rules. But you get to make up your own rules. You can learn to worry less about what society expects and focus more on being the person you want to be.
Disability and Caregiving
Disability can turn the world upside-down for everyone involved. You’re overwhelmed by grief and struggling to adapt. But you can create a new life worth living. It’s not a question of if it can be done, but how can it be done differently?
Therapy at MoonPath.
Based in Fayetteville, Arkansas, I provide online counseling across Arkansas to allow you to make the time for the therapy that’s important to you. No commutes, no waiting rooms with canned music, and the comfort of familiar surroundings. I offer this service to also support my kindreds in the LGBTQ+ and nature-centered spiritual communities who live in small towns where there may be no one local you can trust to support you with understanding and confidentiality. I also do Walk-Talk therapy at Kessler Mountain Regional Park in Fayetteville, Arkansas to bring nature into the counseling circle and all of the amazing things it has to offer.

Are we a good fit?
You’ve tried other ways of coping, read self-help books, and maybe tried other therapists but none of it has really worked so far. Not in a way that really speaks to you or has led to lasting change or you probably wouldn’t be looking at this site, right?
That’s probably because a lot of what’s out there is designed for the “average person” based on some composite idea of what it is to be “normal.”
But you’re not average. You’re exceptional! You don’t want “normal.” You want to be you!
And, between you and me, “normal” isn’t anything but a setting on a dryer.
We might work together well if:
You’re ready to challenge yourself to look at the things that cannot be changed and start working on the things that can be changed.
You want compassionate accountability for your goals.
You want a space to be unapologetically you and weave your authentic self into your healing journey - whether that’s that’s geekish, freakish, nerdy, queer, witchy, or you just need to be able to cuss up a storm.
You want a space for laughter as well as tears that can acknowledge that even “dark humor” can be healing.
You need a space to talk about things that you fear many people, even therapists, might judge you for such as sex, kink, and polyamory.
You have things you find helpful that others might consider unconventional - such as “therapeutic OCs” (original characters), storytelling, deep nature connection, or earth-based spiritual practices.
Start living life on your terms.
