Barbara Sprayregen

My communication style

I offer a warm, grounded, and thoughtful presence. I listen closely and compassionately, and I also ask meaningful questions, offer observations, and suggest tools or homework to help you continue processing new awarenesses between sessions. I am both supportive and direct.

My journey to mental healthcare

I began my career as an art therapist. I later pursued doctoral training to increase my knowledge base. I found both art therapy and talk therapy to be invaluable ways for accessing and articulating feelings. I enjoy helping clients find their voices and discover what matters most in their lives.

My goals for you

I will collaborate with you to identify, clarify, and work towards your goals. My aim is for you to feel more empowered, grounded, and connected to your inner wisdom. I would like therapy to help you move through life with greater self-understanding, self-compassion, confidence, and vitality.

Our first session

We'll explore what's bringing you into therapy and what you hope to achieve. I'll ask about your current concerns, relevant personal history, and any previous experiences with therapy. This helps us identify your goals and determine how we might work together. It's also a chance for you to get a sense of my style and ask questions.

I identify as...

• Female
• Caucasian or White
• Non-denominational, Spiritual
