1:1 Ecological Companioning | Symbiont Work

tending the inner ecosystem with the wisdom of the natural world

1:1 work mirrors dyads in nature: two beings forming a temporary, attuned, mutually space of exchange, and exploration. As mammals navigating shifting seasons of life, shedding old skins, renewal, aging, change, and migrating through diverse physical and psychological landscapes. Living is about compost and decay as much as it is about growth and becoming.

In this space, we diversify and expand ideas of “fixing” and shift instead toward relating, and being-with, following subtle trails of what wants to move, settle, or emerge. We learn to be with whatever rises to the surface, trusting the organism’s inherent wisdom.

Ecological companioning is not therapy. It offers a corridor: a place for ecologizing the psyche and exploring the inner terrain (and subterranean worlds) it moves through. Together we attune to thresholds, listen for signals of inner and outer ecologies, and tend what is composting, gestating, dissolving, or calling for air and movement. The natural world becomes a teacher in expression — in how we molt, erupt, soften, or lie fallow.

This work supports transitions, composting phases, migrations, initiations, or simply a place to rest, breathe, and reorient within the vast web of life. If this resonates, I’d be honored to companion the journey.

With a background in ecological psychology and training as a future LPC, my 1:1 Symbionts sessions offer a grounded, ethical, and nature-informed coaching container. My work is grounded on the understanding that humans are not isolated organisms; we are relational beings embedded within living systems, and the more we understand the natural world, the better we might understand or completely revision ourselves.

Exploring ecological principles such as mutualism, co-regulation, and nested systems, we explore how internal patterns, emotional states, and relational habits emerge from (and can be reshaped through) the environments we inhabit. Where body, meaning, and ecology entangle we can learn to cultivate practices of connection, increasing capacity, and supporting a more relational and organismic sense of self.

This is not clinical mental health treatment, but a collaborative process of ecological meaning-making and embodied awareness; offered with clarity, respect, and care.
