About Me
guiding hearts
kestrel neathawk
I am a psychotherapist, astrologer, and nurturing guide on the path to remembering our wholeness.
I have been a licensed professional counselor, offering services in the Boulder Community for 14 years, including community mental health, primary care and private practice.
As an intuitive soul, I facilitate clients of all ages through a transformative and empowering process that results in meaningful integration, alignment to calling, and a curiosity around personal and interpersonal depth.
My aim is to serve clients who are awakening to their innermost authenticity and truth. My work is informed by evidenced-based practices, astrology, myth, transpersonal methodologies and Ecopsychology.
Expertise
Licensed professional counseling
Whether you’re experiencing chronic depression or life transitions, my sessions help clients to internally resource and activate the strength needed to navigate all that life offers.
I believe that a crisis or challenge is an opportunity for something new to emerge, increasing our abilities to manage uncertainty and discomfort. I work with clients to collaboratively create an empowering vision of their life by discovering clarity and alignment with goals, values and passions.
I love to invite courageous and life enhancing conversations, re-evaluation of old narratives, reigniting our fullest capacities, and healthy risk taking while also encouraging a combination of self-love, gentleness, innovation and action.
specialization
cosmic & transpersonal psychology
My approach is to attune to you through deep listening while considering the constellation of your past experiences, dreams, family of origin, history of trauma, and current life events that have a bearing and impact on the moment, while also keeping in mind the significance of your presenting symptoms, concerns, hopes and desires.
My sensitivity to intuitive dimensions assists in answering deep questions about the meaning of life’s challenges, individual purpose, and extends to the collective and my wish for positive social change.
I provide the therapeutic space necessary to mindfully observe and behold the subjective experience of my clients, skillfully shining light on the unseen, invisible, and unconscious patterns that hold clients back from feeling baseline wholeness and taking empowering and life-affirming steps.
My Story
Kestrel neathawk
As a child, I was described as kind, endearing and ethereal. I have always felt most comfortable in one-on-one interactions, being held by nature, and adventure in wild places. I revel in the company of solace, guardian animals, and powerful language.
In high school, I would spend hours in the Black Forest of Southern Colorado running with my setter, contemplating the mysteries of the Cosmos, and practicing falconry with my father.
I daydreamed about the best way I could be of service to the collective and what contributed most to positive social change.
In College, I had an insatiable drive for climbing and alpinism as a vehicle for personal growth and connecting to something larger than myself before returning to graduate school to further deepen my studies in Psychology.
I graduated from Naropa University…
…in 1999 and Prescott College in 2006 with a degree in Counseling Psychology. My foundation is in evidenced-based practices and multidisciplinary settings, including community mental health and primary care, however after a client introduced me to the potential/magic of astrology in 2015, I completed an Exploring Astrology Apprenticeship in 2018.
As a result of incorporating astrology, myth and other eclectic modalities, my practice has been infused with joy and has provided an additional lens of support in the process of transformation, beyond more conventional and standardized styles of treatment. I believe that each of us have come here to fulfill a unique journey of evolution, and my goal is to help you remember what your spirit has come here to do.
