About Zen + Zest Therapy Services
The name Zen + Zest was born from a deep belief in balance.
Zen speaks to calm, grounding, and the space to breathe — something so many of us crave in the midst of emotional chaos. It reflects the safety and steadiness we aim to offer in every session.
Zest brings the spark — the energy, the vitality, the will to keep going, even when things feel dark. It’s the part of us that still wants to grow, connect, and heal.
At Zen + Zest, we hold both.
We honor the stillness and the struggle.
The quiet moments and the courageous ones.
The need to slow down and the desire to come back to life.
Therapy here is not one-size-fits-all. It’s a warm, collaborative process rooted in presence, compassion, and your unique strengths.
Here’s what you can expect when we work together:
Therapy at Zen + Zest is not clinical or cold — it’s human, heart-centered, and real.
Every therapist at Zen + Zest has been intentionally chosen for their expertise in helping people through life’s most challenging seasons. We are a team of clinicians who know how to sit with the heavy, the uncertain, and the complicated — and help you move through it.
Personalized, Collaborative Care
No cookie-cutter therapy here. We tailor each session to your needs, pace, and preferences. You're the expert in your life — we're here to co-create the path forward with you.
Open, Honest Conversations
We believe in showing up authentically — which means you'll always get a real human, not just a nod and a clipboard. Expect compassion, curiosity, and the occasional well-timed challenge.
Warm, Safe Space
Whether we’re meeting virtually, in-person, in your home, or outdoors, we prioritize creating a space that feels inviting, judgment-free, and deeply respectful of your lived experience.
Insight That Leads To Actions
We don’t just talk about what’s hard — we explore how you can shift, heal, and move forward with clarity. We help you translate insight into real-life transformation.
