Nola Nordmarken, MFT

Ms. Nordmarken’s approach is focused on assisting clients in their exploration and actualization of personal potential. She assists clients in honoring and integrating elements of body, mind and spirit through her approach. To that end, she utilizes elements of somatic psychotherapy from a theoretical framework that is generally adapted from object relations therapy. The use of art, movement, music and other creative art forms enhance the experience of this process.
