Dr. Diane Hoekstra

My passion is to work with men and women who are searching for their identity, purpose and the life they truly want. I have specialized expertise in working with Trauma and Complex Trauma, Perinatal Mood Disorders, Womens' Issues Across the Lifespan, Anxiety and Depression.

I specialize in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, a mind-body approach that integrates neuroscience, somatic awareness, and compassionate talk therapy. I work intuitively and holistically, supporting clients in emotional, psychological, and spiritual growth and healing through a gentle, trauma-informed lens

With a client's consent, I invite spiritual exploration and teach them how to develop their own in-born intuition. My goal is to help clients become aware of their internal experience, to listen deeply to their own wisdom and to make the changes they want to make in their lives. I believe we live in a coherent universe that is supporting us and that we are here to learn, heal, grow and become who we are truly meant to be at our core.

I am a humanistic therapist who believes deeply in the power of the therapeutic relationship to help clients heal and transform. In my work, I attune to client's story, emotions and non-verbal communication so that client's feel deeply seen and heard.

In the first session, we will review your history and define your goals for therapy. It is also a time to ask any questions you might have concerning how I work in therapy. The first three or so sessions are an opportunity to determine if we are a good fit, which is so important to the therapy process.
