As a therapist I embrace change, empowering lives.

I believe at the core of our being, we desire connection with ourselves and others. In my practice, I prioritize creating a sense of acceptance, wholeness, and self-compassion to help you make peace with judgment and criticism. My intention is to support you in finding a deeper connection with yourself to live a more fulfilling life. Together, we will dig deep, explore, and grow through all of your experiences.

I bring a truly unique and encompassing approach that incorporates science, soul, somatics, psychology, and spirituality to help you best connect with your inner self.

As your therapist, my role is not to have all the answers or to tell you what to do. Instead, I see myself as a collaborative guide, here to support and encourage you on your healing journey. I value and respect you, I believe that you have the wisdom within you to find your own path to healing.

 

I partner with you to make space for new, healthier ways of moving through the world and being in a relationship with yourself + others.

Navigating The Human Experience

Medina Colaku, Heal with Medina

As a human

Being able to connect with your therapist or coach is an essential part of your healing journey. For this reason, I want to share with you exactly what makes me feel human:

  • Being emerged in nature, soaking up the sun & admiring the trees, feeling the sun on my skin — I’m my best self when I’m outside.

  • Planning and caring for my vegetable and flower garden.

  • Listening to Emo Punk, and 90’s alternative but mostly Taylor Swift and Noah Kahan.

  • Long walks and losing track of time with my Siberian Husky’s, Benji and Lila and my Fiancee.

  • Hunting for unique vintage antiques and uncovering every box in each thrift store I step into.

  • Honoring my body by practicing Brazilian Ju Jitsu to maintain my inner balance (#BlueBeltClub).

  • Spending time understanding astrology, how it effects and drives me as a Capricorn Sun, Sag Rising and Aries moon.
