Therapeutic
Treatment

A science-backed, holistic, and integrative approach to help meet your individual needs.

Person-centered therapy

Relational depth and trust matters. As your therapist, I will never assume to know better for your life than you do. I aim to listen empathetically to your thoughts, feelings, and life experiences without judgement.

EMDR

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing is a highly researched and backed method of trauma treatment. EMDR helps release what your body has been holding onto after experiencing trauma and improve self-beliefs.

Narrative therapy

The stories we tell ourselves shape and influence us and may even contribute to feeling stuck. Narrative therapy explores your strengths and separates you from problems that life can bring with curiosity, openness, and care.

Family systems lens

Even in individual therapy, the context of your life matters. This includes the people in it, your community at large, and the roles you hold within your environment!

Compassion focused

Developing skills to be compassionate towards yourself enhances your own well-being and your relationships with others, but it can feel daunting when we feel judged by the world and don't live up to our own ideals in our heads.

Trauma-informed

Regain power and avoid re-traumatization within the therapeutic setting. Safety, choice, trust, and empowerment are ensured in session by your therapist through sensitivity and knowledge of trauma's impacts.

Cognitive behavioral therapy

CBT looks at how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and impact your life. We then work on changing one element, like our thought, to help influence more positive outcomes on our feelings and behaviors.

Parts work

Parts work considers the different facets of your personality, roles you hold, and the functions of stuck emotions or behaviors. Parts work helps develop acceptance of the whole self and reduce internal conflict and turmoil.
