EMDR-trained clinician
For trauma and distressing life experiences
Therapy Approaches
Therapy tailored to the
person,
not the model.
There are many ways to get to the same place in therapy. We draw from research-supported approaches, but finding what works for you is individual.
Before any theory or technique matters, you need to feel safe, understood, and not judged. It's our job to create that environment.
From there, we work together to understand what you're experiencing and choose the approaches and tools that fit you.
Understanding What's Happening
Understanding can be part of changing.
Understanding why you think, feel, or respond a certain way can make change feel more possible. We use psychoeducation informed by cognitive psychology and neuroscience to help you understand what may be happening in your brain and nervous system—not just what you're experiencing.
Our brains learn through experience. Patterns that are repeated can become increasingly automatic, including patterns of attention, interpretation, emotional response, and behavior. Through neuroplasticity, those patterns can also change.
Therapy can help you recognize patterns your brain has learned and intentionally practice different responses, giving your brain opportunities to build new patterns over time.
You don't have to fight your brain. You can understand how it learned to respond—and give it something new to learn.

A Collaborative Process
You bring your experience.
We bring perspective and tools.
You bring your experience and knowledge of yourself. We bring psychological knowledge, psychoeducation, and practical tools to help make sense of what is happening and why.
Together, we use that understanding to identify what can change and practice new ways of responding—at a pace that feels right for you.
Research-supported treatment matters. So does having a therapist you feel safe with—someone you can talk to without feeling judged.
