Guiding purpose

Treatment Focus

Guiding purpose

To be there for you every step of your journey.  To help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.  

Empathic Counseling

An eclectic approach will be used to best suit your specific needs. A blend of mindfulness, Psychodynamic therapy, and Somatic EMDR is utilized. A "bottom -up" approach is utilized to allow us to explore the dysregulated nervous system once safety and stability are established. This approach helps us work to answer the questions "Why is this happening to me? What caused these behaviors and/or survival mechanisms to take over? What is the root cause?"

Who may benefit from this approach?

Those suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, and PTSD.

Those suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, and PTSD.

Being a highly sensitive person can feel like a weakness or burden. The constant overwhelming stimuli, emotional reactions, and exhaustion may make it feel this way. The opposite is true! Allow yourself to begin healing and understanding yourself so that you may use your unique sensitivity, that you have been gifted, to grow and be your true self, utilizing it the way you were meant to!

PEOPLE WITH NEURODIVERGENT BRAINS

Those with chronic physical and emotional pain.

It is essential for those with neurodivergence to have support in someone who understands the many ways this can effect your life. As we work together, you will learn ways to take off your "mask" and live in a way that is authentic to who you are and what your brain and body needs.

Those with chronic physical and emotional pain.

Chronic physical pain often creates a plethora of emotional issues. Our brain is wired to get our attention when something is not right. Often, these cries for help are ignored or are not understood. Take the next step in understanding the pain and healing yourself!

Couple's Therapy

relationship issues

Couples often find it difficult to navigate life transitions. Some couples lack effective communication, hold resentments, and struggle to break from unhelpful patterns. Relationships can be healed through working through past attachment issues, learning to regulate emotions, repairing emotional wounds, and strengthening the bond.
