Services
Trauma and PTSD Therapy
Specialized treatment for trauma and PTSD using somatic techniques to release trapped emotional energy. Our approach combines Brainspotting, EMDR, and nervous system regulation to address symptoms like flashbacks, hypervigilance, and emotional numbness. Clients learn to process traumatic memories safely while developing grounding tools for daily life.
Couples Counseling
Evidence-based therapy to strengthen relationships through Emotionally Focused Therapy and Gottman Method techniques. We help couples improve communication, rebuild trust after infidelity, and break destructive interaction patterns. Sessions focus on fostering emotional connection and developing conflict resolution skills tailored to each partnership's needs.
LGBTQ+ Therapy
Affirming mental health support for LGBTQ+ individuals addressing identity exploration, discrimination stress, and minority stress-related anxiety. Therapy incorporates trauma-informed care to process stigma-related experiences while promoting self-acceptance and resilience. Services include both individual and couples counseling for queer and trans clients.
Brainspotting Therapy
Neurobiological treatment for trauma that accesses subcortical brain regions through eye position tracking. This technique helps release trapped trauma energy without re-experiencing distress, effectively treating PTSD, anxiety, and chronic pain conditions. Sessions incorporate bilateral music to enhance brain hemisphere integration and nervous system regulation.
EMDR Therapy
Proven method for processing traumatic memories using guided eye movements to rewire negative thought patterns. EMDR effectively reduces symptoms of PTSD, panic disorders, and performance anxiety by reprocessing distressing events in a controlled therapeutic environment. Sessions follow standardized protocols for safe trauma resolution.
