Services

Individual Therapy

Our individual therapy sessions create a safe space for personal growth and healing. Using neuroscience-informed approaches, we help clients address anxiety, depression, and trauma through modalities like EMDR and Somatic Experiencing. Each session focuses on developing self-awareness, processing past experiences, and building emotional resilience. Our therapists tailor treatment plans to meet individual needs while emphasizing the connection between mind, body, and relationships.

Couples Counseling

Couples counseling addresses relationship challenges through evidence-based methods like Relational Life Therapy and Gottman techniques. We help partners improve communication, resolve conflicts, and rebuild trust while exploring how past experiences shape current dynamics. Sessions focus on creating emotional safety, enhancing intimacy, and developing shared goals. Our trauma-informed approach supports couples in navigating life transitions and strengthening their connection.

Trauma Recovery

Trauma recovery services utilize specialized therapies including EMDR and Somatic Experiencing to process traumatic memories and reduce distress. We help clients develop coping strategies, restore emotional regulation, and rebuild a sense of safety. Our approach addresses both recent and complex trauma through body-centered techniques and neuroscience principles. Treatment focuses on integrating traumatic experiences while empowering clients to reclaim their lives.

EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy accelerates trauma processing through guided eye movements and bilateral stimulation. This evidence-based approach helps clients reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional impact. Sessions follow an eight-phase protocol addressing past experiences, present triggers, and future goals. We combine EMDR with relational therapy to enhance treatment outcomes for PTSD, anxiety, and other trauma-related conditions.

Interpersonal Process Groups

Our process groups create a supportive community for shared healing experiences. Participants explore relational patterns, practice new communication skills, and gain insights through group interactions. Facilitators use neuroscience principles to guide discussions on emotional regulation and attachment dynamics. Groups focus on personal growth, trauma recovery, and developing authentic connections in a structured, therapeutic environment.
