  • Anxiety, panic, or hypervigilance
  • Shame, guilt, or self-blame
  • Depression or emotional numbness
  • Difficulty trusting others
  • Challenges with intimacy or touch
  • Flashbacks or intrusive memories
  • Avoidance of reminders or situations
  • Trouble sleeping or chronic tension
  • Feeling disconnected from your body
  • Self-esteem struggles or self-criticism
  • Emotional overwhelm or shutdown
  • Difficulty with relationships or boundaries

  • Rebuilding safety in your body and nervous system
  • Reducing triggers and emotional overwhelm
  • Understanding and softening shame or self-blame

Evidence-Based Treatments We Use

Evidence-Based Treatments
We Use

Our therapists draw from several trusted therapeutic approaches to support healing, clarity, and emotional wellbeing. Depending on your needs, your therapist may integrate:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Helps you understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors so you can build healthier patterns and reduce distress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Supports you in noticing unhelpful thoughts, staying grounded in the present, and making choices based on your personal values.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Teaches skills for emotion regulation, grounding, communication, and managing overwhelming moments more calmly.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Focuses on your strengths, resources, and what is working to help you move forward with small, meaningful steps.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing)

A structured trauma therapy that helps the brain process painful memories in a safe, controlled way without needing to retell every detail.

Integrated, Whole-Person Care

We combine these approaches thoughtfully to match your goals, your pace, and what feels most supportive to your nervous system.
