Approach to Therapy

We are direct and compassionate — guiding you through challenge and shouldering you through the healing process.

Our approach is grounded in a holistic approach to bring your life balance.

We focus on building a life that aligns with your values and the life you want to have, looking at the unique way you learned to survive.

We work collaboratively, meaning therapy is shaped around your needs.

We meet you where you are — whether you are deep in trauma recovery or trying to function after a hard season.

Together, we sort through what matters, build on your strengths, and help you shift in a way that fits your values, rather than forcing you into someone else’s idea of “normal.”

The goal is lasting change that is grounded in your values.

    Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

    EMDR is a therapeutic process that helps your brain reprocess distressing experiences, reducing their emotional intensity. Through this method, you begin to feel calmer, safer, and more in control of your emotions.

    Utilizing a structured 8-phase approach, we carefully and collaboratively explore the experiences impacting your life. This process assists your brain in properly “filing” these memories, preventing them from disrupting your present well-being.

    EMDR is a gentle, steady journey that not only diminishes emotional disturbance but also strengthens your resilience for the future.

    Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT)

    SFT helps you cut through the noise and focus on what actually moves your life forward. Instead of getting stuck in the problem, we zoom in on what builds success, and we build from there. SFT keeps you future-focused, action-oriented, and moving toward the version of yourself you want to become.

    You learn to identify what’s helping, what’s possible, and what small steps you can take right now to create change. We turn those steps into momentum, and momentum into real shifts in your daily life. SFT helps you break patterns, adapt faster, and take charge of your own progress, one clear and purposeful step at a time.

    Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

    ACT helps you stop getting pushed around by painful thoughts and emotions so you can make choices based on your values—not your fear, not your stress, not your past. You learn to notice what your mind throws at you without getting hooked by it, and to take actions that actually line up with the life you want.

    This work involves mindfulness skills, clarifying your core values, and building psychological flexibility—the ability to stay grounded and move forward even when things are uncomfortable. ACT helps you break old avoidance patterns, handle stress with more clarity, and take purposeful steps toward a life that feels meaningful, not reactive.
