Services We Offer
individual therapy
Have people told you you're "not yourself" lately? Are you finding it hard to enjoy the things you used to love? Are you stressing about a recent or upcoming life/job/family change? Are you hoping to get some non-biased insight on your life from a professional? Wondering why your relationships just don't seem to be working out? No matter how big or small the issue may be, I am here to guide you through and help you develop the skills and tools necessary to tackle life's everyday challenges as well as unexpected changes.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)- I am trained to utilize this evidence-based therapy that helps client process traumatic and/or distressing memories and emotions. By stimulating the brain's natural healing process through rapid eye movements and other bilateral stimulation methods, I am able to help clients release unhelpful emotions and move towards stronger emotional resilience. EMDR is commonly used for the following issues: PTSD, anxiety, depression, and many more.
-I offer weekend intensive EMDR sessions for clients who are looking to make significant progress in shorter amounts of time. Intensives are particularly helpful for clients who are dealing with sudden trauma or have limited time to commit to ongoing therapy. *Note- this option is self-pay only.
couples therapy
Are you feeling stuck in your relationship? Have one or both of you tossed around the dreaded D-word (divorce)? Do you feel like you no longer know the person you married? Do you miss that honeymoon feeling? Let’s work together to rekindle those romantic feelings, learn to effectively communicate during both every day and large-scale conflicts, and improve intimacy.
Couples therapy can help:
- Rebuild trust, security and faith in the relationship
- Allow each partner to learn ways to better express their wants and needs to their partner, and to receive their partner’s wants and needs in more productive ways
- if all partners genuinely want to be there and put the work in
- if all partners are willing to be fully honest and transparent
- if all partners are open to sitting with discomfort and hearing feedback they may not like
- if all partners are committed to working on the relationship outside of our sessions (fair warning- I love giving homework assignments, and they are usually fun ones!)
Gottman Method- I am trained in this evidence based couples therapy to help clients disarm conflicting verbal communication, increase intimacy, improve respect for one another, strengthen affection, and create a heightened sense of empathy and understanding with one another.
-I offer weekend intensive Gottman-focused sessions for couples who are looking to make significant progress in shorter amounts of time. Intensives are particularly helpful for couples who are committed to saving their relationship but have limited time to commit to ongoing therapy. *Note- this option is self-pay only.
