Attachment Theory

Understanding Attachment Theory is a vital component of healthy relationships in our lives. Awareness of your own attachment styles can lead to profound growth in your interactions.

Gestalt

Gestalt therapy highlights the adaptations we have made throughout our lives to cope with our emotional environments. These adaptations are often outside of our consciousness. Bringing awareness to ways of being that no longer serve us can facilitate deep healing and insights.

Mindfulness-based

Mindfulness rests in our capacity to ground ourselves in present awareness. Anxiety emphasizes angst about the future and depression lies in concern with the past. It is only in the present moment that we have any agency. Cultivating mindfulness can nurture tremendous acceptance of what is and peace in our lives.

Somatic Therapy (Body Centered)

Somatic therapy is incredibly beneficial to healing trauma. Trauma is unprocessed emotion stored in the body. It is the thinking mind that creates our often inaccurate narrative of our lives and experiences, but it is the body that rests in truth. Through somatic or body awareness, we can make our way beyond the thinking mind and into our felt sense, accessing deep healing and fostering self-trust.

Transpersonal

The word "transpersonal" literally means "beyond the personal." Transpersonal psychology takes a step back to look at the whole or our sense of connection to something larger than ourselves – maybe nature, humanity, a sense of the sacred, or even just a feeling of awe and wonder, experiences that give life a deeper sense of meaning and purpose. They could be spiritual in nature, moments of profound insight, or times when we feel a strong sense of unity or interconnectedness.
