• Accelerated Resolution Therapy

  ART utilizes similar approaches to trauma healing as EMDR but in a shorter time frame. Clients will be directed to replace negative memory images with more positive images of their choosing - effectively eliminating the negative charge that these memories hold.

• Family Systems

  A form of psychotherapy that helps individuals resolve their problems in the context of their family units, where many issues are likely to begin. This is the first stop in working to understand and contextualize the challenges you are facing.

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

  Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a modified type of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Its main goals are to teach people how to live in the moment, develop healthy ways to cope with stress, regulate their emotions, and improve their relationships with others. I utilize DBT informed therapy.

• Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

  CBT is a type of therapeutic treatment that helps people learn how to identify and change destructive or disturbing thought patterns that have a negative influence on behavior and emotions. Together you will focus on changing automatic negative thoughts that can contribute to and worsen emotional difficulties, depression, and anxiety. Through CBT, these thoughts are identified, challenged, and replaced with more objective, realistic thoughts.

• Expressive Art Therapy

  Therapeutic process designed to build skills for grounding, mindfulness, and distress tolerance. A piece of the therapeutic puzzle to help you cope day to day as we dive deeper into your work. It is used to support healing from trauma and coping with grief and loss.
