We work from a Cognitive Behavioral approach, which is a highly effective psychotherapy for the treatment of depression. As you begin to better understand your core values, you will find more meaning in your life. You will begin to change your negative thinking and behaviors that may be contributing to your depression. Additionally, mindfulness based strategies will be employed so that you are better able to have distance from the thoughts and emotions which may be causing you distress.

We work with family members on assertive communication training and interpersonal effectiveness to build a deeper sense of understanding and compassion for those in your family, as well as better patterns of interaction. Using Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Emotion Focused Family Therapy, we can help you rebuild better relationships between family members.

Our practice is inclusive, and will empower you to connect with a more true sense of self. We have experience working with clients of all types of background, and we work with clients to better understand and live their identify in many ways, including sexuality and gender. We also work with clients who have experienced adversity based on their identity.

We work to be a mirror to clients, helping them see themselves accurately. This process of externalizing in a safe environment allows clients to find their genuine way of identifying and then to live fully as themselves. Finding a true sense of oneself and being able to interact with the world from a genuine place is a true gift that therapy can give you.

We will work with you to process your emotions regarding your loss, and also the cognitions and broader worldviews that may have shifted. Through this, you will find acceptance for what you have been through, and the ability to see the world in a new way. We will provide you a safe, compassionate environment to work through all the messy stages of grief, so that you can experience a brighter future.

Using skills from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Based Psychotherapy, and Emotion Focused Family Therapy, we can work with you from many angles. We will work on your attachment, how you respond emotionally in the moment, as well as give you tools for improving your way of relating to and communicating with others. This flexible and scientific approach will help you feel better connected to others, which we believe is the foundation for joyful life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is an effective tool for working on one’s reactions to stress. We also work with clients to find better systems of organization so that typically stressful events (ie: exams, deadlines, commitments) are better seen from a bird’s eye view and therefore planned for more effectively. From college students to business executives, we work with people to find better organization, prioritization, and stress management tools.

We have extensive clinical experience with adolescents and young adults. We offer a safe space to process and heal the wide range of issues that teens and college students may endure. We understand the unique challenges of this age group.

We work with sexual and gender identity exploration, and other aspects of identity development. Additionally, we work with survivors of sexual assault, which is far too common in the college environment. If this is your experience, we offer a safe place to process and heal. You do not have to suffer through this alone.

We work with trauma compassionately, using the strongest evidence based therapies. These include: Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). As we begin working together, we will go over a treatment plan, and discuss different options for approaching and healing from trauma.

Trauma is often overlooked for symptoms that commonly co-occur, such as depression. By working with the root of the problem, your healing will be deeper and more impactful.
