How I Work

Change your thoughts, change your life.

CBT is a practical, solution-focused approach that helps you recognize and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior. If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in cycles of worry, self-doubt, or avoidance, CBT offers tools to break free. Together, we identify the beliefs and habits that keep you stuck and develop healthier ways of responding to life’s challenges. CBT is especially effective for anxiety, depression, phobias, and negative self-talk.

Balance logic and emotion. Live with more intention.

Originally developed for intense emotions and relationship struggles, DBT blends acceptance with change. This therapy teaches four key skill sets: mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. If you feel overwhelmed, reactive, or misunderstood, DBT helps you slow down, understand your emotions, and respond more skillfully—without losing your voice or your values.

Your earliest bonds shape your present relationships.

Attachment therapy explores how your early care-giving experiences influence the way you relate, trust, and connect as an adult. Whether you avoid closeness, fear abandonment, or feel stuck in repeating patterns, attachment-based work helps uncover the root of these dynamics. Together, we build a therapeutic relationship that models secure attachment—creating space for healing, emotional resilience, and more satisfying relationships.

Heal where trauma lives—in the body.

Trauma isn’t just something that happened in the past—it lives in the nervous system. Somatic Trauma Therapy gently guides you back into connection with your body, helping you release stored tension and re-establish a felt sense of safety. Using body-based awareness, breath-work, and attuned movement or touch, this approach supports deep, lasting healing from shock, abuse, neglect, or chronic stress. It’s especially helpful if talk therapy alone hasn’t felt like enough.

Secure attachment isn’t just an idea—it’s a felt experience.

Somatic attachment therapy combines the insights of attachment theory with body-based awareness to help you feel safe in connection, not just understand it. This gentle approach supports nervous system regulation while exploring the relational wounds that shaped your sense of self and intimacy. Especially powerful for survivors of neglect, abuse, or inconsistent care-giving, somatic attachment therapy helps you shift from survival into deeper presence, trust, and connection—within yourself and with others.

Reconnect from the inside out.

When past trauma shows up in your relationship, it can create distance, confusion, or cycles of conflict that feel impossible to break. Somatic trauma therapy in couples work helps each partner tune into their own body’s signals while staying emotionally present with each other. We gently explore how nervous system responses like shutdown, defensiveness, or overwhelm affect communication and intimacy—and learn how to co-regulate, repair, and rebuild safety together.
