Grief
First, please know you’re not alone. Grief is part of the human experience, whether it’s a significant life change or losing someone close. Our sessions will focus on supporting you through your unique grief experience using sympathy, empathy, and science-backed professional techniques.
Anxiety
Anxiety is a complex condition with multiple potential sources. Before beginning treatment, addressing any underlying post traumatic stress is crucial. This approach helps you understand what’s a response to the current situation and what is part of your past. Our sessions will focus on effective strategies for feeling calm and present, even in times of stress.
Stress
Stress can occur from any number of sources, and your response to different stressors is unique. Our sessions will address post traumatic stress, if present, and move into understanding your emotional responses to the current situation. Our sessions will focus on effective strategies that help you feel present and hopeful, no matter what else is going on.
Depression
Depression is an ongoing condition with several potential contributing factors. Before addressing depression, any underlying post traumatic stress must be addressed. Our sessions will focus on strategies to maintain calm and presence even before directly addressing depression. By doing so, you can gain a comprehensive toolkit to use even when things feel stressful.
Domestic Abuse
Domestic abuse, including physical, emotional, sexual, and financial, can have pronounced long-term effects on your life. Whether still in the relationship, newly left, or it’s been a while, survivors often need a safe, supportive environment to regain a sense of control over their lives. Our sessions will focus on coping skills, healing from trauma, and strategies to break free from abuse.
Climate Change Anxiety
This specialized type of therapy addresses the anxiety and distress associated with the rapid changes in Earth’s climate. Our sessions will focus on tools and techniques to understand their emotions, live a sustainable lifestyle, and manage their reactions. The goal is to help you make positive changes to reduce anxiety and create change. Climate Anxiety Therapy →
Smoking Cessation
Smoking affects health, relationships, social settings, and more. With a 75% success rate, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) helps smokers address common issues with putting down nicotine for good. Our sessions will focus on learning the meridian points on the body and how to focus on the present to alleviate the discomfort of quitting. Smoking Cessation Therapy →
Physical/Sexual Trauma
This kind of trauma can be especially challenging to overcome, especially without dedicated support. The long-term effects on mental health can affect you for decades. Our sessions will focus on working through complex emotions, processing traumatic memories, and developing healthy coping skills that help you move toward healing.
Physical Pain
Physical pain, especially chronic pain, touches every aspect of your life. Evidence-based therapeutic methods can help address this pain when it stems from trauma, stress, emotional issues, and other causes to achieve a noticeable improvement. Our sessions will focus on identifying underlying causes, developing effective coping skills, and learning management.
Phobias
Specific phobias can respond to therapeutic approaches, such as social anxiety and agoraphobia. These phobias can be debilitating in several areas of your life, including connection to others. Our sessions will focus on addressing the root causes, developing healthy coping skills, and understanding your fears.
