Trauma Therapy

When you’ve experienced something that feels like it “wrecked your nervous system,” it’s often because your body and brain are still responding as if the threat hasn’t fully passed.

Trauma doesn’t just live in memories or in our mind, it lives in the body and nervous system, shaping how you feel, think, react, and relate to others.

Trauma-informed psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach that recognizes how overwhelming or chronic stress, trauma, or adverse experiences can impact emotional regulation, physical sensations, relationships, and sense of safety.

Rather than asking “What’s wrong with you?”, trauma-informed care asks “What happened to you and how has your nervous system adapted to survive?”

​

Integrative therapy incorporates a variety of evidence-based approaches beyond traditional talk therapy. Our team is trained in modalities including Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT), Motivational Interviewing, expressive arts therapies, and other trauma-informed interventions.

​

We also integrate somatic therapies, which recognize the impact trauma and stress can have on the body, alongside Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) tapping, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT).

​

By drawing from multiple therapeutic approaches, we are able to tailor treatment to each individual's unique needs, goals, and experiences, creating a personalized path toward healing, growth, and lasting change.

Anxiety Therapy

When you live with anxiety, it can feel like your nervous system is constantly on high alert. Fear and stress sometimes hijack our nervous system, and it feels like we need to anticipate the future. When things don't feel clear, or we feel like we can't trust, it is difficult to move forward.

​

Racing thoughts, tight chest, restlessness, irritability, or an ongoing sense that something bad is about to happen. Even when life looks “fine,” your body may feel like it can’t relax. Anxiety therapy is a supportive, evidence-based process that helps you understand why your nervous system is stuck in threat mode and how to gently bring it back into balance. Rather than trying to eliminate anxiety entirely, therapy focuses on helping you feel safer, more grounded, and more in control of your internal experience.

OCD and ICBT

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition characterized by persistent, unwanted thoughts, images, or urges (obsessions) that create significant anxiety, along with repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) performed to try to reduce that distress. These patterns can become time-consuming and interfere with daily functioning and relationships. Within an inference-based cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) framework, OCD is understood as a difficulty with trusting one’s internal sense of reality, leading individuals to rely on imagined possibilities rather than present-moment evidence. Treatment focuses on helping clients differentiate between imagined doubt and reality-based information, strengthening confidence in their own reasoning processes rather than directly targeting compulsions.
