Individual Therapy

Individuals often seek out therapy when they are feeling stagnant, managing stress, negotiating transitions or losses, attempting to understand relational patterns, or when difficult emotions become too painful or challenging, and there is a feeling that life is on hold because of their struggles. During these periods, it can feel impossible to access your inherent strengths on your own.

Explore, Heal, and Thrive

Together, we will identify entrenched patterns, explore personal beliefs, and work to develop healthy coping skills. We will focus on the present while developing an understanding of how experiences may be impacting your current life. The therapeutic process will also help you develop a greater sense of self-acceptance, clarify what’s most important to you, and take steps toward a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Child and
Adolescent Therapy

When referring a child or adolescent for therapy, parents are active participants in the therapy process. Research substantiates that family involvement in the treatment of a child or adolescent yields quicker and longer-lasting positive change. Parental involvement also provides necessary opportunities to practice changes in relational patterns between the child and parent in the therapy session that can, in turn, be generalized outside of therapy.

Treatment Specializations:

  • Aggression/defiance
  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
  • Low Self-Esteem/bullying
  • School refusal
  • Substance Abuse
  • Anxiety and Panic

Couples

Whether considering marriage or divorce, furthering your commitment, negotiating family planning, or improving sexual health and connection, couples therapy can assist in creating more adaptive patterns of communication between you and your partner to collaboratively negotiate these important decisions. While problems can become evident within a relationship, in therapy, the solutions are also often found within the context of the relationship. Exploring roles and learning new methods of communicating assist in increasing flexibility and mutuality and creating a relationship that nurtures the emotional, physical, and intellectual aspects of being a couple.

Treatment specializations:

  • Sexual health and connection
  • Infidelity
  • Family Planning
  • Parenting Issues

Families

Parenting a child or adolescent is a complex role that requires a great deal of patience, collaboration, and sensitivity to the experiences of each family member. As the family is a central focus of life, when one member becomes symptomatic, each member of the family is engaged to identify solutions.

Treatment specializations:

  • Emotional and Behavioral Disorders
  • Autism Spectrum Disorders
  • ADHD
  • Developmental Disabilities
  • School Refusal
  • Adoption
  • Single-parent families/step-parenting/co-parenting through divorce

Supervision

We provide clinical supervision for therapists seeking deeper training in experiential dynamic therapies, including ISTDP and AEDP informed work. In addition to technical skill building, supervision emphasizes moment-to-moment process, affective experience of the therapist’s internal responses, including countertransference , as central clinical tools. We find great meaning in supporting both early career and seasoned clinicians and creating a reflective, attachment informed space where both clinical skill and professional identity can evolve.
