areas of special focusExperience Healing & Calm with Integrative Counseling Services for the Whole Person
Individual Therapy: Areas of Special Focus
Anxiety & Trauma
The echo of trauma is often experienced as anxiety, panic, chronic overwhelm, relationship strain, perfectionism, avoidance, and embodied in physical symptoms like headaches, body pain, insomnia, and more. We draw upon whole-person, evidence-based approaches to help you reconnect to a sense of calm and safety within.
Grief & Loss
Find solace and comfort navigating life after loss with compassionate grief support. We specialize in helping those who have experienced death of a spouse or loved one, traumatic loss, out-of-order loss, major life transitions, perinatal losses, reproductive loss, and non-traditional losses (losses unseen) and more.
Women’s Mental Health
Experience a safe haven to explore & receive support for navigating the unique influences affecting women’s psychological well-being: family of origin, relationships, parenting, career/vocation, pregnancy, motherhood, “otherhood”, mother wounds, hormonal imbalances, transitional life stages.
Chronic Illness
Counseling for chronic illness focuses on helping individuals manage the mental, emotional, and social impact of long-term illness. Using cognitive and somatic-based approaches, we help you learn to develop strategies to improve quality of life, strengthen self-esteem, and cultivate optimism and purpose.
Reproductive Grief Support: Pregnancy Loss & Infertility
If you’re facing infertility or grieving a pregnancy loss—through miscarriage, stillbirth, abortion, or TFMR (Termination for Medical Reason)—you don’t have to walk this path alone. We provide a safe and compassionate space where you can share your story, honor your loss, and begin to heal.
Faith & Spiritual Integration
We are privileged to support individuals from richly diverse spiritual & faith backgrounds. Spiritual Integration recognizes the deep connection between emotional well-being and spiritual life. Here, your beliefs are explored, respected, and woven into the counseling process with care and sensitivity. Together, we seek healing that aligns with your values and renews your sense of hope.
Evidence-based, Integrative Modalities
We Love & Use:
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR)
Experience freedom from the mental, emotional & physical aftermath of trauma using the power of EMDR, an integrative psychotherapy tool clearing trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, rumination, and a range of mental & emotional issues.
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT Tapping) /
Meridian Therapy
EFT Tapping, or Meridian Therapy, is a psycho-somatic, stress-reduction tool combining psychology with acupressure points. EFT Tapping is a highly effective tool known to calm the Central Nervous System within minutes and reduce physical pain. We hold 20 years of EFT Tapping experience!
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
/ Parts Work
IFS, commonly called Parts Work, is a gentle, experiential approach helping you to better understand and care for the different “parts” (aspects) of yourself with compassion. By exploring how these parts developed and what they need, we help your parts become “unburdened” to experience inner balance, self-leadership and emotional ease.
Somatic-based Therapies
Somatic therapies are gentle, body-based approaches like breath work, parts work, gentle movement, havening or tapping that help to facilitate emotional healing and resilience. Somatic therapies are based on the idea that our bodies store our stress, memories, and traumatic experiences. By tuning in to the body and its cues, we can release tension, heal trauma, and feel more grounded and whole.
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT is a values-based, mindful approach that helps you relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings, rather than struggling against them. Through building awareness, self-compassion, and psychological flexibility, we focus on what truly matters to you. This work helps you move toward a life guided by your values, even in the presence of challenges
