Who We Serve
EMDR
Have you heard your friends or family talk about EMDR? EMDR is our main evidence-based treatment that grounds each session to move toward and achieve your goal. Through biofeedback, you create adaptive brain pathways that alleviate future triggering. There are great benefits when confronting unresolved trauma through EMDR.
SPIRITUAL
Have you always wanted to include your meditation or prayer practices into psychotherapy? We believe spirituality is a powerful resource, and all humans are innately spiritual. Processing childhood trauma is like walking with a spiritual teacher. We aim to provide an inclusive space, welcoming your trusted spiritual guides, beliefs & practices while honoring your spiritual gifts.
GROUPS
We are a psycho-spiritual community. We offer groups where you can connect relationally and experientially. “Integration Groups” are meant to support processing in between sessions or post KAP. Being in relationship with people on a similar path is part of healing. Experiential groups through Yoga Integration and Trauma & Addiction, are among those offered.
*We do not specialize in working with children under 14, couples, families or psychological testing.

What We Treat
Persistent Depression Therapy
Do you wonder what the point of all this is? Have you lost hope that you’ll feel yourself again? Therapy isn’t meant to just hold you temporarily afloat. Would if we told you the shame you carry so deeply due to your depression could be released with a new and innovative treatment modality? Deep Brain Reorienting targets several layers in the midbrain- where deeply held shame, humiliation, loneliness and abandonment are activating. This modality is a natural, somatic process that can be very effective in clearing embedded trauma- and clear that cloud of darkness.
Anxiety Phobia Therapy
Do you have trouble sleeping, or wonder why you are anxious or get panic attacks for no apparent reason? Are you always in a hurry and worrying, or in constant “fight or flight” responses throughout the day? You are probably feeling tired and wondering if you will ever be able to relax again. The anxiety may be trapped energy that your body is trying to release, a part of you that is ready to unburden what no longer serves you. Therapy is a space where there is opportunity for the anxiety to be transformed and for you to embody in a whole new way.
Existential or Faith Based Therapy
Have you been looking for a clinical therapist who can legitimately provide mental health treatment, but can thoroughly embrace your spiritual practices, and also use them in therapy to further the work you are wanting to do? Are you a meditator or prayer warrior? Do you love breath work, sacred medicine, or energy healing? We believe spiritual inclusivity is important. A genuine connection with God or your Higher Power can often heal ailments just as much or more than evidence based practices.
ADHD, OCD, Eating Disorders & Grief
Do you ever feel like you are caught up in a pattern or a cycle, and you don’t even know who you are anymore? Do you feel like there is a program running in your brain and the little person in there who is supposed to be controlling it is asleep? If your True Self is “out to dinner” other parts of you are inevitably taking over. If you want to organize your internal system so that YOU are the leader of it, you might consider “Parts Work” or Internal Family Systems (IFS). You are able to identify that pattern, understand and heal the parts of you that are on overdrive, that at one point protected you so well, but now, it is time to transform.
PTSD, CPTSD Trauma Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing helps clear symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD and any lived out fight or flight responses to stress. These conditions are often caused by moments in childhood when your brain registered a threat. EMDR accesses the underlying neuronetwork that recorded the original event, in order to diminish future triggers and trauma responses. Are you ready to process your trauma?

PTSD & KAP Integration
Have you been doing trauma therapy for years and “hit a wall” in therapy? Some patterns are deep and relentless. That is why we have partnered with a prescriber to offer KAP, Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, conjunct with EMDR therapy. Ketamine coupled with intentional preparation and embodied yoga integration groups, can offer significant results when talk therapy is not enough.
