Integrative Therapy

I use an integrative approach to therapy, meaning I draw from different approaches depending on the individual and what they need rather than using the same framework with everyone. Some people come to therapy wanting space to process and understand themselves more deeply. Others are looking for practical strategies, structure, or help changing patterns that feel difficult to get out of. Most people benefit from some combination of both. My work focuses on understanding patterns, emotional responses, relationships, nervous system reactions, and the ways past experiences continue to shape present-day life.

EMDR

I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a therapy approach that can help people process trauma, anxiety, distressing experiences, and patterns that lead someone to continue to feel emotionally stuck. EMDR helps the brain process experiences in a different way so they no longer carry the same level of emotional intensity.

Music Psychotherapy

As a Board-Certified Music Therapist, I can incorporate music psychotherapy and other arts-based experiences into treatment for any client with interest, regardless of musical background and training. Sometimes music allows people to access emotions or experiences that are difficult to put into words directly. This may involve listening to recorded music, using live music in session, or using music-based experiences to support emotional processing, reflection, relaxation, or expression.

Therapy Intensives

In addition to ongoing therapy, I also offer therapy intensives for clients looking for a more focused and immersive format. Intensives involve extended sessions scheduled over a shorter period of time and may be helpful for people wanting to work more deeply on a specific issue, trauma history, life transition, or period of feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Depending on the client and goals involved, intensives may incorporate traditional therapy, EMDR, and creative arts-based experientials.
