WHAT TO EXPECT

Some clients come in knowing what’s going on. Some don’t.

We take the time to understand what’s actually happening - not force everything into a single explanation.

Our work is grounded in trauma-informed care, making room for PTSD, OCD, dissociation, and neurodivergence in ways that aren’t reduced to one lens.

We pay attention to context - how identity, history, and environment shape your life, and how you can get to where you want to go.

WAYS WE WORk

We start with the belief your mind and body are trying to do something adaptive - even when it’s causing distress.

Our work is grounded in how the nervous system carries experience over time - and how things can begin to move differently.

Our clinicians draw from a range of approaches depending on fit. For some clients, this includes structured treatments like ERP, I-CBT, or EMDR. For others, the work is more relational, somatic, or experiential.

  • We work with PTSD, complex trauma, and dissociative conditions using approaches that support memory reconsolidation - like EMDR, IFS, and somatic therapies - while pacing carefully and collaboratively.

    We also work with dissociative systems using a paced, neurobiologically-informed approach with a focus on increasing co-consciousness and integration rather than fusion.

  • We work with OCD using approaches like ERP and I-CBT, without assuming it exists in isolation.

    For some clients, OCD intersects with trauma or dissociation, and so we approach that overlap carefully - without reducing one to the other.

  • We work with ADHD and autism by adapting therapy to your processing style, sensory needs, and capacity, while moving away from behavioral correction.

    When clients are also working through experiences like trauma or OCD, we adjust our approach so the work fits your system rather than working against it.

  • We work with relationships using an approach grounded in attachment and nervous system awareness.

    We look at what’s happening underneath - how each person’s history, responses, and needs shape the relationship dynamic.

    This may include working through conflict, disconnection, or recurring patterns, at a pace that allows both everyone in the room to stay engaged in the process.
