Mindfulness is a practice that involves intentionally focusing our attention on the present moment without judgment. It emphasizes bringing awareness to thoughts, feelings, and sensations as they arise. Through this practice, we learn to observe our experiences and develop an accepting mindset - gaining clarity and emotional resilience. Mindfulness exercises can lead to improved stress management and decreased depression - ultimately bringing a sense of calm and presence to your daily life.

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is a gentle yet powerful technique for addressing trauma, anxiety, phobias, depression, and more. During EMDR sessions, we’ll focus on specific memories while using bilateral stimulation, typically through guided eye movements or tapping. This process allows your brain to reprocess distressing information, store disturbing memories more adaptively, and release emotional experiences that are trapped in the nervous system. For many individuals this results in more resolved, peaceful feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT is a collaborative and goal-oriented, evidence-based approach that aims to challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is based on the idea that our thoughts and beliefs greatly influence our emotions and actions. Together we’ll develop personalized CBT tools and skills to effectively manage challenges, improve your mood, and enhance your overall well-being.

Somatic therapy is based on the understanding that our experiences are stored not only in our minds but also within our bodies. Through body-oriented techniques, we foster a deeper awareness of our bodies and their sensations. Grounding practices and tools to calm the nervous system are integral parts of this approach, highlighting the inseparable connection between mind and body. Somatic-based techniques are particularly effective in addressing trauma, offering a means to explore and release emotions held within the body. By acknowledging the body's innate ability to heal, somatic therapy provides a safe and supportive space for individuals to reconnect with themselves.
