Areas of Focus
Individual Therapy
A lot happens to us in our lifetimes, and whether those are terrifying or exciting experiences, we all deserve a space to process. Individual therapy helps you understand yourself, your emotions, and your behaviors so you can navigate challenges with confidence.
Maybe you struggle with people-pleasing, feel exhausted by overthinking, or find it hard to set boundaries. Therapy helps you gain clarity, challenge negative thought patterns, and build coping tools that fit your life so you can feel more in control. Together, we’ll build coping strategies, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and help you feel more in control of your life.
Relationship Issues
You want meaningful connections, but relationships can feel draining, confusing, or unbalanced. You might find yourself avoiding commitment out of fear of getting hurt, feeling stuck in toxic dynamics, or struggling to communicate your needs. Therapy helps you strengthen your relationships, whether with a partner, family, friends, or coworkers, by improving communication, setting boundaries, and fostering deeper emotional connections.
Depression
Depression can feel like moving through life with a weighted backpack. You might lose interest in things you once loved, struggle to get out of bed, or feel numb and disconnected. Maybe you’re overwhelmed by guilt for not "doing enough" but lack the energy to create change. Therapy helps you break free from this cycle by understanding the root of your emotions, reframing unhelpful self-talk, and finding ways to bring joy and purpose back into your life.
Anxiety Disorders
You want to make a decision, but the fear of choosing the "wrong" thing paralyzes you. You replay conversations in your head, worry about worst-case scenarios, or avoid things that make you uncomfortable, even if they’re things you want. Maybe you struggle with perfectionism, social anxiety, or an overwhelming sense of dread about the future. Therapy helps you manage anxiety by identifying triggers, challenging intrusive thoughts, and building tools to feel more at ease in your day-to-day life.
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
You logically know you're safe, but your body feels like you're constantly in an active shooter simulation. Maybe loud noises make your heart race, crowded spaces feel unbearable, or certain smells, songs, or phrases transport you back to painful memories. You might find it difficult to trust people, push people away, or constantly feel on edge. Therapy helps you safely process past trauma, rebuild a sense of security, and regain control over your mind and body.
Life Transitions
Change, chosen or unexpected, can shake your sense of stability. Maybe you're starting a new job, moving to a new city, thinking of becoming a parent, or dealing with a breakup. Even exciting transitions can bring grief, self-doubt, or anxiety about the unknown. Therapy provides support as you adjust, helping you embrace change with confidence and resilience.
School, Work, and Other General Life Stressors
Your to-do list feels endless, and no matter how much you do, it never feels like enough. Maybe you’re burnt out at work, overwhelmed by internship applications, or struggling to balance responsibilities. You might feel guilty for needing a break or feel frozen under all the pressure, unsure where to start. Therapy helps you set boundaries, manage stress, and develop habits that prevent burnout while still meeting your goals.
