EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps your brain do what it already knows how to do — heal. Using gentle bilateral stimulation, it allows painful memories to lose their emotional charge without requiring you to relive them in detail. Recognized by the APA, the WHO, and the VA, it's one of the most well-researched trauma treatments available.
-
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to the present moment — without judgment. It sounds simple, but for most of us it's a skill that takes time to develop. In our work together, I'll teach you practical mindfulness tools to help you stay grounded, regulate difficult emotions, and respond to life's challenges with a little more intention and a little less reactivity.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is an evidence-based approach built on a simple but powerful idea: the way we think shapes the way we feel and behave. Together, we'll identify the thought patterns and behaviors that are keeping you stuck, and learn to reframe them into something that actually serves you. It's practical, goal-oriented, and the changes you make in therapy translate directly into real life.

DBT is an evidence-based therapy originally developed for people who experience emotions intensely — but its tools are useful for almost everyone. It teaches practical skills for regulating difficult emotions, tolerating distress, improving relationships, and staying present. Think of it as a toolkit for navigating life's hardest moments without making them worse.

Living with ADHD as an adult looks different than it did in childhood — and it's often under recognized and misunderstood. With specialized training in adult ADHD treatment, I can help you build practical strategies for managing focus, organization, and emotional regulation so that your brain's unique wiring becomes a strength rather than a source of frustration.
