Psychotherapy, also called talk therapy, is a way to help people with a broad variety of mental illnesses and emotional difficulties. A somatic therapist helps people release damaging, pent-up emotions in the body by using various mind-body techniques. These can vary widely, ranging from hypnosis, breathwork and dance, psychodrama, body awareness, calming tension in the body, pendulation, titration and resourcing.

Cognitive behavioral therapy also known as CBT is a highly practical and effective intervention for people with various problems. This type of therapy helps to identify and address the behaviors and thinking patterns that cause and maintain an underlying problem. Numerous studies show that CBT is just as effective as medication, 75% of people experience a decrease in symptoms, within two years post therapy (Leahy & Holland, 2001).

Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) is an empirically supported model that gives patients corrective emotional and relational experiences that mobilize changes in the brain. AEDP is transdiagnostic, i.e., it can effectively treat trauma, depression, emotion dysregulation, negative thoughts, experiential avoidance, and interpersonal problems. AEDP establishes a therapeutic relationship of safety and trust, enhances positive functioning such as self-compassion & lasting change.

Healing takes time, but with the right tools and guidance, you can thrive.

Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged stress, often from work or caregiving responsibilities.

With the right support and strategies, you can restore your energy, regain balance, and thrive.
