Individual therapy provides a safe, supportive environment for clients aged 13 and older to explore their emotional and psychological needs.  Drawing on attachment theory, sessions focus on identifying and understanding the client’s attachment style and its influence on relationships, emotional regulation, and behavior.  Using a humanistic, Maslow-based approach, clients uncover how unmet needs may shape their thoughts and behaviors, fostering a deeper understanding of themselves.

Incorporating Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques and a trauma-informed perspective, individual therapy equips clients with tools to improve mindfulness, manage distress, and navigate interpersonal challenges. Therapy goals are customized to align with the client’s culture, personality, and aspirations, promoting holistic growth and well-being.

Couples therapy helps partners build healthier, more secure attachments within their relationship.  Sessions are designed to address communication breakdowns, trust issues, and unmet emotional needs.  It integrates exploration of guilt, shame, and betrayal, helping partners navigate these complex emotions that often arise in intimate relationships.

By unpacking the origins and impacts of these feelings, couples can work toward understanding, forgiveness, and rebuilding trust.  Attachment theory provides a framework for exploring how early relationship patterns shape each partner’s emotional responses, while DBT techniques offer practical strategies to regulate emotions and foster constructive communication.

This approach is ideal for couples seeking to repair or strengthen their bond, whether in the context of romantic partnerships, co-parenting, or other intimate connections.

Family therapy focuses on strengthening relationships and promoting healthy attachment patterns among family members.  Sessions explore how family dynamics and individual attachment styles contribute to conflict, communication barriers, or emotional distress.

Using a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive approach, families are guided through strategies to enhance empathy, improve problem-solving, and foster emotional safety.  By addressing each member’s unique perspective and unmet needs, family therapy helps families build secure and supportive bonds while navigating life transitions, trauma, or chronic stressors.
