Anxiety Treatment
Perhaps you’re a worst-case scenario thinker, meaning that you constantly fear that something bad will happen. As a result, you may often feel exhausted by your own thinking patterns, as it seems like you can never achieve a sense of peace.
Anxiety stems from the universal need that all of us have to feel safe, secure, and stable. It therefore makes sense that millions of people struggle with thoughts driven by fear or worry. Nevertheless, anxiety can be a disruptive and exhausting disorder to live with.
Through individual counseling with methods, such as cognitive therapy, we can help you process through your thought patterns, past experiences, physical sensations, and memories in a way that can help you make more sense about your experiences. You are not alone. You are not broken and you are not weak for experiencing anxiety. Anxiety is the mind’s way of keeping you safe. It’s just that the brain doesn’t know when to stop worrying or when the situation you are experiencing doesn’t warrant the amount of anxiety that you are feeling. There is a better way and you don’t have to suffer.

Trauma Treatment
If you’re living with unresolved trauma, it can impact every facet of life. Whether you struggle with intrusive thoughts, nightmares, or dissociation, or you have cognitive challenges with your memory or concentration—unresolved distress can make aspects of everyday living unbearable.
You probably feel like life would be much more manageable if you weren’t plagued by the pain and distress of your past. And though it may be impossible to change what happened, therapy can help you to understand and heal from the effects of your trauma.
Trauma is complex, and if it goes unresolved, it’s likely to accumulate and create problems over time. Yet, it’s possible to change the way that your body reacts in times of distress and how your memories impact your everyday functioning. You no longer have to suffer from the discomfort, flashbacks, and turmoil that your trauma has inflicted.
If you’ve experienced trauma, the idea of talking to someone about it may sound frightening, stressful, and overwhelming. That’s why we won’t immediately jump into triggering details or painful memories.
You have already survived; now let's help you thrive.

Grief & Loss Treatment
Loss can take many shapes, from the death of a loved one to the culmination of a major part of your journey.
The common denominator of loss is the painful experience of being stripped away from a piece of yourself or your world—physically, mentally, or emotionally.
While some people can heal with time and the support of friends and family, others might feel confused and stuck in an everlasting storm. Longing what’s been lost might hurt so deeply that carrying on seems unfeasible.
You might think of therapy as a last resource or something you don’t need because you “should” be able to heal by yourself. Perhaps you don’t want to share your deepest thoughts and fears with a stranger, particularly if these stem from a heartbreaking loss. Or you may be trying to suppress and numb the pain, only to find yourself hurting even more.
You deserve to take space and make this process your own. But you are not alone in this. If you are grappling with symptoms of complicated grief, counseling can help you.
