AEDP is a deeply relational approach that focuses on what’s happening in the here and now. It’s all about creating a safe, healing relationship where we can explore your feelings in real-time. Many people come to therapy because relationships—whether with themselves or others—feel broken or difficult. AEDP gives us a space to repair that, together. It’s not just about understanding your past but using the relationship we build in session to create real-time emotional healing. Whether you’re navigating trauma or just feeling disconnected, AEDP offers a compassionate, supportive space where emotional wounds can be felt, processed, and transformed in the moment.

IFS is about getting to know the different parts of you—like the one that shuts down when things get hard, the one that gets snappy, or the one that shops when you're overwhelmed. Think Inside Out, but instead of just emotions, it’s the many ways you’ve learned to cope.

These aren’t “multiple personalities”—just protective strategies you've picked up along the way. Together, we’ll get curious about what each part needs and how to bring more balance between the thinking parts and the ones that hold deeper, gut-level wisdom. Sometimes we’ll talk it out, but often we’ll tune into your body for guidance, helping all your parts feel heard and work more in sync.

In EFIT, we look at the "internal cycles" that keep you feeling stuck, anxious, or alone. Just as couples get caught in repetitive arguments, we often get caught in repetitive internal patterns—ways of protecting ourselves that might have worked once but now leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others.

Rather than just talking about problems, we slow down to explore the underlying emotions and attachment needs that drive your reactions. We work to transform those old, protective patterns into a new sense of balance and confidence. My goal is to help you create a secure "home base" within yourself, so you can navigate your life and your relationships with more resilience, openness, and ease.

What is it? Brainspotting is based on the idea that where you look affects how you feel. We use specific eye positions to access stress or trauma held deep in the subcortical brain—the parts that logic and talk therapy can’t always reach.

What should I expect? It may feel a bit strange at first! Unlike traditional talk therapy, we focus on a single point in space while you observe your body’s internal reactions. This shift from "thinking" to "observing" allows for deep, accelerated healing without needing to endlessly retell your story.

How does it differ from EMDR? While both use eye positions, Brainspotting is slower and more intuitive. It prioritizes your body’s natural ability to self-scan and release tension, helping you process heavy emotions at a pace that feels manageable rather than overwhelming.
