Yes! In fact some experts believe that by allowing you to be in a place where you are most comfortable, that it allows for therapy to be more effective than traditional in-person therapy.
Therapy is designed to provide a safe space for self-exploration and emotional support. It offers tools to manage stress, improve relationships, and develop healthier coping strategies. Therapy also promotes self-awareness, boosts confidence, and supports lasting positive changes.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), uses bilateral stimulation (like eye movement) to help process “stuck” memories. Based on the Adaptive Information Processing model, it is a non-invasive therapy that effectively resolves traumatic memories without retraumatizing clients. EMDR is clinically proven to be highly effective, with clients reporting better outcomes and less pain than other modalities.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps people manage mental health issues by identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors, allowing them to respond to challenging situations in a more effective way; it focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions, teaching individuals coping strategies to address their problems.
Each session is $185 for approximately 50 minutes, your initial consultation is free. Sliding scale pay is available upon request.
