Individual therapy consists of one-on-one interaction with the therapist and client. Our most essential relationship in life is our intimate relationship with ourselves. Our relationship with our authentic self dictates how we treat ourselves and connect with others. The authentic self includes true emotions, thoughts, expectations, self-concept, and our belief system. If our relationship with ourselves is destructive in any form it can negatively impact our level of happiness and peace. Personal destruction can come out in many different symptoms such as anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, perfectionism, self-criticism, and relationship problems.
Couples therapy consists of focusing on the couple relationship, married or not married. The individual and the couple will identify goals to accomplish in the healing process. Together, we will identify patterns that occur that prevents closeness and safety, while, at the same time, we will work towards secure attachment as a couple. We will teach you healthy communication skills as well, which will bring about an increase of intimacy in all areas by addressing and healing from attachment wounds and core issues. We utilize therapy models that are individualized for the client/clients. The most common and used evidenced based couples modality is known as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). EFT has been known to have a 75 percent success rate. Sue Johnson, the creator of EFT, has written many successful books such as Hold Me You and The Practice of Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy for clinicians.
Family Therapy consists of two or more family members and usually one parent involved in the problems. The issues can be emotional, verbal, and/or physical. Common problems are stress, fighting, depression, or one individual suffering from depression or an addiction. Family therapy is a great way to increase closeness, enable openness, and to heal from problems that create distance between family members. We utilize research-based therapy like the Family-Systems Theory as well as Emotionally Focused Family Therapy, systems as well as Experiential Therapy. We will teach new ways of communicating and healthy boundaries. Also, making shifts toward every member of the family feel like they can be themselves.

“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”
