Individual Therapy

“I just don’t know how to feel happy in this relationship, I really want to be, but something feels off.”

Relationships can either be the most fulfilling and safe place, or they can make every day feel stressful and lonely. Feeling disconnected, unable to share how you feel, or stressed about the future of your relationship is extremely overwhelming. I often work with individuals who want to unpack their relationships (partnerships, engagements, or marriages) and get in touch the path forward that feels most right for them. I’ll help you identify your own needs, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with parts of yourself that may have been pushed aside while you were trying to hold everything together.

“I live with constant anxiety.”

When therapists describe their specializations, they often describe the types of challenges or “symptoms” clients they work with go through. The way that symptoms that something is wrong show up can look different for every person. For some people, symptoms might look like difficulty trusting other people, anxiety, depression, or emotionally shutting down. These symptoms often come from memories that are “stuck” and need to be reprocessed. EMDR can help. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based psychotherapy approach that helps individuals process distressing memories and experiences that contribute to ongoing symptoms. By using bilateral stimulation, such as guided eye movements, EMDR assists the brain in reprocessing traumatic or disruptive memories, which can reduce their emotional impact and help alleviate symptoms like anxiety, depression, and hypervigilance.

“I have a part of me that feels like it will always be abandoned.”

Parts work is a therapeutic approach that helps you recognize and understand the different “parts” of yourself—like the protective part, the wounded part, or the part that does everything in its power to avoid conflict. Instead of seeing these inner parts as problems, we explore them as understandable responses shaped by your experiences. I can guide you to give each part space to express its needs, fears, and intentions without judgment. This process helps you develop more compassion for yourself and reduces internal conflict.

“I feel completely alone, no one understand what I’m going through.”

Many people never received the safety to ask themselves, “How do I feel most loved?” or “What do I need from others?”. The burdens of silence, unmet needs, and heavy mental loads can lead to overwhelm, loneliness, and stress. As your therapist, my role is to offer a steady, compassionate space where you don’t have to carry your experiences alone. In a safe, supportive individual therapy environment, you can learn to understand your own attachment needs, emotions, and communication patterns more clearly, without the pressure of navigating someone else’s reactions in the moment. This helps you move beyond getting caught up in the surface details of conflicts and instead focus on the deeper feelings and triggers that drive your responses. Therapy creates space to lower defensiveness, clarify your internal experiences, and develop healthier ways of expressing yourself.
