I often use creative methods in therapy to join people in their healing journey in ways that feel unique to just them. I utilize an IFS informed attachment based EMDR approach to discover negative beliefs of self, the ways in which you have survived hurts, and blocks in attachment. In your first session we'll explore your goals and work together to develop a plan that's just as unique as you are.
