We offer creative therapy for creative people because sometimes words are not enough. We primarily use verbal psychotherapy practices to treat our clients, and depending on your needs we may take a more active role and offer, music, visual art, poetry, movement, drama, or EMDR to help you move those sticky feelings. Our goal is to help you create a sense of flow in your life. Therapy like our art, can help us gain insight, reduce anxiety, worry, fear and help us increase our consciousness and connection to our innermost self. No experience in the arts is necessary.
Specialties include treating addiction, alcoholism, co-dependency, dating, depression, medical trauma, bereavement, mens issues, anxiety, and relationship issues, couple counseling. We also specialize in working with individuals who experience performance anxiety. We also understand 12 step recovery language, and offer recovery coaching.
If you're looking for a therapist who is relatable, then we are a good fit. We don't believe in the on the couch antiquated model of therapy. Like a coach, we play an active role in therapy.

We all have different specialties, some of us use IFS, EMDR, and DBT. What do all those things mean?! IFS looks at different parts of the self to help us understand where we get stuck. EMDR is a trauma treatment using bilateral tapping to help us move through traumatic memories with more ease and less stickiness. DBT is just another way to help us learn how to cope with emotions and get unstuck.
