Stack of three books on therapeutic approaches and personal development. The top book is titled "Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma" by Levine. The middle book is titled "What You Can Change... and What You Can't" by Martin E.P. Seligman. The bottom book is titled "Approaches to Art Therapy."

Trauma can leave you feeling stuck, and disconnected.

Reconnect with a sense of joy, meaning, and possibility in your life.

Through our work together, combining creative and evidence-based therapies, you’ll not only regulate your nervous system and gently process experiences, but also cultivate post-traumatic growth.

This means rediscovering your strengths, building resilience, and reconnecting with a sense of joy, meaning, and possibility in your life.

What do Trauma Therapy sessions look like?

Offering EMDR and art-based trauma therapy to help you access the root of trauma - and heal it.

We’ll make art, and engage in trauma therapy techniques such as EMDR, emotion regulation skills, and mindfulness practices along with heart-centered conversation.

You don’t need to “make art” in every session. However, we will offer the option of therapeutic art making as a tool to help you address anxiety.
