One common reason for seeking therapy is emotional distress and mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, stress, or trauma. Many people also seek therapy for relationship and interpersonal issues. Grief following the loss of a loved one or experiencing a major transition can be emotionally challenging.

You want change at the root, not just more coping. I primarily use Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), a brainstem-based, evidence-informed approach that attends to the earliest layers of the threat response. We move gently—without forced retelling—so deep tension can ease, breath and sleep can improve, and a sense of safety in the body can grow. From there, life is experienced from a calmer, more connected place with more choice and less reactivity. As helpful, I integrate Art Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Relational Intelligence (IR), and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to support your goals.

You learned to adapt early. Perhaps you overthink, overperform, mask, minimize needs, take on too much responsibility, and stay one step ahead of what might go wrong just to quiet the tension or feel safe enough to belong. Now you’re surviving, but exhausted

For the last 7 years, I have worked with survivors of trauma - including sexual violence, familial violence, racial trauma, homophobia, among others - to address and process their experiences. My approach to therapy is warm, responsive, playful and transparent. I believe that every person benefits from learning about themselves, and that understanding the process of therapy helps with learning about the self. I meet you where you are (literally, in some ways, as I am offering digital therapy), and believe we can move from there. I want therapy to be useful, and welcome honesty, feedback, and laughter in session.

You may feel stuck in old patterns, disconnected from loved ones, or never quite “good enough” no matter how hard you try. Painful childhood experiences, difficult family dynamics, or identity struggles may leave you feeling unseen, unheard, and unsure of who you really are. Perhaps you’re a parent or parent-to-be who wants to break generational cycles and create a healthier foundation for your family. Deep down, you want to trust yourself, feel more confident, and build relationships that are authentic, loving, and supportive.

Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
