Hello! My name is Arianna, and I am a Trauma-Informed Behavioral Therapist. I specialize in EMDR, Trauma and PTSD, Eating Disorders, Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Postpartum, Attachment, Adjustment and Life Transitions, and Dual Diagnosis in children, teens, and adults. Our past and present experiences formulate our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I believe we can change these through trauma processing, challenging our thoughts, reframing them, and developing the coping skills to work through them. I have 3 years of experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
In therapy, I take on a holistic and integrative approach. I draw and implement different techniques from different approaches. Some of these include techniques from Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Narrative therapy.
Whether you are looking to break patterns, process trauma, learn coping skills, rebuild your relationship with food and body image, improve your relationships, or learn more about yourself, you don't have to do it alone. Together, we will establish your goals, work together to accomplish them, and help you become a better version of yourself.

I work with clients as young as 10 struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders. In our initial sessions, we will review your goals and talk about different coping skills that may help you and how to utilize and implement them. These coping skills can be vital to trauma processing and emotion regulation. Most of my clients see gradual improvements within the first month.
