I work with many individuals who have PTSD/C-PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, OCD, and BPD. At the first session, I learn what it is you are trying to be better at or overcome. You can expect to learn coping skills to help you self-regulate, such as mindfulness, somatic exercises, breath work, and challenging your inner dialogue. Most individuals in the first month of therapy report a positive change.
