Individual Therapy THERAPEUTIC APPROACHES
01 Cognitive behavioral therapy
CBT helps you recognize thought and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, overthinking, and self-doubt so you can respond with greater clarity and intention.
02 Dialectical Behavioral therapy
DBT-informed therapy builds practical skills for regulating emotions, tolerating distress, communicating effectively, and establishing healthier boundaries.
03 Narrative Therapy
Narrative Therapy helps you examine the stories, roles, and expectations shaping your identity so you can separate from limiting narratives and define who you are becoming.
04 Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR helps the brain process distressing experiences that continue to influence your emotions, beliefs, relationships, or reactions in the present.
The Identity Retune
YOUR 4-PART RETUNE
01 IDENTITY & ALIGNMENT AUDIT
Explore the gap between who you are, who you’ve had to become, and who others expect you to be. Identify where your life, work, relationships, or public identity no longer feel aligned.
02 ROLES, PRESSURE & EXPECTATIONS
Identify the roles, responsibilities, expectations, and external pressures shaping how you see yourself and the choices you make. Clarify what still fits, what feels performative, and what you may be ready to release.
03 RECONNECT WITH YOURSELF
Reconnect with your values, needs, desires, and sense of self outside of achievement, productivity, visibility, and other people’s expectations. Clarify what feels true to who you are now.
04 YOUR IDENTITY RETUNE BLUEPRINT
Turn your insights into direction. Leave with a personalized blueprint for what you want to protect, change, pursue, and let go of so your next decisions feel more grounded, intentional, and aligned.

COMMON QUESTIONS:
Depending on your needs, our work may include both psychotherapy and life coaching. Because this is a private-pay practice, sessions can move fluidly between emotional processing and forward-focused coaching in a way that insurance-based care does not allow.
Self-pay therapy allows for more flexibility, privacy, and depth than insurance-based care. Sessions aren’t limited by diagnoses, rigid treatment plans, or time constraints, so the work can be tailored to what you actually need.
We work with creative professionals and high-achieving individuals navigating stress, burnout, people-pleasing, boundary challenges, identity transitions, and emotional fatigue. This work is best suited for those who are high-functioning externally but internally experiencing overwhelm, disconnection, or a growing sense that something no longer feels aligned.
