Our Philosophy
Everyone has stuff they’re working through; hard moments, patterns that don’t feel great, or challenges that come from a mix of genetics, neurology, development, biology, or the things we’ve lived through. Early attachment, trauma, stress, loss and big life transitions all shape us in different ways. We all have patterns, traits, and differences that make us who we are. Some of them serve us well, and some create distress or get in the way. Therapy is about understanding those pieces and shifting the ones that aren’t working.
You may already have a diagnosis, whether from another therapist or self-diagnosed from Dr. Google, Chat GPT or TikTok. Diagnoses have their place and can be helpful information, especially for insurance, but it doesn’t tell the whole story. We focus on what you’re actually experiencing and what would help you feel better.
