ROOTS BASED
A pillar to achieving lasting and meaningful change is adopting a “bottom-up” counseling approach, rather than a “top-down” one. Together, we will explore the underlying issues linked to the presenting symptoms and focus on healing the root causes and traumatic experiences that hinder us from becoming the best versions of ourselves.

EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic approach designed to assist individuals in processing and resolving traumatic memories. It uses bilateral stimulation to promote the adaptive processing of distressing experiences, with the goal of reducing the emotional impact of traumatic memories and better integrating them into the person's cognitive framework. Ongoing research demonstrates positive clinical outcomes, highlighting EMDR therapy as an effective treatment for disorders like anxiety, depression, addictions, and other challenging life experiences.

TRAUMA INFORMED
Trauma-Informed therapy recognizes and prioritizes the impact of trauma, whether big or small, on a person's life and mental health. It is based on the understanding that trauma can have long-lasting effects on an individual's emotional, psychological, physical, and spiritual well-being. Safety, trust, and a strong therapeutic relationship is established, ensuring individuals are not re-traumatized during treatment.
psalm 23: 4
Even though I walk through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
