Our approach
Depth-oriented, integrative, and deeply human
healing, meaning, and wholeness
Our approach to therapy goes beyond symptom management and quick fixes. We take a depth-oriented and integrative approach that turns attention inward— exploring what lies beneath the surface, including the unconscious patterns, beliefs, and internal landscape that shape how you experience yourself and the world.
We value both the desire for relief and the ongoing process of self-discovery, reflection, and meaning-making. Rather than only managing symptoms, we explore what they are connected to and attend to the deeper layers of your experience.
Through a mindful, heart-centered approach, we slow things down and bring curiosity to your inner world. Together, we build a relationship with the different parts of you, helping you reconnect with your inner wisdom, deepen your self-understanding, and move toward a more integrated, authentic way of being.
common questions
-
A depth-oriented approach to therapy emphasizes the unconscious—the hidden influences that shape how we think, feel, and relate. You can think of it like the roots of a tree, quietly supporting and shaping its growth.
These roots are hidden in our somatic experiences (like tension in the shoulders or chest when we talk about a particular topic or person), in the imaginal realm (such as images or metaphors associated with certain experiences), or in the deeper narratives and beliefs that shape how we move through the world and relate to others.
By exploring what lies beneath the surface, we can better understand our patterns, connect with all parts of ourselves, and create meaningful, lasting change that comes from within.
-
Integrative means that our therapists use a variety of different evidence-based therapies (including IFS, psychodynamic, mindfulness-based CBT, narrative therapy, and hakomi) so they can best meet you where you’re at on your journey
-
At its core, therapy with us is still talk therapy. We’re here to help you find relief, clarity, direction, and healing. The difference is in the approach: rather than focusing solely on quick solutions or step-by-step strategies to “get past” a symptom, we take a process-oriented approach, exploring the underlying patterns, beliefs, and experiences that shape your life.
Therapy remains person-centered, collaborative, and relational. We want to hear your story—and we help you uncover the layers beneath it.

While every therapist works differently - tailoring sessions to your unique needs, below is a list of questions you might hear your therapist ask throughout sessions:
“Where do you notice this feeling in your body?”
“What usually happens for you in situations like this?”
“When this comes up, what thoughts or images tend to show up?”
“What memories or past experiences seem connected to this feeling?”
“When you notice this pattern, what usually helps you feel a little lighter or more at ease?”
