Individual Therapy
How Individual Therapy Can Help?
Individual therapy is a confidential, one-on-one space where you work with a therapist to explore your experiences, emotions, and patterns, with support that’s tailored to you.
In individual therapy, you can:
Focus fully on you in a private, supportive relationship
Explore thoughts, emotions, and body sensations with care and curiosity
Understand patterns and self-beliefs that may be keeping you stuck
Feel less alone as you face what’s been hard
Build self-compassion, clarity, and resilience
Move toward meaningful change in how you relate to yourself and others
In my work, individual therapy is also a relational, AEDP-informed experience — where safety and connection help emotions transform and support your return to wholeness.
What Is AEDP-Informed Therapy?
AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy) is a healing-oriented, attachment-focused approach that helps you safely explore and process emotions in the context of a caring, attuned relationship.
Rather than only talking about what’s happened, AEDP invites us to gently turn toward your felt experience — what you notice in your emotions and in your body — so that feelings that once felt overwhelming can be met with safety and begin to transform.
In AEDP-informed therapy, we focus on:
creating a sense of emotional safety and connection
undoing aloneness so you’re not facing hard things by yourself
understanding the adaptive wisdom of your emotions
softening old patterns like self-criticism, avoidance, or disconnection
helping you reconnect with a felt sense of wholeness and resilience
Many people find that this work leads to more self-compassion, emotional clarity, and a deeper sense of being grounded in who they are.
How EMDR Fits In
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy designed to help people heal from the emotional distress caused by traumatic or overwhelming life experiences.
Sometimes memories don’t get fully processed and remain “stuck” in the nervous system. When this happens, reminders in the present can trigger intense emotions, body sensations, or negative beliefs about yourself, even when the danger has passed.
EMDR helps the brain’s natural healing process resume so these experiences can be integrated in a new way. Over time, many people notice that memories become:
less emotionally intense
easier to think about without feeling overwhelmed
connected to more adaptive beliefs about themselves and the world
EMDR can help:
reduce emotional and physical distress linked to past events
shift negative self-beliefs like “I’m not safe” or “I’m not enough”
create more space for calm, clarity, and choice in daily life
EMDR doesn’t erase what happened — it helps you remember without the same emotional charge, so the past no longer feels like it’s happening in the present.
We move at a pace that feels safe and supportive, and EMDR is always integrated thoughtfully within the larger therapeutic relationship.
Together…
Together, AEDP and EMDR support healing on both an emotional and neurological level. They help you feel safe in relationship while your brain processes and releases what’s been holding you back. This pairing allows deep emotional transformation and trauma healing to unfold side by side.
