Book Your Introductory Assessment

Finding a therapist to help you unpack and work through trauma and distress can be— overwhelming. In our first session, we will explore your symptoms, history and levels of dysregulation to create an integrative treatment plan specific to your story. We work together to create a safe and stable internal environment to process trauma and bring you to a place where you can look forward to the future.
