Therapy can be a good fit if you are dealing with anxiety, depression, social anxiety, anger that comes out fast, obsessive compulsive patterns, perfectionism, grief, relationship issues, or stress related to LGBTQ issues and identity.
If it is affecting sleep, work, relationships, or your ability to enjoy life, it’s worth getting support.
How we approach therapy here
We keep therapy pretty practical. Sessions are structured, and the focus is on helping you make real changes you can feel in your day-to-day life. Depending on what you are dealing with, we may use approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, rational emotive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and Choice Theory with Reality Therapy.
What that looks like in real life is this: you and your therapist figure out what is keeping the pattern alive, then you start practicing new ways of responding until they feel more natural. That could mean learning how to interrupt anxiety spirals, easing up on harsh self-talk, changing avoidance habits, building emotional regulation skills, or improving communication so the same fight doesn’t keep happening on repeat.
If medication ever feels like it could help, we don’t prescribe. But we can coordinate with approved psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners when it makes sense.
