Anxiety can be a healthy response to life’s uncertainties. But too much of it and you might have racing thoughts, feel nervous and on edge. Anxiety can show up in social situations, cause avoidance, and even impact your sleep and physical health.

We can discover and process the thoughts and behaviors keeping anxiety around.

Whether you are heading off to college, managing divorce or finding yourself an empty-nester, transitions can bring out conflicted feelings.

Therapy can be helpful for sorting out those feelings, provide support and empower you through your new chapter.

You may recall your childhood as a chapter when your emotional needs were not met, feelings dismissed by ill-equipped caregivers, or taking on adulting before your 18th birthday.

These wounds can be healed and we can help you break the cycle and move forward in your life, together.

If you are struggling with falling asleep, staying asleep or waking up too early, there is hope.

Based on our consultation, Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Insomnia may be appropriate to address insomnia and help you catch some Zzzs.

Treatment is based upon the concept that chronic insomnia lasting from months to years is maintained by our physical factors, behaviors, surroundings and emotions towards sleep, such as anxiety.

CBT-I targets the factors that have been shown to cause acute insomnia (the sleeplessness that comes to all of us from time to time) to become chronic and seemingly take on “a life of its own.”

During a life-threatening emergency, you may have felt fear and anger, urges to fight, run, or freeze. These are typical and safe responses. After, the brain may or may not know when the danger is over. If it takes longer for you to know this, this may be PTSD.

Trauma can impact your ability to make healthy decisions and regulate emotions.

After a consultation and initial assessment, Cognitive Processing Therapy, a 12 session program, may be offered.
