Our Trauma + Chronic Illness-informed Approach
You shouldn't have to spend half your session educating your medical team. Here, you don't. And getting started shouldn't take everything you've got.
1. Schedule Your First Session
Getting started is simple. Choose a time that fits your schedule, fill out a brief intake form, and let us know a little about what brought you here. This step sets the foundation for a personalized approach that meets your needs.
2. Share Your Story
Your first session is a safe, confidential space to talk about your experiences, challenges, and goals. We’ll listen carefully and help you explore what matters most, so we can understand how to support you effectively.
3. Create a Personalized Plan
Based on your goals and circumstances, we’ll develop a tailored plan that outlines strategies, exercises, and next steps. This ensures therapy is practical, actionable, and aligned with your life.
4. Grow and Move Forward
With ongoing support, you’ll apply the tools and insights you gain in sessions to real-life situations. Each step is designed to help you feel more empowered, balanced, and confident in your journey.
Our Clinical Approach
Living with chronic illness is real, even when others have dismissed your symptoms as "just stress" or "all in your head."
If you're neurodivergent, you may know this dismissal twice over with years of being told you were too sensitive, too much, or not trying hard enough, long before anyone offered real answers.
We see it differently. Trauma, illness, and neurodivergence all shape how your mind and body work together. Your fatigue, pain, racing heart, and sensory overwhelm are your body’s way of trying to communicate. And your nervous system holds onto these experiences in ways that shape your energy, mood, and stress response.
So in our sessions, we work with all of you: physical, mental, emotional, and neurological. Using approaches like Somatic Experiencing and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)—adapted to fit how your brain and body actually work, not how they're "supposed" to—we'll help your body feel safer, build practical coping tools, and create a life with room for both your struggles and your strengths.
You deserve a therapist who believes you. Here, your symptoms are real, your neurotype isn't a problem to fix, your body's wisdom is respected, and healing happens at the pace that’s right for you.
