WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

Support Doesn't Have to Look Just One Way

Different seasons of life call for different kinds of support -a steady ongoing relationship, focused depth on one thing or help staying connected between appointments.

Each option below is built for a different kind of season. Not sure which one fits? Skip to the bottom-we can figure it out together.

ONGOING & RELATIONAL

Individual Therapy

For the person who knows how to keep going—even when something inside is asking them to stop.

You handle the pressure, meet the deadline, care for the people around you, and find a way to make things work. But constantly overriding your emotions, needs, and limits can show up as burnout, anxiety, chronic stress, people-pleasing, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling depleted and disconnected in a life that looks full from the outside.

Our work goes beyond managing symptoms. Together, we explore the emotional, relational, and body-based patterns underneath how you’ve learned to function so you can respond to yourself and your life with more choice, rather than automatically pushing, performing, accommodating, or holding everything together.

Good fit if you want ongoing support to feel more present and connected, honor your needs and limits, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others—without losing the ambition and capability that are already part of you.

NERVOUS SYSTEM-FOCUSED & IMMERSIVE

Somatic Intensives

When you understand the pattern—but your body keeps repeating it.

You may already know you overwork, overthink, take on too much, struggle to rest, or hold yourself to impossible standards. But when pressure hits, your body still knows one way forward: brace, mobilize, perform, push, and keep going.

Somatic Intensives offer focused, nervous-system-centered work around one of these deeply learned patterns. Through concentrated sessions and personalized between-session practices, we work with how the pattern lives in your body not just what you know about it intellectually.

The goal is greater flexibility: to meet pressure without living in it, recognize your limits before you’re depleted, and have access to rest, connection, boundaries, and support alongside your drive.

Good fit if there’s a specific pattern you’re ready to work with more intentionally and you want focused somatic work that continues between sessions.

BETWEEN APPOINTMENTS

Between-Session Support

Because life doesn’t only happen during your therapy appointment.

It’s one thing to recognize a pattern in therapy. It’s another to notice it when you’re overwhelmed, overextended, having a difficult conversation, or feeling the familiar pull to push through and take care of everything yourself.

Between-Session Support offers an additional layer of connection between appointments to help you bring the work of therapy into your everyday life pausing, noticing what’s happening, reconnecting with what you’re practicing, and making room for a different response.

Good fit if you want more continuity between sessions and support practicing new ways of responding when old patterns show up in real time.
