Holistic Psychotherapy MODALITIES

---

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. As an integrative psychotherapist, I draw from a range of evidence-based and experiential approaches to meet each person where they are—emotionally, mentally, and somatically (in the body). Each modality offers unique pathways for healing trauma, increasing self-awareness, and supporting meaningful transformation.

EMDR supports the brain in processing distressing memories that may keep trauma responses active. Through gentle bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements or tapping), it helps reduce emotional intensity and fosters more adaptive, balanced perspectives.

TF-CBT combines trauma education, coping skills, and cognitive restructuring to help individuals—especially those with trauma histories—reframe painful experiences and develop healthier patterns of thinking and responding.

CPT focuses on identifying and working through “stuck points,” or unhelpful beliefs that can form after trauma, such as guilt, shame, or mistrust. This structured approach helps restore clarity, self-compassion, and a sense of agency.

Narrative Therapy views you as the author of your own life story. Together, we explore how experiences have shaped your narrative and work toward re-authoring it in ways that reflect resilience, values, and growth.

Working with horses offers a powerful, nonverbal experience of emotional awareness and regulation. Horses respond to authenticity and presence, supporting clients in building trust, boundaries, and confidence.

Using symbolic figures and sand, this expressive process allows inner experiences to take form outside of language. It can be especially helpful for trauma, grief, and inner child work, often revealing insights beyond words.

These approaches use focused relaxation and visualization to access subconscious patterns. They can support anxiety reduction, emotional healing, and the reworking of limiting beliefs.

Creative expression and breath-based practices help bypass the analytical mind, allowing emotional release, grounding, and reconnection with intuition and vitality.

Rooted in traditional and indigenous wisdom systems, these approaches emphasize restoring balance across mind, body, and spirit. Through guided inner journeys and ritual-based work, clients may access insight, release emotional blocks, and reconnect with inner knowing.

Each modality serves a shared purpose: helping you reconnect with your authentic self. Integrative psychotherapy weaves together evidence-based methods and holistic practices to honor the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.
