I see adults who want to not just change their behaviors but transform their lives from the inside out. We do this together by using Accelerate Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) and slowing down to process overwhelming thoughts and feelings moment by moment. This often results in feeling (maybe for the first time) overwhelming emotions which are often brought on by trauma. We change by having corrective experiences not just more knowledge. I believe you’re not broken, you’re not missing something, and there is a valid reason you are feeling the way you are. Your story is unique and your healing will be to. I take an approach to therapy called Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP). It’s a mouth full I know. The roots of this framework include a belief in every person’s capacity to heal through the brain’s ability to change, it shines a light on relational attachment, elevates experience as a healing method, and creates trust in your emotions. You deserve to be listened to with empathy and attentiveness. Your life matters, your story matters, and your future matters.

It happened again, last night. You and your partner got into a big fight over something so small, you can’t even remember how it started. How did it get so big, so fast? You don’t know how to make it clear that you’re listening, you get it. You know you sound harsh, and that you’re defensive. But what else can you do? The past comes up, your character goes on trial, and whatever you say just makes things worse. And saying nothing feels like taking all the blame. You can’t let things go because you’ve done so much of that already. You’re in such a sensitive place that you’re losing hope, and that’s the scariest part.
