Our Sixteen Clinical Focus Areas

Sixteen focus areas, one clinical spine: relational psychodynamic, trauma-informed care, delivered by the clinicians who specialize in each. Filter by what brings you in.

01 / 16mood and anxiety

Anxiety therapy that goes beyond coping skills

A relational, psychodynamic, and trauma-informed approach for adults whose worry, racing thoughts, or panic are not resolved by coping skills alone.

02 / 16mood and anxiety

Depression therapy that goes beyond symptom management

We treat depression as a signal, not a symptom checklist, for adults navigating major, persistent, or treatment-resistant depression.

03 / 16trauma and PTSD

PTSD and Complex PTSD Therapy That Treats the Whole Person

Phase-based, relational, trauma-informed care for single-incident, developmental, and relational trauma, with select clinicians trained in EMDR, IFS, and PE.

04 / 16trauma and PTSD

Trauma-Informed Therapy That Treats the Root, Not the Label

The clinical lens through which all of our work is conducted: we ask "what happened to you?" rather than "what is wrong with you?"

05 / 16life transitions

Care for every kind of loss: death, traumatic loss, perinatal loss, relational endings, and the losses the world does not recognize as grief.

Relationship Therapy That Rewrites the Blueprint, Not Just the Ending

Individual, relational psychodynamic work on the patterns you carry into every connection.

Work on the anxious, avoidant, and disorganized patterns formed in your earliest relationships, toward earned secure attachment.

08 / 16relational and attachment

Relational care for the adult consequences of childhood emotional neglect: chronic emptiness, people-pleasing, perfectionism, a harsh inner critic.
