Individual Therapy
We offer a compassionate space to process your thoughts, emotions, and life experiences with a trained therapist, helping you build insight, develop coping tools, and cultivate steady, lasting growth.
What is Therapy?
Mental health therapy (psychotherapy) is a collaborative and confidential process where a licensed clinician supports individuals in exploring their thoughts, emotions, and life’s many challenges. Through this work, patients can strengthen emotional well-being, build effective coping strategies, and address a range of mental health concerns. Using evidence-based approaches, therapy helps individuals navigate stress, build insight and self-compassion, and shift patterns that no longer serve them.
Individual therapy is effective because of the safe and trusting therapeutic relationship with a therapist. At Embody, therapists provide a nonjudgemental, culturally curious, neuroaffirming and supportive environment. We'll work towards understanding more about your life experiences, improve relationships, and learn how to thrive in your environment. By addressing your concerns, we work together to increase your ability to live a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Trauma therapy
Trauma therapy is a specialized form of therapy designed to help individuals process and heal from experiences that have caused significant psychological distress. Trauma can take many forms, including:
Physical Trauma: Injuries or assaults that result in bodily harm.
Emotional or Psychological Trauma: Experiences such as emotional abuse, neglect, or the death of a loved one.
Sexual Trauma: Any form of sexual assault or abuse.
Complex Trauma: Ongoing exposure to traumatic events, often occurring in childhood, such as chronic neglect or recurring abuse.
Developmental Trauma: Trauma experienced during formative years that affects personal development and relationships.
At Embody, trauma therapy often includes body-based approaches to treatment that focus on increasing feelings of safety, nervous system regulation and resilience. Trauma therapy is beneficial because it provides a supportive environment where individuals can process emotions, learn coping strategies and increase self-compassion. Trauma therapy is an essential step toward healing, enabling individuals to process their experiences and integrate them into their lives, leading to improved mental and emotional well-being.
Grief therapy
Grief therapy is a specialized form of mental health treatment designed to help individuals navigate the emotions and symptoms that arise following a loss. At Embody, we offer support and guidance as individuals navigate the complexities of mourning and healing. There are many types of grief, including:
Acute Grief: This is the immediate response to loss, characterized by intense sorrow and emotional pain. It often includes crying, feelings of despair, and difficulty concentrating.
Anticipatory Grief: This type occurs before a loss happens, often experienced by caregivers of terminally ill patients. It involves preparing for loss and can lead to feelings of sadness and anxiety.
Complicated Grief: Some individuals may experience prolonged or intensified grief that disrupts their daily life. This can manifest as a constant longing for the deceased, inability to accept the loss, or preoccupation with thoughts of the deceased.
Disenfranchised Grief: This occurs when an individual’s grief is not acknowledged or supported by society. It may happen in cases of loss due to suicide, overdose, or a non-traditional relationship.
Collective Grief: This type involves shared grief within a community or group, often following a disaster, loss of a public figure, or a tragic event that affects many people.
Whether experiencing the death of a loved one, a relationship or a way of life, grief is an experience that deserves to be tended to. We provide grief therapy in various forms, including individual therapy and group therapy.
