Therapy Services Offered Virtually Throughout Rhode Island
Weekly Individual & EMDR Therapy
Weekly individual therapy supports adults navigating trauma, chronic stress, identity transitions, and long-standing emotional patterns. EMDR may be integrated into ongoing work when appropriate, with attention to pacing and nervous system regulation. This approach is designed for clients who want depth and continuity without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
Parent, Co-Parent, & Couples Therapy
Couples therapy and co-parenting counseling support partners and parents navigating communication challenges, relational stress, and the emotional demands of family life. This work is especially supportive when trauma histories, neurodivergence, or differing nervous system needs are present. Sessions emphasize emotional safety, clarity, and steadiness in the therapeutic process.
Neurodivergence & Burnout Support
This area of the practice supports neurodivergent adults and parents experiencing burnout, masking fatigue, sensory overload, or identity-related stress. Therapy is explicitly affirming and grounded in an understanding of how chronic demand and environmental mismatch affect nervous system functioning. Many clients seek this work while wanting support that feels accessible, validating, and sustainable.
ADHD Evaluations for Adults & Teens
ADHD evaluations are offered for adults and teens seeking clarity, understanding, and accurate diagnosis. The assessment process is comprehensive and affirming, with attention to developmental history, differential diagnosis, and real-world functioning. Evaluations are conducted virtually and designed to support informed, compassionate next steps.
EMDR Intensives for Individuals & Couples
Virtual EMDR intensives offer a focused option for individuals and couples who want to engage in deeper trauma or relational work within a contained timeframe. The intensive format allows for continuity and momentum while remaining collaborative and carefully paced.
