Hi there, I'm Octavia!
Life is often complex and confusing, and the pain of trauma is intense. Trauma can be one event that scares you and makes you feel helpless, or a chain of them that teaches your body that the world is not to be trusted. Anxiety is a daily reality, and moving through life is like moving through a room full of carnival mirrors and moving mazes.
My focus
I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, divorce, domestic violence, grief, life transitions, sexual abuse, and trauma/PTSD. My goal is to help you find peace, safety, and renewed potential.
My approach
In therapy, we can explore anxiety together, understand it, and learn how to ease it. We can learn how it gets triggered and see how the past has shaped the perceptions of the brain and body. My approach draws upon attachment-based therapy, trauma-focused therapy, and EMDR to help you process trauma and relieve anxiety.
