  • Somatic Experiencing- reconnecting with your body and nervous system

  • Anti-Diet approach to eating disorders- rooted in respect and freedom

  • Equine Assisted Services- through the Natural Lifemanship model

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Identifying and reshaping unhelpful thought patterns to create lasting changes in mood and behavior.

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Integrating acceptance and change strategies while building skills for emotional regulation, mindfulness, distress tolerance, and healthier relationships.

  • Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT): Uncovering and transforming irrational beliefs into empowering perspectives to support resilience and self- compassion.
