About Our Clients
You are an individual adult and a couple who are highly sensitive empaths and neurodiverse. As creatives and high-achieving professionals, you desire to heal from your childhood attachment injuries and build safe, connected, and meaningful relationships. You've experienced grief and loss, encountered massive life transitions, and carried various obvious and not-so-obvious marginalized identities. You're not looking for temporary bandaids and believe sustainable healing is worth investing in.
Our Background and Approach
Trained and experienced in traditional talk therapy (CBT, ACT, Gottman Method) and experiential and process-oriented modalities (IFS, EFT, and IFIO), we specialize in trauma recovery, identity exploration, and deepened connection between neurodivergent couples and couples encountering major life transitions such as parenthood. We are a small team of therapists who are like-minded in our approaches and unique in our histories, identities, and stories. We invite our clients to find their best-fit therapist with us (www.therapyonfig.com/our-team) We believe people are experts of their own experiences and that long-lasting change is built on a compassionate and trusting relationship with themselves first. Through therapy, our clients find that they are no longer overwhelmed and shut down by the parts of them that feel angry, jealous, depressed, guilty, resentful, etc., and experience not only appreciation for these parts but also the ability to heal in a lasting way.
More About the People We Treat
We believe people are multifaceted with intersecting identities that carry different lived experiences and are filtered through cultural, gender, and neurodiverse systems. Because no two people are the same, therapy should be highly tailored and insightful to include complexities and nuances that are specific to you. While validating ongoing external stressors and systemic injustices, we work with the relationship you have with all parts of yourself. From a trauma-informed lens, we ALL have the capacity to heal, and our authentic self isn't cultivated or broken to begin with. We can unburden from expired beliefs and extreme behaviors and access inner wisdom, self-compassion, and self-trust. When we can look beyond the surface of anger, anxiety, and jealousy and understand that they come from core pain, missed connections, and real desires. We know that, at the heart, these emotions, thoughts, and behaviors are only as extreme as they need to be to survive in the world they've been in.
