Available Treatment Options
Therapist interventions aim to reduce problematic behaviors, increase the ability to cope with stressful and triggering situations that lead to emotional disturbances, and develop tools and skills that boost self-confidence and stability.

It can take great courage to get uncomfortable and come to therapy. As a yoga instructor and counselor, I am often asking my students to acknowledge any uncomfortable feelings that come up in a posture, so that they might gain a better understanding of them and begin to push past it.

Neither forcing change nor avoiding...
