Lotus Psychotherapy
Compassionate And Effective Therapy To Support You Through Life’s Challenges
We can help you improve your mental health and enhance your quality of life. Our approach integrates traditional psychotherapy with innovative mind-body treatments to ensure you are supported in all dimensions of your well-being, leading to more balance and fulfillment.
We believe that humans are resilient and adaptive. We are holistically oriented and skilled in a variety of treatment modalities that we can utilize to match your unique circumstances.
No matter the life stage, whether you’re a tween, teen, young adult, or in midlife, we provide a safe place to navigate the changes and challenges life can bring. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or complex relationship issues, we can support you through this unsteady time and help you find your path forward.
We are trained in the latest evidence-based treatment modalities including:
● Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
● Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
● Cognitive Techniques
● Mindfulness
● Internal Family Systems (IFS)
● Gestalt Therapy
Our therapists work collaboratively and allow you to explore the emotions that run deep to reconnect with your physical self, to gain a sense of universal connectedness, and to deepen relationships with those who are most important to you.
We Are Inspired By The Story Of The Lotus Flower, A Story Of Renewal And Rebirth.
Beginning its life at the bottom of a muddy pond surrounded by darkness, the plant pushes its stalk up through the murky water to the surface, where its magnificent flower unfolds without any visible sign of the mud from which it came.
The flower’s story symbolizes all of us who have experienced suffering, felt stuck or stifled by adversity or trauma, and have overcome these obstacles by discovering new ways of living in the world.
At Lotus Psychotherapy, our mission is to help you rise above the adversity and obstacles you face so that you may move out of the “mud” and towards growth and renewal, blooming into the being that is inherently and authentically you.
We hope you will come and join us!
