About Us
Our Collective Approach
Our philosophy at The Collective stems from the importance of creating relationships with clients and then utilizing some of the most effective psychotherapy and holistic models available to clients today. It’s our believe that we cannot help you achieve mental wellness without looking at you in your totality. We prescribe some functional medicine practices and have referral and lab test options for those interested in incorporating a whole-being approach to psychosomatic healing.
We specialize in somatic psychotherapy—an approach that recognizes the powerful connection between the mind and body in the healing process. Using modalities like Brainspotting and biofeedback, we help clients access and process unresolved trauma stored in the nervous system. These evidence-informed techniques are designed to reduce distressing symptoms commonly associated with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other mental health challenges. By working with the body’s natural healing mechanisms, our clients experience lasting relief, improved emotional regulation, and greater resilience.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a psychotherapy that is based on the principle that the way we view a situation has less to do with the situation and more to do with our reaction to the situation itself. A key factor in CBT is helping clients change their unhealthy behavior by identifying their unhealthy beliefs from conclusions they have made from past experiences.
By combining body-based work that targets the physiological imprint of trauma with cognitive approaches that address how we interpret and respond to life experiences, we help clients achieve a more complete and sustainable healing process—one that honors both the mind and the body.
