Welcome to Sage Valley Therapy. My practice offers evidence-based treatment approaches tailored to meet the individual needs of my clients with compassionate care. I specialize in individual one-on-one psychotherapy for the treatment of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma, and obsessive-compulsive disorder for children (10+), adolescents, and adults.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) integrated with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is recognized for the gold standard of evidenced based treatment for these disorders. These models are recognized for efficacy, with a substantial number of clients achieving marked symptom reduction after just a few sessions. Nonetheless, the treatment duration may vary, as certain individuals may require a more extended period of therapy to fulfill their goals and manage symptoms.

Shame-sensitive therapy incorporates a deep understanding of shame at every level of treatment, offering a distinct and holistic path to recovery. Shame-sensitive therapy stands out for its dedicated focus on the emotion of shame and its effects. This therapy puts the spotlight on shame, acknowledging how deeply it can affect one’s mental health and behaviors.

Trauma-informed therapy is a therapeutic approach that acknowledges the extensive effects of trauma and understands potential recovery pathways. It prioritizes the client’s physical, psychological, and emotional well-being, aiding in their journey towards regaining autonomy and empowerment.
