Therapy Services
Embark on a journey of healing and self-discovery with individual and group counseling services at Healing Pathways.
At Healing Pathways, we specialize in guiding individuals through the profound healing process from both Big T Traumas and Small T Traumas. Big T traumas refer to significant, often life-threatening events such as natural disasters, physical or sexual assault, or severe accidents that profoundly impact an individual's sense of safety and well-being. Small T traumas refer to less overtly catastrophic events, such as emotional neglect, ongoing verbal abuse, or subtle forms of invalidation, which can still have a significant and lasting impact on an individual's psychological well-being.

Modalities
In the context of therapy, a modality refers to a specific method or approach used by therapists to treat clients. It encompasses the theories, techniques, and strategies employed to promote mental well-being.
Different modalities cater to various needs and preferences of clients, allowing for more tailored treatment plans. The approaches we use at Healing Pathways include EMDR, Prolonged Exposure, Trauma Incident Reduction, Art Therapy, and Traditional Talk Therapy.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a powerful approach we utilize to help individuals process past traumatic experiences. Our trained therapists guide you through this evidence-based technique, facilitating the reprocessing of distressing memories, leading to resolution and relief. Experience the transformative benefits of EMDR alongside a certified clinician who prioritizes your well-being and recovery.
Prolonged Exposure
Prolonged Exposure Therapy is one of the few specialized approaches we employ to address past traumas. Through structured sessions, our certified clinician guides you gently through confronting and processing distressing memories, empowering you to overcome avoidance and reclaim control over your life.
Trauma Incident Reduction
Trauma Incident Reduction (TIR) Therapy offers a powerful pathway to healing from past traumas. Through a structured and empathetic approach, TIR helps individuals confront and resolve traumatic experiences in a safe and supportive environment. By revisiting and processing these incidents in a controlled setting, clients often experience profound breakthroughs, leading to emotional liberation, cognitive clarity, empowerment, resilience, and restored wellbeing.
Art Therapy
Incorporating the transformative power of art, our practice offers art therapy as a modality for healing and self-expression. Through the creative process, clients can explore emotions, confront challenges, and discover new insights in a non-verbal and deeply personal way. Guided by our skilled art therapist Sonia Patricia Varela, this unique approach fosters growth, resilience, and a deeper connection to one's inner world.
Traditional Talk Therapy
Our practice offers traditional Talk Therapy as a foundational modality for exploring and processing thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a supportive environment. Through open dialogue and active listening, our therapists collaborate with clients to navigate challenges, gain clarity, and cultivate positive change. With a focus on empathy and understanding, talk therapy empowers individuals to build resilience and live more authentically.
Group Counseling for Adults
Group Counseling is an opportunity to connect with others who have been through similar life events like yourself, and challenges the thought of “I’m alone.”
We are not currently running groups, but we encourage you to express interest in topics you would like to explore.
