At Crossings, we are aware that the single most important factor in the process of healing is the therapist-client relationship. Our work comes alive in the compassionate connection between therapist and client, a partnership in which the client’s background and history are seen, acknowledged, and validated. With this empathic understanding, we adapt our approach to the unique needs of each individual client. We build trust through transparency, humility, and compassion, and we strive to maintain those values throughout the therapeutic process.

Crossings therapists are trained in a number of evidenced-based methods, including Somatic Experiencing, cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, positive psychology, and mindfulness-based techniques. Because we know that trauma symptoms often manifest in the body—sometimes in the form of muscle tension, reflexes, rigidity, or aches and pains—our work brings clients into greater awareness of sensations in the body and draws on the strengths and resources already within each person.

Our therapists specialize in:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Physical, sexual, and/or verbal abuse
  • Grief and loss
  • Sexuality and shame
  • Relationship issues
  • Early childhood attachment disturbances
  • Women’s issues
  • Self-esteem
  • LGBTQIA+
  • Racial trauma
  • Intergenerational trauma
  • Complex PTSD

We invite you to step into the therapeutic space at Crossings, where you will encounter the compassion, empathy, and somatic skills that characterize Crossings and our practitioners.
