EMDR Therapy

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing — one of the most well-researched treatments available for PTSD. Helps your nervous system process traumatic memories and move toward stability.

Internal Family Systems

IFS helps us explore and heal the different parts of yourself — protective parts, wounded parts, exiled emotions — and reconnect with your core Self as a source of clarity and compassion.

Polyvagal Therapy

A body-based approach rooted in understanding that the nervous system constantly scans for safety or threat. Applied Polyvagal Therapy builds your capacity to regulate your nervous system.

ACT Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps develop psychological flexibility — the ability to be present with difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them, and commit to meaningful action.

DBT Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches four core skill sets — mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness — concrete tools to manage overwhelming feelings.

Attachment-based Therapy

Explores how our earliest relationships shape the way we connect and regulate emotion throughout life — and heals the insecure patterns that show up as anxiety, avoidance, or difficulty trusting others.

Understanding Trauma

Have I experienced trauma?

Many people say "it wasn't that big of a deal" or "others have had it worse." But trauma happens when an experience continues to negatively affect your emotions and life — long after it's over.

Client Stories

What clients say

In two sessions, Thor has been a greater help to my mental health than any of my past therapists had done in months. Instead of dreading therapy every week, I actively look forward to it. Thor has completely changed my perspective on therapy and has become a huge support for me.

— Therapy Client

Thor is hands-down the best therapist I have ever found, and I've worked with a few. Over the last year he has helped me empower myself to make significant life changes that have drastically improved my quality of life, self esteem and self respect. I would recommend him to anyone.
