Jeremy works with teens and adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or worn down by anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, or substance use. Many of his clients come to therapy feeling disconnected from themselves, unsure how to move forward, or frustrated that past attempts at help haven’t fully worked.
Jeremy brings a calm, steady presence to therapy and focuses on helping clients feel safe, understood, and capable of meaningful change. His approach is practical, compassionate, and personalized — meeting each person where they are rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all method.
How Jeremy Works
Jeremy uses an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored to each client’s needs. Therapy with Jeremy often focuses on:
-
Understanding patterns that keep clients feeling stuck
-
Building emotional awareness and coping skills
-
Processing past experiences that continue to impact the present
-
Strengthening confidence, self-trust, and healthier ways of relating
For clients working through trauma, Jeremy is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)and other trauma-informed approaches. He also offers non-verbal and experiential tools for clients who find that talking alone doesn’t fully capture what they’re feeling — especially when emotions are hard to put into words.
Jeremy’s goal is to help clients move forward with greater clarity, stability, and a stronger sense of control over their lives.
