Paige Thompson (she/her)

I specialize in supporting individuals through an attachment focused and trauma-informed approach. I offer a nonjudgmental space for you to access all aspects of your humanity and experiences with a sense of curiosity, compassion, and increased awareness. Together we’ll explore how your past experiences have shaped you and your present day life as well as your hopes for the future. I deeply value the quality of the therapeutic relationship as a safe space and an agent of change rooted in our common humanity and authentic connection. In addition to building a strong relational foundation, I will incorporate skills from mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when appropriate and my work is informed by the principles of Health At Every Size (HAES) and Intuitive Eating. I am also trained in EMDR and incorporate this in my practice.

I work with clients of various backgrounds and value understanding how systems of oppression may have impacted you throughout your life through a social justice lens. I believe we all deserve feel seen and cared for. I am an LGBTQ+ ally and am committed to anti-racism and further understanding my own privileges. While coping skills are important and needed, I believe lasting change comes from an increased awareness and understanding of the complexities and strengths within oneself. In my free time, you can find me spending quality time with family and friends, on the couch or on a walk with my rescue dog Daisy, trying new restaurants, or at the yoga studio.
