Hi, I’m Macy Peterson, a licensed therapist with a strong passion for helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate grief, and build a meaningful life beyond pain.

My practice offers structured treatment programs, including EMDR intensives, pain management programs, and immersive healing experiences tailored to your unique needs.
I believe in the deep connection between the mind and body and incorporate physical movement, self-defense principles, and mindfulness-based techniques into my work when beneficial. Whether you're seeking relief from trauma, chronic pain, or emotional distress, I provide a direct yet compassionate approach to help you heal and move forward.
