Hi, I’m Peter Curts. I’m a therapist who believes that healing happens best in the context of safety, connection, and a bit of curiosity. I bring a steady, compassionate presence to the room—and just enough humor and realness to make things feel human. I use approaches like EMDR, IFS, and EFT to help people untangle old pain, reconnect with themselves, and create meaningful change that lasts.
Our first session is all about getting to know each other. You’ll have space to share what’s bringing you in, and I’ll help us find a comfortable rhythm. There’s no pressure to dive into the deep end right away—we’ll go at your pace, and I’ll always check in to make sure the process feels safe and useful. My goal is to create a space where you can exhale a little, maybe for the first time in a while.
Clients often tell me they feel deeply seen and never judged. I think my strength is helping people slow down and listen to the parts of themselves they usually ignore—whether it’s a protective part, a hurting part, or a part that just wants to rest. I’m here to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom, heal what hurts, and build stronger relationships with yourself and the people who matter most.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to work with me. I love working with people who feel “stuck”—emotionally, relationally, or just in life—and who are ready to get curious about what’s going on beneath the surface. You might carry anxiety, people-pleasing, past hurts, or relationship patterns that don’t feel like the whole story of who you are. Together, we’ll work toward healing and wholeness—not perfection, but something deeper and more honest.
Sometimes our minds hold onto painful experiences in ways that feel stuck. EMDR helps gently unlock those memories so they can be processed in a more adaptive way. I use EMDR to guide clients through healing past wounds without needing to relive every detail—tapping into the brain's natural ability to heal, find relief, and move forward with more peace.
We all have different parts within us—some protective, some wounded, some playful or wise. In IFS, I help clients build a compassionate relationship with those inner parts so they can feel more whole and less overwhelmed. Whether it's an anxious part or a perfectionist part, each one has a reason for being there, and together we can create space for healing and harmony inside.
Our deepest struggles often show up in our most important relationships. EFT helps us understand the emotional patterns that keep us stuck and gives us a way back to connection. Whether I’m working with individuals or couples, I use EFT to guide people toward feeling safer, more understood, and more emotionally connected with the people they care about.
