I work with my patients to help them understand longstanding patterns in thinking and relating, with the goal of helping them experience increasing freedom and satisfaction in life. I see adolescents and adults dealing with life transitions, anxiety, and high-functioning neurodivergence.

Early in life we develop ways of being that were essential for survival at one point, but can create difficulties in work, relationships, and other aspects of our lives in the present. We are often unaware (unconscious) of these patterns or ways of being in the world that we develop over time. Through warm and collaborative work I help individuals and couples address these difficulties. I have extensive experience working with people with relationship difficulties, trauma, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, depression, and anxiety

As a therapist, I practice with the mentality that ‘all parts are welcome.’ Every person has many unique ‘parts’ based on their experiences, natural temperaments, and relationships with others. Each of your parts is important and deserves to be heard, even the parts you struggle with or cause problems in life. In therapy, we will build a relationship so that you feel safe to talk about all of the parts that make you, you. It’s my job to be curious, notice patterns, and process alongside you. Together, we will work towards developing inner harmony and self-awareness.

I am a psychodynamically informed therapist who is committed to helping clients live with more ease and joy in the face of suffering. I have experience working with adult clients and couples across the lifespan with a variety of presenting concerns including anxiety and panic, depression, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, life stage and relationship stress, and forms of developmental, religious, and sexual trauma.

In my therapeutic approach, I honor the depth of human experience and view each person as more than just a collection of symptoms. My approach is holistic, welcoming the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of life, as well as each person’s connection to the world around them. A fundamental component of successful therapy is that the relationship feels warm, safe, and free of any and all judgment.

So many of us move through our lives like we’re walking through a familiar room in the dark. We feel our way through routines, relationships, and roles, only to keep stubbing our toe on the same painful patterns. Therapy, to me, is about gently turning on the lights. It’s a chance to slow down, to notice what’s here with compassion, to understand how we got here, and to explore new paths forward that don’t hurt so much.

It’s never too early or too late to begin therapy. When the time feels right, this can be a space just for you, to slow down, reflect, and begin to make sense of what’s been held inside. Therapy offers the chance to be fully seen and supported by someone in your corner, showing up with kindness, accountability, curiosity, and hope.

I have worked in a variety of clinical settings and have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, families and couples. My work is strongly influenced by psychoanalytic theory in combination with a commitment to social justice by emphasizing intersectional, anti-oppressive, spiritual and multicultural frameworks. I also incorporate yoga, expressive arts, play therapy, and somatic therapy to provide other mediums in which my clients can communicate and heal.

I have experience working with children, youth and adults in a variety of modalities including individual, couples and family therapy. My therapeutic approach is individualized, culturally responsive, trauma informed and influenced by developmental, attachment-based, and psychodynamic theories. I view the therapeutic relationship and safety therein as a central part of the treatment process. I am both a clinical supervisor and a psychotherapist.

Often the things that cause us pain in the present are connected to pain from the past. I build safe and collaborative relationships with my patients. Together we will work to understand the many facets of life and relationships that cause you pain thus helping you to make sense of your own mind so you can live your fullest life.

Hello and welcome! I know finding a therapist can feel daunting, so I hope to provide a sense of who I am, how I work, and what you can expect so it will feel like less of a guessing game.

I work with preteens, teens, and adults on a variety of issues, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, intimate partner violence, religious trauma, challenges related to neurodiversity, anxiety, and depression. I am also passionate about working with members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. Treatment approaches depend on YOU, the client, and what works best for you. We may utilize feminist and multicultural theory, EMDR, WET (written exposure therapy), psychodynamic approaches, or elements of CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) depending on your needs and preferences. Most importantly, I want to know the real you and create a space where you feel safe to speak your truth. If you are struggling to figure out who you are, we can certainly work on that too!

I enjoy working with teens and adults who are looking for individual therapy or family therapy. I have experience supporting clients through a range of challenges including relationship struggles, trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, identity development, adoption, divorce, school difficulties, and grief/loss.

Some people find themselves feeling stuck with certain thoughts and feelings. Others find themselves repeating behaviors that lead to unproductive and problematic situations in their life. Therapy is a process where these concerns can be discussed and worked through from a nonjudgmental standpoint. My therapeutic approach is to assist you in reaching your personal or relationship goals with more effective ways of being. The adolescents and adults I work with are understood as individuals that have their own unique attitudes, beliefs, and experiences.

My practice focuses on creating a warm and welcoming environment which encourages you to bring your full self, whatever that may look like in the moment. I have a deep respect for the therapeutic process and feel privileged to walk beside you on your journey. Slowing down and allowing space for whatever is present is not something we are often encouraged to do in our day-to-day lives, and I believe it is paramount to healing. I work from a trauma-informed, person-centered, holistic perspective and am committed to anti-oppressive practices.

Modern-day therapy can often feel like it’s just scratching the surface of the issues you face, attempting to stamp out the symptoms you’re experiencing by using worksheets and behavioral strategies. I see therapy differently. My goal as a therapist is to truly know you as a person, and for you to then understand yourself better.

I offer individual therapy to clients of all ages who are looking to ease symptoms of anxiety and depression, improve relationships and communication, or who simply wish to live a more mindful and connected life. I approach treatment from a multiculturally competent lens, and aim to offer gender-affirming care to my clients. I offer a non-judgmental space where I strive to build a strong foundation of trust with my clients so that we can work together to gain insight on life’s stressors and struggles from a client-centered, strength-based treatment perspective.

Living out of alignment with who we really are can leave us feeling lost, stuck, and alone. Many of us learned to play certain roles to find care and acceptance as children, but what kept us safe then ends up no longer serving us – and ultimately fuels our suffering.

The relationships we form early in life impact how we communicate with ourselves and with others today. Ways we have learned to cope with challenges in the past may no longer be effective in serving our current needs. Viewing the self as comprised of mind, body, and soul, I aim to understand who you have been and who you want to be. Exploring what is personally important and meaningful is a unique process for every person. I believe that there are multiple solutions to a problem and that you are the expert on yourself.

We all learn through early relationships and experiences how to communicate with others, ourselves, and how to cope and engage with our reality—-whatever that may look like. Sometimes over the course of our lives, what we’ve learned no longer serves us, our needs, or our desires. I believe that therapy serves as a space to become aware of who we’ve been and who we want to be, while engaging in new and healthy dynamics.

I currently focus on working with teens and adults who are experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, disordered eating and relationship concerns. I aim to create an environment where the client feels supported and empowered in order to explore past and present experiences. I draw from a relational psychodynamic theory and my work focuses on creating tolerance for difficult emotions and increasing self understanding.

I enjoy working with kids, teens, and adults and offer individual and family therapy. My therapeutic approach is person-centered, as I believe people, no matter the age, first and foremost need to feel heard and understood. I create a supportive and non-judgmental environment for clients through humor, kindness, and compassion, and try to make therapy as accessible as possible for all people.

I am a psychodynamically-informed therapist with experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I work with a broad range of clinical issues, and have a particular interest in working with anxiety, relationship stress, codependency, people-pleasing, perfectionism, disordered eating, and body image. I have former experience working in a University counseling center, and I particularly enjoy working with college students. My work is explicitly anti-racist, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed.

It often feels like silencing what troubles us is less painful, whether we do so consciously or unconsciously--I join with clients to access this part of ourselves with great care. My approach encourages exploring that which we often avoid, through a relational, anti-oppressive approach, to treat root causes of distressing symptoms.

I'm an abolitionist therapist and work from a life-affirming, anti-pathologizing lens. I am a white, cis-gender, straight woman that was born in the United States. I hold many privileged identities and am committed to working in partnership with you and others to create collective liberation for all of us. I believe in interrelatedness and accountability.

I have experience working with all ages in individual therapy, and have a particular interest in working with children and their families, teenagers, and young adults, navigating the unique challenges of these developmental phases. I am a psychodynamically oriented therapist and also incorporate play therapy, expressive therapies, mindfulness techniques, and somatic principles into my work. With warmth, curiosity, and openness, I strive to create a space where you can feel safe to invite all aspects of yourself for us to explore. I believe our current pain, struggle, or dissatisfaction is often rooted in our past experiences, and by exploring and understanding your experience together, we can free you up to be your most authentic self, moving through life with greater ease and lessened suffering. I am honored to partner with my patients in this difficult and rewarding investment in yourself.

The therapy space becomes something different to each of us. Sometimes we are looking to accomplish a specific goal and other times, looking for a place to be intentionally present with ourselves for a while. Whatever brings you to this moment, finding a therapist that feels compatible with that vision is often a part of that process.

I specialize in providing LGBTQIA2S+ competent and affirming psychotherapy, with a focus on gender queer/trans/non-binary adolescents, adults, and the people that love them. Some other areas of specialization and/or interest include: relational difficulties with partners/family/friends, borderline personality disorder, neurodivergence, codependency, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, identity exploration, existentialism, and grief.

I offer individual therapy for children, adolescents, and adults. I focus on building a comfortable and trusting relationship so that together we can explore and come to better understand the client. This involves exploring current problems and stressors as well as past experiences that may be contributing to your ways of thinking of feeling.

To be a part of a process in which clients heal wounds, enact change, and grow as humans is nothing short of magical – it’s why I do what I do and I strive to offer a judgment free, genuine, and accepting place to do those things. I deeply believe in the value of human relationships, the power of empathy and sincerity, and I see people as experts of their own lives, capable of more than we tend to believe.
